<span>Since the trapezoid is isosceles the lengths of the legs are equal. so 6x + 5 is equal to 8x-3. From there 2x is equal to 8 and then after dividing one can conclude x is equal to 4.</span>

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles trapezoid has two opposite sides (the bases) parallel, and the two other sides (the legs) are of equal length.


So, since the two legs are of equal length, you only need to use the information of the two legs:

Leg WX: 6x + 5

Leg: YZ: 8x - 3

Leg WX = Leg YZ => 6x + 5 = 8x - 3

6x + 5 = 8x - 3

=> 8x - 6x = 5 + 3

=> 2x = 8

=> x = 8 / 2

=> x = 4

I need help!!! and make sure its 100 percent right!! my graduation is at rate of not passing
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

I'm not 100% sure I'm right but I think x = -1

because it says "f(x)" and then it says"Find f(-1)" so that is why I think x = -1

The length of a model car is 1/20 of the length of the actual car. If the model. is 8.7 inch long, how long is the actual car? E
madam [21]
This means that if the model is 1 in lengh then th ereal car is 20 times of that or 20 in legnth

so to find the answer, just multiply model by 20
8.7 =model
real=8.7 times 20=174
real car is 174 inches

12 inches=1 foot
conversion factor
1 ft/12in=1=convesion

so
174 times 1/12=14 and 6/12

the answer is 14 feet and 6 inches or 14.5 feet

Which triangle is it ?
coldgirl [10]
The answer is: The first triangle. The reasons are shown below:

 1. All the triangles are rigth triangles, because they have an angle of 90°. So, let's calculate the others angles of the first one:

 Tan(α)^-1= opposite leg/adjacent leg

 Opposite leg=5
 Adjacent leg=5√3

 Tan(α)^-1= 5/5√3
 Tan(α)^-1=30°

 2. Let's calculate the other angle:

 Tan(α)^-1= opposite leg/adjacent leg

 Now, the opposite leg will be 5√3 and the adjacent leg will be 5. Then:

 Tan(α)^-1= 5√3/5
 Tan(α)^-1=60°

 As you can see, the angles of first triangle are: 30°,60° and 90°.
