the measures of two angels are (5x+24) and (9x-17). what is the value of x if these angels are congruets

1 answer:

3 0

You set the expressions equal to each other since they are congruent, then solve.
5x + 24 = 9x - 17
First subtract 24 from both sides to get
5x = 9x - 41
The subtract 9x from both sides to get
-4x = -41
Then divide both sides by -4 to get
x = 41/4 or as a decimal x = 10.25

Calculate f(x) for the given domain values.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The given function is

$f(x) = - 3x$

The domain values are: x=0, 2, -1, 4, -2

When x=0

$f(0) = - 3 \times 0 = 0$

When x=2,

$f(x) = - 3 \times 2 = - 6$

When x=-1

$f(x) = - 3 \times - 1 = 3$

When x=4

$f(4) = - 3 \times 4 = - 12$

When x=-2

$f( - 2) = - 3 \times - 2 = 6$

2. The given function is

$f(x) = \frac{1}{3} x$

When x=3,

$f(3) = \frac{1}{3} \times 3 = 1$

Similarly,

$f( - 3) = \frac{1}{3} \times - 3 = - 1$

$f(300) = \frac{1}{3} \times 300 = 100$

$f( - 180) = \frac{1}{3} \times - 180 = - 60$

$f(99) = \frac{1}{3} \times 99 = 33$

Can you answer simple PEMDAS (order of operations) questions?<br><br>56*2-5\5

steposvetlana [31]

PEMDAS = Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction.

So multiplication first, 56*2= 112

Division second, 5/5=1

Subtraction last, so 112 - 1 = 111

111 is the answer.
