The value of x from the given parameters is x = -1/7

<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Point E is between points D and F

DF = 18x - 1

DE = 3x + 5

EF = -x - 8

The statement point E is between points D and F, means that

DF = DE + EF

Substitute the known values in the above equation

So, we have:

18x - 1 = 3x + 5 + x - 8

Collect the like terms

So, we have

18x - 3x - x = 5 - 8 + 1

Evaluate the like terms

14x = -2

Divide both sides by 14

x = -1/7

Hence, the value of x from the given parameters is x = -1/7

Answer:

BGC=180-90

=90

BGC=BGE+EGC

BGC=BGE+15

90=BGE+15

BGE=90-15

BGE=75

BGE=AGF

AGF=X,

X =75

I need help with question 15

Nadusha1986 [10]

A rational number is a number that can be written in the form:

$\frac{p}{q}$

Where p and q are coprimes. We are asked for finite sets, we can rule out options 3 and 4. In the set in option 2 the first element is:

$\sqrt{3}$

This number cannot be written a ratio. We can rule out option 2.

All the elements in the set from option 1 can be written in the form p/q.Thus, the answer is the first option.

Trig: Which complex number's graph is shown?

Andrei [34K]

ANSWER

$2 \sqrt{2} ( \cos( \frac{7\pi}{4} + i \sin( \frac{7\pi}{4} ) )$

EXPLANATION

The complex number shown has coordinates (2,-2)

$z = 2 - 2i$

The modulus is

$|z| = \sqrt{ {2}^{2} + {( - 2)}^{2} }$

$|z| = \sqrt{ 8} = 2 \sqrt{2}$

The argument is

$\theta= \tan^{ - 1} ( \frac{ - 2}{2} )$

$\theta= \tan^{ - 1} ( -1) = \frac{7\pi}{4}$

The polar form is

$2 \sqrt{2} ( \cos( \frac{7\pi}{4} + i \sin( \frac{7\pi}{4} ) )$

The first option is correct.
