33-(x+9)=7x-8
33 - x - 9 = 7x - 8
7x + x = 33 - 9 + 8
8x = 32
x = 4

In triangle ACD, what is the value of X: who ever show works gets brainly.

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that BE is parallel to CD and intersects the 2 other sides, then it divides the 2 sides in proportion, that is

$\frac{AB}{BC}$ = $\frac{AE}{ED}$ , substitute values

$\frac{x}{6}$ = $\frac{10}{8}$ ( cross- multiply )

8x = 60 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 7.5

Kathi and Robert Hawn had a pottery stand at the annual Skippack Craft Fair. They sold some of their pottery at the original pri

grigory [225]

Answer:27 pieces were sold at the original price.

63 pieces were sold at the new price

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the original price.

Let y represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the new price.

They sold some of their pottery at the original price of $9.50 for each piece. This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the original price would be 9.5x

They later decreased the price of each piece by $2. This means that the new price was 9.5 - 2 = $7.5

This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the new price would be 7.5y

If they sold all 90 pieces and took in $729, then the equations are

x + y = 90

9.5x + 7.5y = 729 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 90 - y into equation 1, it becomes

9.5(90 - y) + 7.5y = 729

855 - 9.5y + 7.5y = 729

- 9.5y + 7.5y = 729 - 855

- 2y = - 126

y = - 126/- 2 = 63

Substituting y = 63 into x = 90 - y, it becomes

x = 90 - 63 = 27

There is a fire in the third floor of a building, 22 feet above the ground. The fire truck has a 16-foot tall ladder on top, and

Over [174]

Answer: Yes the ladder will reach the fire

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram for details.

The fire is at point A, while the top of the truck is at point C. The fire is actually burning at 22 feet off the ground, but because the fire truck itself is already 6 feet off the ground, the point that would serve as the base of the building would be 16 feet from the third floor (which is 22 feet minus 6 feet). Hence, point A to point B is 16 feet. So we need to calculate if line AC (from the truck to the fire at the third floor, labeled as b) shall equal the length of the ladder which is 16-foot long.

The angle of the ladder with the top of the truck is 75 degrees. Therefore,

Sin 75 = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin 75 = 16/b

By cross multiplication we now have

b = 16/Sin 75

b = 16/0.9659

b = 16.56

If the distance from A to C is 16.56 feet, then the 16-foot long ladder would reach the fire.
