Answer:
46
Step-by-step explanation:
With those problems if you are not given a picture is good we draw one.
Because an angle bisector forms 2 congruent angles and because is given that < XVY ≅ < YVW then
m < XVY = m < YVW
2x+7 = x+15 , subtract x and 7 from both sides to isolate the like terms
2x-x = 15-7, combine like terms
x = 8
From the picture and the given we see that
m < XVW = m < XVY + m < YVW
m < XVW = 2x+7 + x+15 , combine like terms
m < XVW = 3x + 22, substitute x for 8
m < XVW = 3*8 + 22
m < XVW = 46
Check our work:
m < XVY = 2x+7 = 2*8 +7 = 16 +7 = 23
m < YVW = x+15 = 8 +15 = 23
m < XVW = m < XVY + m < YVW = 23+23 =46
Answer: x = {-1, -3, 2}
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
x³ + 2x² - 5x - 6 = 0
Use the rational root theorem to find the possible roots: ±1, ±2, ±3, ±6
Use Long division, Synthetic division, or plug them into the equation to see which root(s) work <em>(result in a remainder of zero)</em>.
I will use Synthetic division. Let's try x = 1
1 | 1 2 -5 -6
|<u> ↓ 1 3 -2 </u>
1 3 -2 -8 ← remainder ≠ 0 so x = 1 is NOT a root
Let's try x = -1
- 1 | 1 2 -5 -6
|<u> ↓ -1 -1 6 </u>
1 1 -6 0 ← remainder = 0 so x = -1 is a root!
The coefficients of the reduced polynomial are: 1, 1, -6 --> x² + x - 6
Factor: x² + x - 6
(x + 3)(x - 2)
Set those factors equal to zero to solve for x:
x + 3 = 0 --> x = -3
x - 2 = 0 --> x = 2
Using Synthetic Division and Factoring the reduced polynomial, we found
x = -1, -3, and 2
No. If you still want the 46 7/8 square foot table and less than 6ft wide than the table length must be greater than 7 1/2 feet long. For the math to work out. Because, the 7 1/2 foot long table would need a 6 1/4 wide table to fit the 46 7/8 square foot.
You've got five different problems in this photo ... four on top and the word problem on the bottom ... and they're all exactly the same thing: Taking two points and finding the slope of the line that goes through them.
In every case, the procedure is the same.
If the two points are (x₁ , y₁) and (x₂ , y₂) , then
the slope of the line that goes through them is
Slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁) .
This is important, and you should memorize it.
#1). (8, 10) and (-7, 14)
Slope = (14 - 10) / (-7 - 8) = 4 / -15
#2). (-3, 1) and (-17, 2)
Slope = (2 - 1) / (-17 - -3) = (2 - 1) / (-17 + 3) = 1 / -14
#3). (-20, -4) and (-12, -10)
Slope = [ -10 - (-4) ] / [ -12 - (-20) ]
=========================================
The word problem:
This question only gives you one point on the graph,
and then it wants to know what's the slope ?
What are you going to do for another point ?
A "proportional relationship" always passes through the origin,
so another point on the line is (0, 0) .
Now you have two points on THAT line too, and you can easily
find its slope.
