Let x be the unknown number

2x +7 = 39

2x+7-7 = 39-7

2x = 32

2x/2 = 32/2

x=16

You use the balance method to solve. First, you cancel the +7 by subtracting the 7 ON BOTH SIDES to balance the equation.. After that, you are left with 2x, where you will need to isolate the x by dividing by 2 ON BOTH SIDES to balance it.

Hope this helps

Which set of measurements can represent the lengths of a triangle's sides?
zepelin [54]
Triangle, not a triangle, not a triangle, triangle

Determining if three side lengths can make a triangle is easier than it looks. All you have to do is use the Triangle Inequality Theorem, which states that the sum of two side lengths of a triangle is always greater than the third side. If this is true for all three combinations of added side lengths, then you will have a triangle.[

In triangle OPQ, p = 38 cm, q = 29 cm and Angle O=39º. Find the length of o, to the nearest
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The length of o is 24 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

In Δ OPQ

∵ Side p is opposite to ∠P

∵ Side q is opposite to ∠Q

∵ Side o is opposite to ∠O

→ To find side o we must use the cosine rule

∴ o = \sqrt{p^{2}+q^{2}-2(p)(q).cos(O)  }

∵ p = 38 cm

∵ q = 29 cm

∵ m∠O = 39°

→ Substitute them in the rule to find o

∴ o = \sqrt{(38)^{2}+(29)^{2}-2(38)(29).cos(39)}

∴ o = 23.92008154

→ Round it to the nearest centimeter (whole number)

∴ o = 24 centimeters

∴ The length of o is 24 centimeters
