Given that E is a point between Point D and F, the numerical value of segment DE is 46.

<h3>What is the numerical value of DE?</h3>

Given the data in the question;

  • E is a point between point D and F.
  • Segment DF = 78
  • Segment DE = 5x - 9
  • Segment EF = 2x + 10
  • Numerical value of DE = ?

Since E is a point between point D and F.

Segment DF = Segment DE + Segment EF

78 = 5x - 9 + 2x + 10

78 = 7x + 1

7x = 78 - 1

7x = 77

x = 77/7

x = 11

Hence,

Segment DE = 5x - 9

Segment DE = 5(11) - 9

Segment DE = 55 - 9

Segment DE = 46

Given that E is a point between Point D and F, the numerical value of segment DE is 46.

Express 3 log x^2 + 7 log x as a single log
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

log x^13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the laws of logarithms

a log b = log b^a and  log a + log b = log ab:

3 log x^2 + 7 log x

= log (x^2)^3 + log x^7

= log x^6 + log x^7

= log (x^6*x^7)

= log x^13.

3(5j+2)=2(3j-6) how do i do this
ohaa [14]

3(5j+2)=2(3j-6) do distributed to remove parenthesis  15j+6=6j-3 . Then move all j to left side and the second term to right side 15j-6j=-3-6. Now solve both sides  9j= -9. Now divide both sides by 9 to get j alone to j =  -1

in a right triangle, the 58cm hypotenuse makes a 51 angle with one of the legs. rounded to two decimals places, how long is that
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

36.50

To two decimal places

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothenuse side in a right angle triangle has 58cm. While the angle touching one of its leg is 51°. How long is that leg.

From the right angled triangle, the size of the leg touching the hypothenuse is the adjacent side of the triangle, hence in trigonometry, the cosine rule is used, because it involves the adjacent and the hypotenuse.

Cos 51°=x/58

Let the size of the leg be x

Making x the subject

x=58(Cos51°)

x=36.500058

Correct to two decimal place

x=36.50
