Solve :
1/2(x + 32) = -10....multiply both sides by 2
x + 32 = -10 * 2
x + 32 = -20
x = -20 - 32
x = - 52 <===

check :
1/2(x + 32) = -10.....when x = -52
1/2(-52 + 32) = -10
1/2(-20) = -10
-20/2 = -10
-10 = -10 (correct)

1/2(x + 32) = -10

(x + 32) = - 20

x = -32 - 20

x = - 52

EFV and EDW are straight lines.<br>Find the value of x and of y.​
Makovka662 [10]

Answers:

x = 72

y = 83

============================================================

Explanation:

Angle VFG is 50 degrees. The angle adjacent to this is angle EFG which is 180-50 = 130 degrees.

Angle HDW is 77 degrees. The supplementary angle adjacent to this is 180-77 = 103 degrees which is angle EDH.

Pentagon EFGHD has the following five interior angles

  • E = x
  • F = 130
  • G = 170
  • H = 65
  • D = 103

Note that angles F = 130 and D = 103 were angles EFG and EDH we calculated earlier.

For any pentagon, the interior angles always add to 180(n-2) = 180(5-2) = 180*3 = 540 degrees.

This means,

E+F+G+H+D = 540

x+130+170+65+103 = 540

x+468 = 540

x = 72

---------------------------------------

Now focus your attention on triangle THS

We see that the interior angles are

  • T = y
  • H = 65
  • S = 32

The angle H is 65 degrees because it's paired with the other 65 degree angle shown. They are vertical angles.

For any triangle, the angles always add to 180

T+H+S = 180

y+65+32 = 180

y+97 = 180

y = 180-97

y = 83

Solving simular triangles advanced
Reptile [31]

Answer:

x = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

6            6+x

-------- = -----------

4              5

Using cross products

6*5 = 4 * (6+x)

30 = 24 + 4x

Subtract 24 from each side

30 -24 = 24+4x-24

6 = 4x

Divide each side by 4

6/4 = 4x/4

3/2 = x

A farmer plans to fence a rectangular pasture adjacent to a river the pasture must contain 405,000 square meters
jeyben [28]

The dimensions of the garden that will require the least amount of fencing are 450 m and 900 m and the perimeter of the area is 1800 m.

<h3>What is the area of the rectangle?</h3>

It is defined as the area occupied by the rectangle in two-dimensional planner geometry.

The area of a rectangle can be calculated using the following formula:

Rectangle area = length x width

Let's suppose x and y are the sides of the rectangular garden and y is the parallel to the river.

Then according to the problem:

2x + y = P ..(1)

P is the perimeter of the rectangle.

xy = 405000  (area of the rectangle)

Plug the value of y in the equation (1) from the above equation.

P(x) = 2x + 405000/x

P'(x) = x—405000/x² = 0

x = 450 m

P''(x) > 0 hence at x = 450 the value of P(x) is minimum.

y = 405000/450

y = 900 m

P(min) = 1800 m

Thus, the dimensions of the garden that will require the least amount of fencing are 450 m and 900 m and the perimeter of the area is 1800 m.
