The value of the variable x is 3/4

<h3>What are congruent segments</h3>

Congruent segment are segments with equal or congruent lengths.

From the information given, we have that line AB is approximately equal to line BC. This is represented as;

AB = BC

Where;

  • AB = 4x + 7
  • BC = 20x - 7

Now, let's equate the expressions

4x + 7 = 20x - 5

collect like terms

4x - 20x = - 5 - 7

- 16x = - 12

Make 'x' the subject of formula

x = -12/-16

x = 3/4

Thus, the value of the variable x is 3/4

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Congruent segments have the same length, so:

AB= BC \\ \\ 4x+7=20x-5 \\ \\ 12=16x \\ \\ x=3/4

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

If you were to make a 360 degree circle and minus the 50 thats already there you get 310 the right angle on angle 5 is 90 degrees because its a right angle so then the 310-90=220 the obtuse angle on angle 2 is 180 so 220-180=40 lastly you share those forty between angles 3 and 4 and the solution is your answer.

Which of the following complete the proof above?
svp [43]

Answer:

(A)

Step-by-step explanation:

To be honest, since all of them are different, as long as you get the first one right, you will get the others right. A is your answer, for the following reasons:

Reflexive Property: The Reflexive property states that the mirrored version of itself will always be congruent with itself. Generally, to make it easier, they will write it opposite (as they did in the given proof):

<em>line</em> AC ≅ <em>line</em> CA

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The solution is  (2,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the number of hours to change a fuel injection unit

y-----> the number of hours to change a transmission

we know that

5x+10y=70 -----> equation A

8x+8y=64 -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

The solution is the point (2,6)

Write a function number_of_pennies() that returns the total number of pennies given a number of dollars and (optionally) a numbe
seraphim [82]
Ok, first of all, it is important to understand that this function would depend on 2 variables; the number of dollars (x) and the number of pennies (y). Every dollar is equivalent to 100 pennies. So, if we are given x dollars, we have 100*x pennies. If we also have y pennies, we still get y pennies. We need to add these two to get the total amount of pennies. Thus, the correct function is:
f(x,y)=100*x+y

Answer:

  all are "yes"

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial is defined for all values of x. None are excluded. Every value listed is in the <em>domain</em> of f(x) = (x +1)².
