In the given question it is important to take note of every minute details that are given in the question. using these details the answer to the given question can be easily reached.
Let us assume the common ratio to be x.
Then
x + 9x = 81
10x = 81
x = 81/10
  = 8.1
A s we already know that the ratio of chaperones to students is 1:9
Then
The number of chaperones = 1 * 8.1
                                             = 8.1
So 8.1 chaperones were there in total. I hope you have got the answer you were looking for.

1. Algebra Find the values for x and y in ABCD.
Marta_Voda [28]

ANSWER

x=12, y=10

EXPLANATION

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

This implies that;

AE=EC

4x = 5y - 2

4x - 5y =  - 2...(1)

Also, DE=EB;

2x = y + 14

y =2x - 14...(2)

Put equation (2) in (1).

4x - 5(2x - 14) =  - 2

Expand;

4x - 10x + 70 =  - 2

- 6x =  - 72

x = 12

Put x=2, into equation (2).

y = 2(12) - 14

y = 10

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer: the answer is approximately 41.65428, not rounded (maybe re do all the steps just in case)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. label the space between X and W the unknown.

2. You will be using SOH-CAH-TOA

3. Label the X as the opposite because it is the opposite side of where your degree is located.

4. Label five as adjacent because it’s next to the degree.

5. You will use TOA since you have adjacent and opposite values.

6. Write the equation tan58=x/5, the unknown goes on the top because O is first, the five goes on the bottom because A is last on TOA.

7. After you have the equation time 5 on both sides leaving you out with (5)tan58=x

8. On your calculator time (5)tan58 which will give you x.

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find an approximate value of x
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypotenuse² =base² + altitude²

(3x + 4)² = (2x + 1)² + (3x)²

{Use (a+b)² = a² + 2ab + b²}

(3x)² + 2*3x+4 + 4² = (2x)² + 2*2x*1 + 1² + 9x²

9x² + 24x + 16 = 4x² + 4x + 1 + 9x²

9x² + 24x + 16 = 13x² + 4x + 1

0 = 13x² + 4x  + 1 - 9x²  - 24x - 16

13x² - 9x² + 4x - 24x +1 - 16 = 0

4x² - 20x - 15 = 0

a = 4 ; b =-20  ; c = -15

D = b² - 4ac  = (-20)² - 4*4*(-15) = 400 + 240 = 640

√D = √640 = 25.30

x=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt{D}}{2a} \ ; \ x=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt{D}}{2a}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{20+25.30}{2*4} \ ; \ x=\dfrac{20-25.30}{2*4}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{45.30}{8} \ ; \  x =\dfrac{-5.30}{8}\\\\

x = 5 .66   ; x = -0.66

Ignore x = -0.66 as length of a side cannot be negative

Answer : x = 5.66
