Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x + 1) = 3(5 - x) + 2

Distribute,

2(x + 1) = 3(5 - x) + 2

2x + 2 = 3(5 - x) + 2

Rearrange terms,

2x + 2 = 3(5 - x) + 2

2x + 2 = 3(-x + 5) + 2

Distribute,

2x + 2 = 3(-x + 5) + 2

2x + 2 = -3x + 15 + 2

Add the numbers,

2x + 2 = -3x + 15 + 2

2x + 2 = -3x + 17

Subtract 2 from both sides,

2x + 2 = -3x + 17

2x + 2 - 2 = -3x + 17 - 2

2x = -3x + 17 - 2

2x = -3x + 15

Add 3x to both sides,

2x = -3x + 15

2x + 3x = -3x + 3x + 15

5x = -3x + 3x + 15

5x = 15

Divide both sides by the same factor (15),

5x = 15

5x/5 = 15/5

x = 15/5

x = 3

Hence, the answer is 3.

If RH = 10 units, HT = 16 units, and GH = 8 units, what is the length of line segment HJ?

Dominik [7]

Answer:

$HJ=20\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

RT and GJ are chords that intersect at point H. If RH = 10 units, HT = 16 units, and GH = 8 units, what is the length of line segment HJ? 18 units 20 units 26 units 28 units

we know that

The intersecting chords theorem is a statement that describes a relation of the four line segments created by two intersecting chords within a circle. It states that the products of the lengths of the line segments on each chord are equal

In this problem

$(RH)(HT)=(GH)(HJ)$

substitute the given values

$(10)(16)=(8)(HJ)$

solve for HJ

$HJ=160/8\\HJ=20\ units$

What is my weighted grade please explain how it's done.

salantis [7]

That's not enough information to calculate your grade from.

-- You've told us the scores you have in things that go together
to make up (35 + 5 + 25) = 65% of your grade.

-- We don't know your scores in the things that make up the other
35% of your grade.

If x equals a real number, x^0 equals what?

Stels [109]

Hey there!

$x^0$

Anything to the power of 0 is 1. So that means x can be equal to any number. Let's say 1^0, it will still equal 1. 2^0 is also equal to 1. X is therefore not a number since it can be anything.

$x^0=1$

Hope this helps!
