Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
given that y varies directly with x
mathematically we can express this as
y = k x , where k is a constant
step 1: find k
given x = 3 and y = 21
y = k x
21 = k (3)
k = 7
hence the equation becomes
y = 7 x
when y = 105,
105 = 7x
x = 105 / 7 = 15
That is false because you have to subtract the exponents not divide
No.
Tom forgot about the area of the top/roof, the floor and roof are different dimensions/areas, making his method incomplete.
He needs to find area of Roof, Floor then times height.
The 3 inside angles of a triangle equal 180.
Add the 3 angles together to equal 180:
X + (5x-20) + 4x = 180
Simplify the left side by adding like terms:
10x-20 = 180
Add 20 to each side:
10x = 200
Divide both sides by 10:
x = 20
Angle A = x = 20
Angle B = 4X = 4(20) = 80
Angle C = 5x-20 = 5(20) -20 = 100-20 = 80
"A scale factor is a number which scales, or multiplies, some quantity. ... In the field of measurements, the scale factor of an instrument is sometimes referred to as sensitivity. The ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures is also called a scale factor." (not my wording but i hope this helps)
