Division can be used. For example
50/16=3.125gallons
or you could use multiplication
50*1/16=3.125gallons
Answer:
Hello!
After reviewing the problem you have provided I have come up with the correct solution:
x= 9
Step-by-step explanation:
To come up with this solution you have to first realize that the smaller triangle is a proportionally scaled down version of the entire larger triangle! (I will show what I mean in a linked picture)
So after we have realized that the smaller triangle is a scaled down version of the larger one, we can then create a formula or ratio to calculate the value of the missing side of the larger triangle (being x+6=??).
To create the formula/ratio I divided 10inches by 4inches. Thus the larger triangle is 2.5 times larger than the smaller one.
I then use this ratio to figure out the missing length of the larger triangle by doing:
6inches x 2.5 = 15inches.
I then inputed the 15inches into the formula of the missing side:
x+6=15
Subtracted 6 from both sides to simplify, and came up with the solution!
x=9
Let me know if this helps!
180537.5 simplified is 180538
The value of square root 86 is between 9 and 9.5
FOIL is a mnemonic rule for multiplying binomial (that is, two-term) algebraic expressions.
FOIL abbreviates the sequence "First, Outside, Inside, Last"; it's a way of remembering that the product is the sum of the products of those four combinations of terms.
For instance, if we multiply the two expressions
(x + 1) (x + 2)
then the result is the sum of these four products:
x times x (the First terms of each expression)
x times 2 (the Outside pair of terms)
1 times x (the Inside pair of terms)
1 times 2 (the Last terms of each expression)
and so
(x + 1) (x + 2) = x^2 + 2x + 1x + 2 = x^2 + 3x + 2
[where the ^ is the usual way we indicate exponents here in Answers, because they're hard to represent in an online text environment].
Now, compare this to multiplying a pair of two-digit integers:
37 × 43
= (30 × 40) + (30 × 3) + (7 × 40) + (7 × 3)
= 1200 + 90 + 280 + 21
= 1591
The reason the two processes resemble each other is that multiplication is multiplication; the difference in the ways we represent the factors doesn't make it a fundamentally different operation.
