Answer:

x=2

bd/ba=be/bc

6/6+4=x+1/x+1+x

6/10=x+1/2x+1

12x+6=10x+10

12X-10X=10-6

2X=4

X=4÷2=2

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Basic proportionality theorem,

\frac{AB}{BD}=\frac{CB}{BE}\\

AB = AD + DB = 4+6 = 10

CB = CE + EB = x + x +1 = 2x +1

\frac{10}{6}=\frac{2x+1}{x+1}

Cross multiply

10*(x+1) = 6*(2x+ 1)

10*x + 10*x = 6*2x + 6*1

10x + 10 = 12x + 6

Subtract 10x from both sides

10x + 10 - 10x = 12x + 6 - 10x

10 = 2x + 6

Subtract 6 form both sides

10 - 6 = 2x + 6 - 6

4 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

4/2 = 2x/2

2  = x

x = 2

How many different 4 color code stripes can be made on a sports car if each code consists of the colors green, red, blue, and wh
Akimi4 [234]
From the list of colors: green, red, blue, and white, there are four colors. The concept that should be used in order to determine the number of 4-color code stripes that can be drawn in the sports car is the concept of BASIC PRINCIPLE OF COUNTING.

The equations that would best help us in answering the question is,
                         n = 4! (that is, four factorial)
For the first pick, there are four choices. When one is already used then, there are only 3 choices for the second color, and so on until the last color. 
                         n = 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 24
Thus, there are 24 types of 4-color codes.

1.4x + 1.2x - 3.8 = -9​
sashaice [31]
First, to make the equation easier to read, you want to add the x’s together. you should then get 2.6x-3.8=-9. then, you want to add the 3.8 to both sides, to make the x stand alone. you should end up with 2.6x=-5.2. to find x, you then want to divide both sides by 2.6. your final answer after dividing should be x=-2

Please help me with this question!!
quester [9]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = 6

a2 = 10

a3 = 14

The next member of the sequence is 4 more than the current sequence. Therefore d = 4

a1 = 6

d = 4

n = 13

an = a1 + (n - 1)*d

an = 6 + (n - 1)*4

a_13 = 6 + 12*4

a_13 = 6 + 48

a_13 = 54
