Solve for x <br><br> (5x-1) 8x

trapecia [35]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is the figure of a kite.

Opposite sides are equal... (given)

Since, measures of the angles opposite to equal sides are equal.

Also, diagonals of a kite interests at right angles.

Therefore,

$8x \degree + (5x - 1) \degree + 90 \degree = 180 \degree \\ \\ (8x + 5x - 1) \degree = 180 \degree - 90 \degree\\ \\(13x - 1) \degree = 90 \degree\\ \\ 13x - 1 = 90 \\ \\ 13x = 90 + 1 \\ \\ 13x = 91 \\ \\ x = \frac{91}{13} \\ \\ x = 7$

Therefore,

The sum of the first 5 terms of an AP is 30 and the sum of the four term from T6 to T9 (inclusive) is 69. Find the AP

Ainat [17]

Answer: The AP = 1, ⁷/₂, 6, ¹⁷/₂, 11 ..............

Step-by-step explanation:

From the first statement,

S₅ = ⁵/₂(2a + ( n - 1 )d } = 30

5(2a + 4d )d = 60

10a + 20d = 60

reduce to lowest term to easy calculation by dividing through by 10

a + 2d = 6 -----------------------------------1

second statement

sum of the next 4 terms inclusive

T₉ = ⁹/₂(2a + 8d ) = 69

9(2a + 8d ) = 30 + 69

18a + 72d = 99 x 2

18a + 72d = 198

divide through by 18 to reduce to lowest time

a + 4d = 11 ------------------------------------------2

Now solve the two equation simultaneously to find a and d

a + 2d = 6

a + 4d = 11

-2d = -5

d = ⁵/₂.

Now substitute for d to get a

a + 2(⁵/₂) = 6

a + 5 = 6

a = 6 - 5

a = 1.

Therefore the AP = 1 , ⁷/₂ , 6 , ¹⁷/₂ , 11 , ..............
