Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Expand

    8x - 5x + 5 = 20

2. Simplify

    3x + 5 = 20

3. Subtract 5 from both sides

    3x = 20 - 5

4. Simplify

    3x = 15

5. Divide both sides by 3

    x = 15/3

6. Simplify

    x = 5

mestny [16]

Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangle angles add up to 180 so:

x + 5x + 72 = 180

6x + 72 = 180

6x = 180 - 72

6x = 108

x = 18

The black figure is an ellipse, and the black line segment is is major axis. What is the length of the blue line segment?
NeTakaya

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula we need to solve this is:

d_1+d_2=2a

Where

d_1  is the distance from one focus to the vertex

d_2  is the second distance from another focus to same vertex

<u>Note:</u> Here, vertex point is the point on top. The common point from which the RED and BLUE line meets the 2 foci

a  is half the length of the major axis (which is 9 here since total major axis is given as 18)

<em>Now we can plug into the equation and solve:</em>

<em>d_1+d_2=2a\\8.5+d_2=2(9)\\8.5+d_2=18\\d_2=18-8.5\\d_2=9.5</em>

<em />

<em>D is the correct answer.</em>
