First, we need to reduce the equation. To do this, we need to get rid of the parentheses. I'll start with that.

Remember that subtracting 10X-3 is the same as adding a negative number. 10X+(-3) Thus, we change the equation.

10X+(-3)(7-2X)+18

Now we multiply -3 and 7-2X. We must distribute because of the parentheses around 7-2X.

10X+[(-3)(7)+(-3)(-2X)]+18

10X+(-21)+(6X)+18

Now, we add like terms.

10X+6X+(-21)+18

16X+(-3)

16X-3

Now, if you only needed to reduce the equation, then you can stop here.

However, if the equation is equal to zero, and you need to solve for X, then you need to add 3 to both sides so that X is by itself.

16X-3+3=0+3

16X=3

Now decide both signs by 16 to solve for X.

16X/16=3/16

X=3/16

X=0.1875

Rose watches a circular ornament that has 6 equally spaced stones. identify x
Feliz [49]

Answer:

x = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the stones are equally spaced. As the circle is divided into 6 parts by 6 split points and there are 360∘ in the circle, each part equals 360∘/6 = 60∘. So,

mAB◠ = 60∘

mBC◠ = 3 (60∘)  = 180∘

If a tangent and a secant intersect in the exterior of a circle, then the measure of the angle formed is half the difference of the measures of its intercepted arcs.

x = 1/2 (mBC◠ − mAB◠)

Substitute the known values into the formula.

x = 1/2 (180∘ − 60∘)

= 1/2 (120∘)

= 60∘

Therefore, x = 60∘.

Kaitlyn creates an architectural blueprint of a rectangular dining room.The area of the actual dining room is 900 times as large
8090 [49]
We need to make a scale between blueprint and actual size. The trick in this question is to understand that the scale for the areas and the scale for the lengths are different.
Scale for area is given in the question as
1 unit on blueprint = 900 units in actual.
As the dining room is given to be rectangular we can find the scale for lengths by taking square root of scale for area.

√1 unit on blueprint = √900 units in actual
Therefore, scale for length= 1:30

Thus, by using the scale we can calculate actual length corresponding to 4 inches on blueprint by multiplying 4 with scale
4 inches×1/30=120inches

Answer = 120 inches

florida received 15 inches of rainfall in 3 months of the year. If the state receive 4.25 each month until the end of the year,
kherson [118]
Since there are 12 months in there year and there have already been 3 months there are 9 left

we need to multiply 4.25 by 9 and then add the first 15 inchess

4.25 times 9 = 38.25+15 = 53.25

Florida will recieve 53.25 inches of rain

I hope I've helped!
