Answer:
Let x be the number
double x = 2 x
square the result (2x)^2
(2x)^2 - x subtract the original number
4 x^2 - x = 33
4 x^2 - x - 33 = 0
Solve the quadratic
(1 +- (1 + 4 * 132)^1/2) / 8
= (1 + 528^1/2) / 8 = (1 + 23) / 8 = 3 using the positive exponent
Check:
(2 * 3)^2 - 3 = 36 - 3 = 33
The answer is c because he begins at 3 points. He then loses 9. So subtract 9 from 3 and you end up with -6
Answer:
x=30, and angle A equals 132°.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the angles are alternate-interior, both angles A and B equal the same amount. To figure out the value of <em>x</em>, you'd need to set up your equation like this:
5x-18°=3x+42°
You would need to solve for <em>x</em>, which should equal to 30.
Once you get your <em>x</em>, you need to plug it in into the equation of angle A, which is 5x-18°:
5(30)-18°
150-18°
Angle A = 132°.
