Answer:

The value of x is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are congruent, then the corresponding angles and the corresponding sides are equal

In this problem

Triangles ABC and DEF are congruent

ABC≅DEF

therefore

AB=DE ----> equation A

AC=DF ----> equation B

BC=EF ----> equation C

Substitute the given values in the equation B

$8=2x-6$

Solve for x

$2x=8+6$

$2x=14$

$x=7$

therefore

The value of x is 7

The draw in the attached figure

What is the solution for the equation StartFraction 5 Over 3 b cubed minus 2 b squared minus 5 EndFraction = StartFraction 2 Ove

Answer:

The solutions are:

$b=0,\:b=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

$\frac{5}{3b^3-2b^2-5}=\frac{2}{b^3-2}$

Solving the expression

$\frac{5}{3b^3-2b^2-5}=\frac{2}{b^3-2}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:fraction\:cross\:multiply:\:if\:}\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}\mathrm{\:then\:}a\cdot \:d=b\cdot \:c$

$5\left(b^3-2\right)=\left(3b^3-2b^2-5\right)\cdot \:2$

$5b^3-10=6b^3-4b^2-10$

$\mathrm{Switch\:sides}$

$6b^3-4b^2-10=5b^3-10$

$6b^3-4b^2-10+10=5b^3-10+10$

$6b^3-4b^2=5b^3$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}5b^3\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$6b^3-4b^2-5b^3=5b^3-5b^3$

$b^3-4b^2=0$

$Using\:the\:Zero\:Factor\:Principle:$ $if\:\mathrm ab=0\:\mathrm{then}\:a=0\:\mathrm{or}\:b=0\:\left(\mathrm{or\:both}\:a=0\:\mathrm{and}\:b=0\right)$

So,

$b=0,b-4=0$

$b=0,b=4$

Therefore, the solutions are:

$b=0,\:b=4$

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation: [ 3.6 ] represents the greatest integer function [ x ]

If x is an integer use that integer

If x is not an integer use the next smaller integer

[ 3.6 ] is not an integer, hence

[ 3.6 ] = 3
