8 0

Answer:

The number is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the word problem as an equation.

The sum of (we will be adding.), half of a number (we can use x, this will be written as x/2.) and double the number (this will be written as 2x) is 20.

To find the number, solve the equation.

x/2 + 2x = 20

Multiply both sides by 2.

x + 4x = 40

Combine terms.

5x = 40

Divide both sides.

x = 8.

Given that ABCD is a rhombus, find the value of x.<br> (X+14)

Kay [80]

Answer:

option B. $x=38^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

1) The two diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular

2) The sum of the interior angles in any triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

Let

O ----> the intersection point of the diagonals of the rhombus

In the right triangle OAD

$x^o+(x+14)^o+90^o=180^o$

solve for x

$x^o+(x+14)^o=90^o$

$2x=90^o-14^o$

$2x=76^o$

$x=38^o$

A dialation produces a shape that is the same shape but different size. so we draw a new triangle about point B where A'B=2AB
so B and B' are the same and
AB and BC will be parts of the sides. and A' is located on the ray

½ (8x+4) = ¼ (8+16x)

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Both sides of the equation are equal to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

½ (8x+4) = ¼ (8+16x)

(1/2*8x) + (1/2*4) = (1/4*8) + (1/4*16x)

4x + 2 = 2 + 4x

(4x - 4x) + 2 = 2 (+ 4x - 4x)

2 = 2
