Let's take another look at the question:
If 4 is subtracted from twice a number the result is 10 less than the number.
let x = the number
"if 4 is subtracted from" is the same as
-4
"from twice a number" is the same as
2x
so put them together,
2x-4
"the result is"
=
2x-4=
10 less than
-10
the number
x
2x-4=x-10
now we find x
subtract x from both sides to get
x-4=-10
add 4 to both sides to get
x=-6
to check, plug in the value of x into the original equation

First we can make an equation out of this statement. 2x-4=x-10 and now we will solve it 2x-4=x-10 2x-x=-10+4 X=-10+4=-6

Shtirlitz [24]
To be a right angled triangle, it must follow the rule a² + b² = c² (where c is the longest side)

4.5² + 6² = 20.25 + 36 = 56.25
7² = 49
This is NOT a right angled triangle.

To make this into a right angled triangle, the longest side c should be longer. 
c = √56.25 = 7.5 inches

Please help me with the question below
den301095 [7]
Answer:
15 feet

Explanation:
Triangle ABC is similar to triangle EDC, meaning they would’ve been congruent if it weren’t for their size.
This also means they don’t have the same side lengths but have the same proportions in comparison to each other.

The sides on the two triangles also correspond with each other. For example, line DC corresponds with line BC.
Knowing that, we can conclude that line ED also corresponds with line AB. Line ED is 12 ft and line AB is 4 ft. To get from 4 to 12, you multiply 3 (4*3=12).

Line EC also corresponds to line AC. So to calculate for line EC, we multiply the length of line AC by 3. 5*3=15, so therefore line EC is equal to 15.

(5.4×10^2)(2.5×10^8)
mariarad [96]

(5.4×10^2)(2.5×10^8)

= (5.4 x 2.5) (10^2 × 10^8)

= 13.5 x 10^10

= 1.35 x 10^11

PLS ANSWER CORRECTLY !!! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

Both triangles share two congruent sides, this must mean they also share a common angle

To prove they are congruent we can use the SAS theorem.* Not SSS I corrected my answer.
