1/2 * n * (n+1) = 1081

distribute

1/2 n^2 +1/2n -1081=0

factor out 1/2

1/2 (n^2 +n -2162) =0

multiply each side by 2

(n^2 +n -2162) =0

factor

(n-46) (n+47) =0

n=46, n=-47

n cannot be negative

n=46

Answer 46

AB, CD and EF are straight lines. AB is parallel to CD. Work out the size of angle y
mylen [45]

Answer: 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2x + 16 = 3x + -12

Reorder the terms:

16 + 2x = 3x + -12

Reorder the terms:

16 + 2x = -12 + 3x

Solving

16 + 2x = -12 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

16 + 2x + -3x = -12 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 2x + -3x = -1x

16 + -1x = -12 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

16 + -1x = -12 + 0

16 + -1x = -12

Add '-16' to each side of the equation.

16 + -16 + -1x = -12 + -16

Combine like terms: 16 + -16 = 0

0 + -1x = -12 + -16

-1x = -12 + -16

Combine like terms: -12 + -16 = -28

-1x = -28

Divide each side by '-1'.

x = 28

Simplifying

x = 28

First you have to realize that these are similar triangles.

You can do a easy cross multiplication with these types of questions by forming an equation with the similar angles.

put the smaller above the decimal and the bigger one below like this.

\frac{8}{25}=\frac{12}{x}

Now cross multiply

8x=300

x=37.5
