The given trapezoid will have the sides ST, TV, VU, and US. Each of these can be assigned as base or legs. By this, it can be deduced that the given sides, SV and TU are the diagonals. Because the trapezoid is isosceles, the values of SV and TU should also be equal.

                                   SV = TU
                                 3x - 11 = x + 13

Transpose the terms with x and the constants in each sides of the equation.
 
                               3x - x = 13 + 11
                                   2x = 24
                                    <em> x = 12</em>

Thus, the value of x from the equation is 12.

What is the sum of the difference?
Alona [7]

Answer:

A. 9x^4 and 3x^5y

Step-by-step explanation:

there are two ways to solve this:

first way:

You can solve this my substituting numbers for x and y in this case i used 2 for x and 3 for y and see which one is equal to the original equations

the second way is the regular way

when you add or subtract numbers with variables and exponents you want to add the constants and add the exponents in this case 5x^{4} +4x^2 is the same as (5x+4x)^(4+4) = 9x^4and you can do the same process for subtraction

12x^{5}y-9x^5 y\\(12x-9x)^(5+5)*y= 3x^5y

If the composition of two functions is:
NARA [144]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x ≠ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In any case, the domain is restricted to values of the variable for which the function is defined. The value 1/0 is not defined, so the variable cannot allow the denominator to be zero. The denominator x-3 will be zero for x=3, so that value of the variable cannot be in the domain.

The domain is all real numbers except x=3.

_____

<em>Additional comments</em>

It is useful to become familiar with the domains of different functions. As we saw above, the reciprocal of 0 is undefined. The square root of a negative number is undefined. The log of a non-positive number is undefined. Trig functions are defined everywhere, but their inverse functions are not. Polynomial functions are defined everywhere, but ratios of polynomials have the same restriction on denominators that we see above.

Start by finding the scale of this map. At the actual gym, one side length of the snack stand is 60 feet. On the scale map, it i
Elenna [48]

Answer:

I actual foot represents 0.01093 foot on paper

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Actual side length of snack stand = 60 feets

Length of side on map = 20cm

Scaie :

60 feet = 20cm

1 foot = (20/60) cm

1 foot = 0.333 cm

1cm = 0.0328084 foot

0.333cm = (0.33 * 0.0328084) = 0.01093 feets

Scale :

I actual foot represents 0.01093 foot on paper

A game costs $39.00. But the new special edition version is going to be $56.94. What is the increased percent?
astraxan [27]

Answer:

46%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Make an expression</u>

<u />39.00 * x = 56.94

39x = 56.94

<u>Step 2:  Divide both sides by 39</u>

<u />39x / 39 = 56.94 / 39

x = 1.46

<u>Step 3:  Find the percent</u>

<u />1.46 - 1 -> Gives us the increased percent

0.46 * 100

46%

Answer:  46%

40. Mike has two electric train sets: A and B. Each train is on its own circular track.
JulsSmile [24]
"He starts both trains at the same time. Train A returns to its starting point every 12 seconds and Train B returns to its starting point every 9 seconds". Basically, what you need to do is find the least common multiple. The least common multiple of 12 and 9 is 36, so the least amount of time, in seconds, that both trains will arrive at the starting points at the same time is 36 seconds.
