Find the value of the variable and XP, if X is between P and Q. XQ= 13, XP= 5x - 3, PQ= 40

Mathematics
1 answer:
Naddik [55]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

  • x = 6
  • XP = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

  PX + XQ = PQ

  5x -3 + 13 = 40

  5x = 30 . . . . . . . . subtract 10

  x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

You can find XP either from its algebraic expression or from its sum with XQ.

  XP + XQ = PQ

  XP + 13 = 40 . . . fill in given values

  XP = 27 . . . . . . . subtract 13

Also

  XP = 5x -3 = 5(6) -3

  XP = 27

tankabanditka [31]
AB + BC + AC = 96
but AB = AC  [isosceles triangle]
2AB + 24 = 96
2AB = 96 - 24 = 72
AB = 72/2 = 36
AB = 36 degrees.

Describe the resulting effects on the parallel bases of a trapezoid after reflecting it across
Margarita [4]

Answer:

D. The parallel bases remains parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection is an example of solid transformation in which an object is turned about a line or point to produce its image. Though the initial orientation of the given object changes, but its shape and size is preserved.

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral. If it undergo reflection across the x-axis, then y-axis; its parallel bases would remain parallel. Though the initial orientation of the trapezoid would have changed.

You roll a die twice. Solve for the probability. P(3, then even)
Monica [59]
For the first roll, you expect that you would get number 3 of a die.
Next for the second roll, you expect that you would get an even number. Since there are 6 sides of a die, so the even numbers are only 2, 4 and 6.
