Answer:

27 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the triangle angle bisector theorem

x+8 2x-5

-------- = ----------

10 14

Using cross products

14 (x+8) = 10 (2x-5)

Distribute

14x+112 = 20x -50

Subtract 14x from each side

14x-14x+112 = 20x-14x -50

112 = 6x - 50

Add 50 to each side

112+50 = 6x+50

162 = 6x

Divide by 6

162/6 = 6x/6

27 =x

Xander needs to collect at least 120 cans for a food drive to earn community service credit. He has already collected 64 items.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

c ≥ 56 is the REQUIRED INEQUALITY.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given question is INCOMPLETE.

Xander needs to collect at least 120 cans for a food drive to earn community service credit. He has already collected 64 items. Choose the inequality and solution to represent the number of cans, c, that Xander must still collect.

Now, here:

The number of cans Xander needed to collect = At least 120

The number of items already collected = 64

c: the number of cans, c, that Xander must still collect.

Now, the number of cans to be collected - Cans already collected

= 120 - 64 = 56

So, the number of can he must collect to make a TOTAL OF AT LEAST 120 cans = 56 cans

⇒ The number of cans to be collected ≥ 56 cans

⇒c ≥ 56 cans

or, c ≥ 56 is the REQUIRED INEQUALITY.

A rancher wants to fence in an area of 1000000 square feet in a rectangular field and then divide it in half with a fence down t

frosja888 [35]

The shortest length of the fence used by the rancher in a rectangular field of 1000000 square feet is 4899 ft.

<h3>What is the area of a rectangle?</h3>

The area of a rectangle is a region enclosed in four corners where two opposite sides are equal. The area of the rectangle is mathematically expressed as:

Area of a rectangle = length(x) × breath(y)

1000000 sq.ft = (x) × (y) ---- (1)

However, to determine the fencing, we have:

Length of fencing = 2x + 2y
