If line c is parallel to line d, the measure of angle 9 should be the same as angle 11 according to the Corresponding angles postulate. I<span>f a transversal (line b in this case) intersects two lines (lines c and d) and the corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.

So now since the m</span>∠11 is 120 and m∠11 is congruent to m∠9 then we can solve for x.

m∠9 = 6x
m∠11 = 120
<span>
6x = 120

Divide both sides by 6 to get x.

6x/6 = 120/6
x = 20

The answer is then A. </span>

Solve for x in the equation 3 x squared minus 18 x + 5 = 47.

ryzh [129]

Answer:

x= 3 + $\sqrt{23}$ , 3 - $\sqrt{23}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You use the quadratic formula to get x= $\frac{18+6\sqrt{23} }{6} ,\frac{18-6\sqrt{23} }{6}$

Then you simplify and get the answers x= 3 + $\sqrt{23}$ , 3 - $\sqrt{23}$

If x varies directly with y and x = 3.5 when y = 14, find x when y = 18.

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

x = 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

there's definitely other ways to solve this, but I used a proportion.

$\frac{3.5}{x} = \frac{14}{18}$

Then you can make this equation:

14x = 3.5 * 18

I solved for it and got 4.5 .
