Answer:
9. a = -1
10. b = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The term "cross multiplying" is used to describe the appearance of the result of multiplying both sides of the equation by the product of the denominators. The result is the left numerator is multiplied by the right denominator, and the right numerator is multiplied by the left denominator. The property of equality that supports this is the multiplication property of equality, which tells you the values of the variables are unchanged if you multiply both sides by the same thing. That multiplier is chosen so that it cancels the denominators.

<em>Additional comments</em>
Here are the answer checks:
9. (2(-1) -5)/(3(-1)-4) = (2(-1)-3)/(3(-1)-2) ⇒ -7/-7 = -5/-5 . . . yes
10. (10 -2)/(10 -6) = (10 +2)/(10 -4) ⇒ 8/4 = 12/6 . . . yes

Sometimes this method of solving the problem will result in extraneous solutions. Those will generally be values of the variable that make one or more of the denominators be zero. You must be careful to exclude those values from any possible solution set.
Answer:
891.77ft
Step-by-step explanation:
ok so if one angle is 48 we can also work with sine
SOHCAHTOA
SO SINE IS EQUAL TO OPPOSITE/HYPOTENUSE
Sine 48=0.7431
0.7431×1200=891.17ft
I hope this helps. X is equal to 4 and -9
Answer:
Part 1) 
Part 2)
a) 
b) 
c) 
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The complete question in the attached figure</em></u>
Part 1) Write an expression for the perimeter of the shape
we know that
The figure is composed by a larger square, a rectangle and a smaller square
1) The area of the larger square is given

so
The length and the width of the larger square is x units
2) The area of the rectangle is given

so
The length of the rectangle is x units and the width is 1 unit
3) The length and the width of the smaller square is x units
see the attached figure N 2 to better understand the problem
Find out the perimeter
The perimeter is the sum of all the sides.
so


Part 2) Find the perimeter for each of the given values of x.
a) For x=7 units
Substitute the value of x in the expression of the perimeter

b) For x=5.5 units
Substitute the value of x in the expression of the perimeter

b) For x=7/3 units
Substitute the value of x in the expression of the perimeter
