1) To solve for x, is to leave the x on the left side the other variables on the right along with the constants, like this

$\begin{gathered} 5\text{ +kx =17} \\ kx\text{ =17-5} \\ x=\frac{17-5}{k} \end{gathered}$

Note that, we subtracted 5 and then divided by x.

Equilateral triangle ABC has an area of \sqrt{3}√ 3 . If the shaded region has an area of \piπK − \sqrt{3}√ 3 , what

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The value of k = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- An equilateral triangle ABC is inscribed in a circle N

- The area of the triangle is √3

- The shaded area is the difference between the area of the circle

and the area of the equilateral triangle ABC

- The shaded are = k π - √3

- We need to find the value of k

* At first lets find the length of the side of the Δ ABC

∵ Δ ABC is an equilateral triangle

∴ Its area = √3/4 s² , where s is the length of its sides

∵ The area of the triangle = √3

∴ √3/4 s² = √3

- divide both sides by √3

∴ 1/4 s² = 1

- Multiply both sides by 4

∴ s² = 4 ⇒ take √ for both sides

∴ s = 2

∴ The length of the side of the equilateral triangle is 2

* Now lets find the radius of the circle

- In the triangle whose vertices are A , B and N the center of the circle

∵ AN and BN are radii

∴ AN = BN = r , where r is the radius of the circle

∵ The sides of the equilateral angles divides the circle into 3 equal

arcs in measure where each arc has measure 360°/3 = 120°

∵ The measure of the central angle in a circle equal the measure

of the its subtended arc arc

∵ ∠ANB is an central angle subtended by arc AB

∵ The measure of arc AB is 120°

∴ m∠ANB = 120°

- By using the cosine rule in Δ ANB

∵ AB = 2 , AN = BN = r , m∠ANB = 120°

∴ $(2)^{2}=r^{2}+r^{2}-2(r)(r)cos(120)$

∴ $4=r^{2}+r^{2}-2(r)(r)(-0.5)$

∴ $4=r^{2}+r^{2}-(-r^{2})$

∴ $4=r^{2}+r^{2}+r^{2}$

∴ $4=3r^{2}$

- Divide both sides by 3

∴ $r^{2}=\frac{4}{3}$

- Take square root for both sides

∴ r = 2/√3

* Lets find the value of k

∵ Area circle = πr²

∵ r = 2/√3

∴ Area circle = π(2/√3)² = (4/3)π

∵ Area shaded = area circle - area triangle

∵ Area triangle = √3

∴ Area shaded = (4/3) π - √3

∵ Area of the shaded part is π k - √3

- Equate the two expressions

∴ π k - √3 = (4/3) π - √3

∴ k = 4/3

* The value of k = 4/3

When ms Thelma turned one her oven ,the temperateure inside was 70 degress. The temputure began to rised at a rate of 40 per min

Ronch [10]

Answer:

7 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract 70 from 350.

350-70=280

Now, divide 280 by 40

280/40=7

It took Ms. Thelmas oven to heat up from 70 degrees to 350 degrees in 7 minutes.

Solve equation, check for extraneous solutions

fiasKO [112]

Start with

$1=\dfrac{1}{n^2}+\dfrac{n^2-4n-5}{3n^2}$

We observe that both fractions are not defined if $n=0$ . So, we will assume $n \neq 0$ .

We multiply both numerator and denominator of the first fraction by 3 and we sum the two fractions:

$1=\dfrac{3}{3n^2}+\dfrac{n^2-4n-5}{3n^2} = \dfrac{n^2-4n-2}{3n^2}$

We multiply both sides by $3n^2$ :

$n^2-4n-2=3n^2$

We move everything to one side and solve the quadratic equation:

$2n^2+4n+2=0 \iff 2(n^2+2n+1)=0 \iff 2(n+1)^2=0 \iff n+1=0 \iff n=-1$

We check the solution:

$1=\dfrac{1}{1}+\dfrac{1+4-5}{3} \iff 1 = 1+0$

which is true

iVinArrow [24]

The characteristics of these geometric figures create:
1. Parallel lines are lines in the same plane that will never intersect and also if they are in different planes, those lines will never intersect too.
2. While perpendicular lines are two lines that will meet at a 90-degree angle or right angle.
