-12 + 6x = 6 + 5(x - 2) Please help and EXPLAIN

Mathematics
1 answer:
icang [17]1 year ago

Answer: x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute 5(x) and 5(-2)

-12 + 6x = 6 + 5x + (-10) OR 5x - 10

Flip if you'd like

6x - 12 = 6 + 5x - 10

Combine like terms

6x−12=(5x)+(6+−10)

6x - 12 = 5x - 4

Subtract 5x from both 6 and 5

6x - 5x = 5x - 5x

5x cancels out, so you're left with x, 12, and -4

x - 12 = -4

Add 12 to 12 and -4

12 + 12 = -4 + 12

12 cancels out

-4 + 12 = 8

x = 8

What is the length of the hypotenuse, c? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the Pythagorean theorem:

b^2+3^2=5^2
b^2+9=25

b=sqrt (25-9)

b=sqrt(16)

b=4

=> 4^2+7^2=c^2
16+49=c^2
65=c^2
=>c=sqrt(65)

c = (approximately) 8

Can someone please explain?
geniusboy [140]

This is an isosceles triangle. The angles at the base are congruent (they have the same measures).

Look at the picture.

We know: The sum of the measures of angles in a triangle is equal 180°.

Therefore we have the equation:

2x-10+2x-10+3x+25=180       <em>combine like terms</em>

(2x+2x+3x)+(-10-10+25)=180

7x+5=180           <em>subtract 5 from both sides</em>

7x=175              <em>divide both sides by 7</em>

x=25

m\angle A=2x-10\to m\angle A=2(25)-10=50-10=40\\\\m\angle C=m\angle A=40\\\\m\angle B=3x+25\to m\angle B=3(25)+25=75+25=100^o

<h3>Answer: D. m∠C = 40</h3>
