17x-10=10-3x

2x-10=10-3x

2x+6=4x-2

Solve for X

Step-by-step explanation:

17x+3x=20

x=1

2x+3x=20

x=4

4x-2x=8

x=2

Answer1: X=60

Answer2: X=4

Answer3: X=4

I hope this helps.

If the line segment is perpendicular to a line with the slope of -4, that means the line segment has a slope of 1/4.

First let's make an equation for the line segment using the slope of 1/4 and the point at (2,6) to find the final piece, the y-intercept

y = mx + b
6 = 1/4(2) + b
6 = 2/4 + b
24/4 = 2/4 + b
22/4 = b

y = 1/4 x + 22/4
6 = 1/4(2) + 22/4
6 = 2/4 + 22/4
6 = 24/4
6 = 6 <-- proves that this equation is correct

Now you may plug in the x to find y. ( 8 , y )
y = 1/4(8) + 22/4
y = 8/4 + 22/4
y = 30/4 = 15/2 = 7.5
