a rectangle has a side length 2x+9 and side width x. If the perimeter is 36 cm, what is the value of x?

1 answer:

6 0

2(2x + 9) + 2(x) = 36

4x + 18 + 2x = 36

Combine like terms.

6x + 18 = 36

Subtract 18 from both sides.

6x = 18

Divide 6 on both sides.

x = 3

Hope this helps!

Find the value of b.

Nesterboy [21]

Answer: $230^{\circ$

Step-by-step explanation:

For convenience, I labeled some points as shown in the attached picture.

Also, I assume $\overline{AB}$ and $\overline{BC}$ are tangents to the circle.

$\overline{BO} \cong \overline{BO}$ (reflexive property)
$\overline{AB} \cong \overline{BC}$ (tangents drawn from a common external point are congruent)
$\angle BAO \cong \angle BCO$ (right angles are congruent)

Therefore, we know $\triangle ABO \cong \triangle CBO$ by HL.

Thus, by CPCTC,

$\angle AOB \cong \angle BOC \implies m\angle BOC=65^{\circ}\\\\\implies m\angle AOC=130^{\circ}$

This means the measure of minor arc AC is $130^{\circ}$ , and thus $b=360^{\circ}-130^{\circ}=\boxed{230^{\circ}}$

What is the binomial expansion of (x 2y)7? 2x7 14x6y 42x5y2 70x4y3 70x3y4 42x2y5 14xy6 2y7 x7 14x6y 42x5y2 70x4y3 70x3y4 42x2y5

You can take x = a, 2y = b and then can apply the binomial theorem.

The expansion of given expression is given by:

Option D: $x^7 + 14x^6y + 84x^5y^2 + 280x^4y^3 + 560x^3y^4 + 672x^2y^5 + 448xy^6 + 128y^7$ is

<h3>What is binomial theorem?</h3>

It provides algebraic expansion of exponentiated(integer) binomial.

According to binomial theorem,

$(a+b)^n = \sum_{i=0}^n ^nC_i a^ib^{n-i}$

<h3>How to use binomial theorem for given expression?</h3>

Taking a = x, and b =2y, we have n = 7, thus:

$(x+2y)^7 = \: ^7C_0x^0(2y)^7 + \: ^7C_1x^1(2y)^6 + \: ^7C_2x^2(2y)^5 + \: ^7C_3x^3(2y)^4 + \:^7C_4x^4(2y)^3 + \:^7C_5x^5(2y)^2 + \:^7C_6x^6y^1 + \: ^7C_0x^7y^0\\\\
(x+2y)^7 = 128y^7 + 448xy^6 + 672x^2y^5 + 560x^3y^4 + 280x^4y^3 + 84x^5y^2 + 14x^6y + x^7\\\\
(x+2y)^7 = x^7 + 14x^6y + 84x^5y^2 + 280x^4y^3 + 560x^3y^4 + 672x^2y^5 + 448xy^6 + 128y^7$

Thus, Option D: $x^7 + 14x^6y + 84x^5y^2 + 280x^4y^3 + 560x^3y^4 + 672x^2y^5 + 448xy^6 + 128y^7$ is correct.

Solve for x.<br> 2x2 + x = 10

Stells [14]

Answer:

x = 2, x = -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² + x - 10 = 0

(2x + 5)(x - 2) = 0

2x + 5 = 0

2x = -5

x = -5/2

x - 2 = 0

x = 2
