Answer:

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Add 1/4x to both sides</u>

-\frac{1}{4}x - 12 = x + 3

-12 - \frac{1}{4}x + \frac{1}{4}x = x + 3 + \frac{1}{4}x

-12 = \frac{5}{4}x + 3

<u>Step 2:  Subtract 3 from both sides</u>

-12 - 3 = \frac{5}{4}x + 3 - 3

-15 = \frac{5}{4}x

<u>Step 3:  Multiply both sides by 4/5</u>

-15*\frac{4}{5}=\frac{5}{4}x * \frac{4}{5}

-12 = x

Answer:  x = -12

Answer: x = -18.75

-1/4x - 12 = x + 3

Add 12x from both sides to get
-1/4x = x + 15

Then minus x from both sides
-5/4x = 15

The divide by -5/4 to get
x = -18.75

What additional information could be used to prove ΔABC ≅ ΔMQR using SAS? Check all that apply.
emmasim [6.3K]
To prove that <span>ΔABC ≅ ΔMQR using SAS, we show that two sides with the intersection angle are congruent.

From the diagram, it is shown that CA is congruent to RM.

From the first option, given that </span>m∠A = 64° and AB = MQ = 31 cm, then we have CA = RM, AB = MQ, and CAB = RMQ (i.e. m∠A = <span>m∠M = 64°). </span>
This shows that the first option is correct.

From the second option, given that CB = MQ = 29 cm, then we have CA = RM, <span>CB = MQ, but ACB is not congruent to RMQ.
Thus the second option in not correct.

From the third option, </span>m∠Q = 56° and CB ≅ RQ, then we have CA = RM, CB = RQ, ACB = 60<span>°, but we do not know the value of MRQ.
Thus the third option is not correct.

From the fourth option, </span>m∠R = 60° and AB ≅ MQ, then we have <span>CA = RM, AB = MQ, RMQ = </span>64<span>°, but we do not know the value of CAB.
Thus the fourth option is not correct.

From the fifth option</span>, <span>AB = QR = 31 cm, then we have </span><span>CA = RM, </span><span>AB = QR, but we do not know the value of CAB or MRQ.
Thus, the fifth option is not correct.

Therefore, the additional information that </span><span>could be used to prove ΔABC ≅ ΔMQR using SAS is </span><span>m∠A = 64° and AB = MQ = 31 cm</span>

A diagram of a hockey rink is shown below. The diameter of the middle circle is 30 Feet. What is the area of the middle circle?
Tatiana [17]
The formula of the area of the circle is 
Area = pi * (d/2)^2

So using the formula,
Area = 3.14 * (30/2)^2
Area = 3.14 * 15^2
Area = 706.5 ft^2

So the area of the hockey rink is 706.5 ft^2
