Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2x + 7x

72 = 9x

72 - 9 = x

63 = x

63 ÷ 3 = 21

piece 1 = 21

piece 2 =21+2 = 23

piece 3 =21+7 = 28

21+23+28 = 72 This proves the above is correct.

Answer ASAP!!!!!!! Segment BDSegment BD is a perpendicular bisector of segment ACsegment AC . AD=9x+3AD=9x+3 and DC=57DC=57 .
sergey [27]

AD = 9x + 3

DC = 57

ADC is a line, which is perpendicularly bisected by BD.

Thus AD = DC

9x + 3 = 57

9x = 57 – 3

9x = 54

x = 54/9

Find two rational numbers between 5/6 and 83/ 100 . Explain how you know (without using decimals)
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

998/1200 and 997/1200

Step-by-step explanation:

It’s hard to compare 5/6 and 83/100 in their current states. Let’s find a common denominator. Take 600. We know that this will work because both 6 and 100 go into it. Multiplying 5 by 100 and 83 by 6 to find the common denominator, we can compare them at 498/600 and 500/600. However, there is only one number (499/600) between them. Thus, we will multiply each number by 2/2, which is 1. Our numbers are then 996/1200 and 1000/1200. Two numbers between them are then 997/1200 and 998/1200

Helppppp pleaseeee!!! Its 5 Marks
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

As the picture shows, we have

V = (x+5)(x-2)x =30x

<=> x(x^2+3x-10) =30x

<=> x^3 + 3x^2-10x-30x = 0(*)

<=> x^3 +3x^2 -40x = 0

<=> x(x-5)(x+8) =0

Solve for (*), there are 3 solution :

5,

0(invalid),

-8(invalid)

=> 3 dimensions of rectangular box: 5, 3, 10
