Answer is x=2 bacause u just jave to listen. this is the equation . 3x+4=5x-2. solve
Answer:
0.7x/0.8y = x/y * 0.7/0.8 = x/y * 0.875
So the fraction is reduced by 12.5%
Let x=ab=ac, and y=bc, and z=ad.
Since the perimeter of the triangle abc is 36, you have:
Perimeter of abc = 36
ab + ac + bc = 36
x + x + y = 36
(eq. 1) 2x + y = 36
The triangle is isosceles (it has two sides with equal length: ab and ac). The line perpendicular to the third side (bc) from the opposite vertex (a), divides that third side into two equal halves: the point d is the middle point of bc. This is a property of isosceles triangles, which is easily shown by similarity.
Hence, we have that bd = dc = bc/2 = y/2 (remember we called bc = y).
The perimeter of the triangle abd is 30:
Permiter of abd = 30
ab + bd + ad = 30
x + y/2 + z =30
(eq. 2) 2x + y + 2z = 60
So, we have two equations on x, y and z:
(eq.1) 2x + y = 36
(eq.2) 2x + y + 2z = 60
Substitute 2x + y by 36 from (eq.1) in (eq.2):
(eq.2') 36 + 2z = 60
And solve for z:
36 + 2z = 60 => 2z = 60 - 36 => 2z = 24 => z = 12
The measure of ad is 12.
If you prefer a less algebraic reasoning:
- The perimeter of abd is half the perimeter of abc plus the length of ad (since you have "cut" the triangle abc in two halves to obtain the triangle abd).
- Then, ad is the difference between the perimeter of abd and half the perimeter of abc:
ad = 30 - (36/2) = 30 - 18 = 12
Ok so
1/4 of total eaten
3/4 left
3/5 of 3/4 eaten
9/20 left
18=9/20 of whole
multiply both sides by 20
360=9 of whole
divide both sides by 9
40=whole
40 total originlly
Answer:
x=9.2394
Step-by-step explanation:
It's tan we're going to use because we're looking for the opposite and we already have the angle
Therefore, x will be
Tan 57= x/6
1.5399= x/6
x= 6*1.5399
x= 9.2394
You can approximate it to the nearest whole number which will be 9
