Answer:
x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the angle bisector theorem to solve this problem
8 12
-------- = ---------
x+4 2x+1
Using cross products
8(2x+1) = 12(x+4)
Distribute
16x+8 = 12x+48
Subtract 12x from each side
16x -12x +8 = 12x-12x +48
4x +8 = 48
Subtract 8 from each side
4x+8-8 = 48-8
4x = 40
4x/4 = 40/4
x=10
Answer:
Ij and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Vanessa: a dime = 10 cents = 0.10
A penny = 1 cent = 0.01
6 x 0.10 = 0.60
2 x 0.01 = 0.02
Total = 0.60 + 0.02 = 0.62
Joachim : a dollar = 1.00
3 x 0.10 = 0.30
5 x 0.01 = 0.05
Total = 1.00 + 0.30 + 0.05 = 1.35
Jimmy: total = 5.00 + 0.07 = 5.07
Total of all 3: 0.62 + 1.35 + 5.07 = $7.04
This is less than $8 so they don’t have enough.
They need: 8.00 - 7.04 = $0.96 more
N = {15 +- root of ( 225 + 64) } / 2
= {15 +- root of 289 } / 24
= 15 + 17 } / 2 or { 15 -17 } /2
= 16 or -1
