Adding rational numbers involves adding decimals and repeating decimals like 4.6666666..... Whole numbers on the other hand involves adding 7+6 which arent exactly decimals
Answer:
x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
these are similar triangles
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
divide by 4
4x/4 = 40/x
x =10
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the value of x, we use the mid-segment theorem of trapezoid
The theorem is that the mid-segment is half the sum of the other two segments
We have this as
;
5x - 20 = 1/2(2x + 6 + 4x + 2)
2(5x-20) = 6x + 8
5x -20 = 3x + 4
5x -3x = 4 + 20
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12
Answer: it is 6
Step-by-step explanation: because they are the same length.
