What is the value of x?

Orlov [11]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 24.5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two similar triangles. In similar triangles the sides are in proportion.

Let's name big triangle as triangle 1 and small triangle as triangle 2.

The sides of the big triangle:

27 as base and the longest side (x + 7)

The sides of the small triangle:

base = 27 - 6 = 21

longest side = x

We need to find the value of x using proportion.

27/21 = (x + 7)/ x

By cross multiplying, we get

27(x) = 21(x + 7)

27x = 21x + 147

27x - 21x = 147

6x = 147

Dividing both sides by 6, we get

x = 147/6

x = 24.5

The value of x = 24.5

Hope you will understand the concept.

Thank you.

17.003 - 0.374 please show work

asambeis [7]

Answer:

16.629

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by setting up the numbers like the first picture. The borrow. To borrow we have to go the whole way over to the 7 since you can't borrow from 0. So the 7 becomes a 6 and the 0 becomes 10. Then the 10 becomes a 9 and the 0 becomes a 10. Then the 10 becomes a 9 and the 3 becomes a 13. Then subtract. Just bring the decimal point down.

For each of the following functions, determine if they are injective. Also determine if theyare surjective. Also determine if th

timurjin [86]

Answer:

Check below

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Definition for intervals

$(a,b)=\left \{ x\in\Re : a$

2. Functions

1) $\Re \rightarrow \Re \\ f(x)=x$

Let's perform graph tests.

That's an one to one, injective function. Look how any horizontal line touches that only once. Also, It's a surjective and a bijective one.

2) $\Re\geq0\rightarrow\Re , f(x)=x+1\\$

Injective, surjective and bijective.

Injective: a horizontal line crosses the graph in one point.

3) $f:\Re\geq 0\rightarrow\Re, f(x) = cos(x)$

The cosine function is not injective, bijective nor surjective.

4) $f:\Re\rightarrow\Re \:f(x)=ex$

Since e, is euler number it's a constant. It's also injective, surjective and bijective.

5) Quite unclear format

$6) \:f:\Re\rightarrow(0,\infty), f(x) =ex$

Despite the Restriction for the CoDomain, the function remains injective, surjective and therefore bijective.

$7) f:\Re\geq 0 \rightarrow \Re\geq0, f(x) =x^{4}$

Not injective nor surjective therefore not bijective too.

$8).f:\{-1,2,-3\}}\rightarrow \{1,4,9\}, f(x) =x^{2}$

$f(-1)=1, f(2)=4, f(-3)=9$

Injective (one to one), Surjective, and Bijective.

$10) f:\Re\geq 0\rightarrow [-1,1], f(x)= cos(x)\\-1=cos(x) \therefore x=\pi,3\pi,5\pi,etc.$

Surjective.

$11.f:R\geq 0[-1,1], f(x) = 0\\$

Surjective

12.f: US Citizens→Z, f(x) = the SSN of x.

General function

13.f: US Zip Codes→US States, f(x) = The state that x belongs to.

Surjective

Solve 4 square root of 3 = 8cos

sukhopar [10]

Therefore $\theta = 30^\circ$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

$4\sqrt{3 } =8 cos \theta$

$\Leftrightarrow cos \theta =\frac{4\sqrt{3} }{8}$

$\Leftrightarrow cos \theta =\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$

$\Leftrightarrow cos \theta =cos 30^\circ$

$\Leftrightarrow \theta = 30^\circ$

Therefore $\theta = 30^\circ$
