<span>Center City West = x
</span><span>Center City East = (x + 257)

Solve for x to find the capacity for Center City West and then we can find the capacity for Center City East.

(x + 257) + x = 1221
x + x + 257 = 1221
2x  + 257 - 257 = 1221 - 257
2x = 964
2x / 2 = 964 / 2
x = 482
</span><span>Center City West capacity = 482
</span>
Now to find Center City East capacity we substitute 482 for x in (x + 257) 

(x + 257) 
(482 + 257)
482 + 257 = 739

Center City East capacity  = 739
Center City West capacity = 482

Given klmn is a trapezoid, kl = mn, m&lt;1 = m&lt;2, lm/kn = 8/9, pklmn = 132. Find: the length of the legs
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

The length of legs lm, mn, and lk is 32 while that of kn is 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram is attached in the answer.

As both the angles are equal thus the two forms isosceles triangles. This is true because the converse of base angle theorem is applicable here. The theorem clearly states that when a trapezoid is divided by the diagonal, it forms two set of angles where m<1=m<2 and m<lmk=m<nmk

This leads the two set of legs such as

\dfrac{lm}{kn}=\dfrac{8}{9}

Or this could be written as

lm=8x\\kn=9x

Now the remaining two sides are given as

lk=lm as this form an isosceles triangle so

lk=8x

Similarly

mn=lm\\

Or

mn=8x

Now the perimeter is given as

\text{perimeter}=lm+mn+kn+lk\\

Here perimeter is given as 132 so this gives:

\text{perimeter}=lm+mn+kn+lk\\132=8x+8x+8x+9x\\132=33x\\x=\dfrac{132}{33}\\x=4

So the four legs are of length as given below:

lm=8x=8\times 4=32\\mn=8x=8\times 4=32\\lk=8x=8\times 4=32\\kn=9x=9\times4=36

So the length of legs lm, mn, and lk is 32 while that of kn is 36.

Multiple Choice!!! A school bought a special type of lock for all student lockers. Every student had to create his or her own pa
Elina [12.6K]
<span>Say the code only needed to be one number long. Going from 0-9, there are ten digits. Therefore, there are ten unique codes.

Now say the code has to be two numbers long. There are ten possibilities for the first digit, 0-9. But the second digit only has nine possibilities, since each number has to be different. (The first number might be 0, so the second can only go from 1-9) For each of the first ten possibilities, there are nine possibilities for the second. We multiply those two numbers together, 10 * 9, and we get 90.

Now we just extend the logic. The third number only has eight possibilities, while the fourth number only has seven. 10 * 9 * 8 * 7 = 5040 possible codes. I hope this helped! has a great day! :)</span>

Solve for x please help (show work)
igomit [66]

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3(6x-3)+2(x-1) = -7

Distribute

2x-1 +2x-2 = -7

Combine like terms

4x -3 = -7

Add 3 to each side

4x-3+3 = -7+3

4x = -4

Divide by 4

4x/4 = -4/4

x = -1
