Solve the equation: 2x + B= C X=

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Add (-2X) to both sides:
2X + B + (-2X) = C + (-2X)
If we (rearrange) it into B + 2X + (-2X) = C + (-2X)
B + 2X - 2X = C + (-2X)
Since +2X - 2X = 0
B + 0 = C + (-2X)
B = C + (-2X)
B = C - 2X

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

Lynna [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

c = $6.25 + 0.15w

$6.25 represents the fixed cost. it is the cost that does not vary with the number of words

15 cents is the variable cost. it is the cost that varies with the number of words.

to write the equation convert 15 cents to dollars by dividing by 100.

Find the value of 2. 35° xº (x + 95)°

nevsk [136]

Answer:

x = 25°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle = 180°

180° = 35° + x° + x + 95°

2x° = 50°

x = 25°
