Given:
The figure of a rhombus QRST.
To find:
A. The value of x.
B. The measure of angle RQP.
Solution:
A. We need to find the value of x.
We know that the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors. It means the angles on the intersection of diagonals are right angles.
[Right angle]
Divide both sides by 5.
Therefore, the value of x is 15.
B. We need to find the measure of angle RQP.
From the given figure, it is clear that

Putting
, we get



Therefore, the measure of angle RQP is 33 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
5x + 3 - 2x = 12 + 7x - 2
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Combine like terms: 3x + 3 = 7x + 10
- [SPE] Subtract 3x on both sides: 3 = 4x + 10
- [SPE] Subtract 10 on both sides: -7 = 4x
- [DPE] Divide 4 on both sides: -7/4 = x
- Rewrite: x = -7/4
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 5(-7/4) + 3 - 2(-7/4) = 12 + 7(-7/4) - 2
- Multiply: -35/4 + 3 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Add: -23/4 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Add: -9/4 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Subtract: -9/4 = -1/4 - 2
- Subtract: -9/4 = -9/4
Here we see that -9/4 does indeed equal -9/4.
∴ x = -7/4 is the solution to the equation.
The related number sentence that shows the commutative property addition for the equation 3+ 9 + 12 is 9 + 3 = 12
Please take note, the commutative property of addition is
a + b = c
b + a = c
a + b = b + a
Commutative originates from the word move around or commute, therefore, commutative property refers to the act of moving stuff around. In addition, the rule is a + b = b + a; wherein from the example above, means 9 + 3 = 3 + 9. They want to say that the computation uses the Commutative Property, if at any time, a computation depends on moving stuff around
Answer:
The amount of gold used in a 200 g 14 gold bracelet is 116 g.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a 14 karat jewell is stated to have aproximally 58 % of it's weigh in gold we need to take the total weigh of the jewel in question and find that percentage of it's weigh. In order to find that percentage we'll first convert that number into a decimal, we do that by dividing it by 100, so we have 58% = 58/100 = 0.58 we can multiply this value by the weigh of the jewel to find the amount of gold used. So we have:
gold used = total weigh*0.58 = 200*0.58 = 116 g
