Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The parallel lines divide the transversals into proportional segments, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
9(x + 4) = 54 ( divide both sides by 9 )
x + 4 = 6 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
x = 2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Neither.
It is a complex number. The - sign is the culprit. sqrt(-144) = i * sqrt(144) = 12 i
The "i" is an imaginary representation for the square root of -1. It is a definition for sqrt(-1). So a new category of number has been created. The ancients would have been profoundly surprised to learn that such a thing existed.
100 x 9 = 900
so
900 / 100 = 9
