Answer the following equation: 1/2(x + 20) = 17/4x + 4 (6 - x)

1 answer:

8 0

So use distributive property
which is
a(b+c)=ab+ac so
1/2(x+20)=1/2x+10

and the other
4(6-x)=24-4x

so now we have
1/2x+10=17/4x+24-4x
convert -4x to -16/4x and add to the 17/4x
1/2x+10=1/4x+24
subtract 24 from boths ides
1/2x-14=1/4x
multily both sides by 4
2x-56=x
subtract x from both sides
x-56=0
add 56 to both sides
x=56

Please help. I have no idea how to do this. Find the measure of

vagabundo [1.1K]

m∠A = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given AB =AC and m∠B = 70

Since AB =AC , Triangle ABC is an isosceles Triangle and the corresponding angles B and C are equal.

So m∠B = m∠C = 70

The sum of the 3 Angles of a triangle is 180°.

=> m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180

=> 140 + m∠C = 180

=> m∠C = 40

Hence the answer is m∠C = 40

Write an equation that is perpendicular to and 3x+y=3 whose y-intercept 5. Anyone please help me, no link just explain how to do

Liula [17]

Answer:

$y = \frac{1}{3}x + 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, two lines are perpendicular if and only if their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other: $m = - \frac{1}{m_{2} }$ , or equivalently, $m_{1} * m_{2} = -1$ .

Given our linear equation 3x + y = 3 (or y = -3x + 3):

We can find the equation of the line (with a y-intercept of 5) that is perpendicular to y = -3x + 3 by determining the negative reciprocal of its slope, -3, which is $\frac{1}{3}$ .
