Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle DCE is similar to EGF
CE/EF=DE/EG
Substitute
(8x-1)/21=(6x+3)/17
Cross multiply
(8x−1)*(17)=(6x+3)*(21)
136x−17=126x+63
Subtract 126x from both sides
10x−17=63
Add 17 to both sides.
10x−17+17=63+17
10x=80
Divide both sides by 10.
x=8
Answer:
∠ 1,3,5,7 = 32°
∠2,4,6,8,= 148°
Step-by-step explanation:
From the figure attached,
AB and CD are two parallel lines and another transverse line is intersecting these line at two distinct points.
Since, m∠1 = 32°,
∠1 and ∠4 are supplementary angles [Linear pair of angles]
m∠1 + m∠4 = 180°
32° + m∠4 = 180°
m∠4 = 180° - 32°
m∠4 = 148°
therefore,
m∠1,3,5,7 = 32°
m∠2,4,6,8,= 148°
So you want to start to factor so you get (x²+2)(x²-7) = 0. Now set each () to 0, so you get (x²+2) = 0 and (x²-7)=0. The first ends with +√2i and -√2i, the second ends with +√7 and -√7
1. 1 1/3
2. 10 7/8
3. 4 7/15
4. 4/7
I hope this helps. :)
