Answer:

D. 144

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle BAC is similar to triangle DEC, so you can set up a ratio:

$\frac{84}{156-x} = \frac{7}{x}$

Then cross multiply

84x = 7 (156 - x)

84x = 1092 - 7x

Add 7x to both sides.

91x = 1092

Divide both sides by 91.

x = 12

AC = 156 - x

AC = 156 - 12

AC = 144

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ CED and Δ CAB are similar thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{CE}{CA}$ = $\frac{ED}{AB}$ , substitute values

$\frac{x}{156-x}$ = $\frac{7}{84}$ = $\frac{1}{12}$ ( cross- multiply )

12x = 156 - x ( add x to both sides )

13x = 156 ( divide both sides by 13 )

x = 12

Thus

AC = 156 - x = 156 - 12 = 144 → D

Can I have help with this, I have drawn out a graph and marked my points so far.

Answer:

D. 2x²

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so the first thing to do is remember the first number in parentheses is x, and the second number is y.

You're trying to figure out which expression turns x into y in each set.

Just by plugging in the numbers into each expression I found that the answer is 2x².

I'll prove this starting with (1, 2).

1² = 1

2 x 1 = 2

So, y = 2x²!

Next, (2, 8).

2² = 4

2 x 4 = 8

So, y = 2x²!

I'm not going to demonstrate with the other two but I hope you understand. Just plug the values of x and y into the equation and see which is correct.

Using the method of completing the square, put each circle into the form

tatiyna

Answer:

Standard form: $(x-\frac{1}{2})^2 + (y-0)^2 = 15$

Center: $(\frac{1}{2}, 0)$

Radius: $r =\sqrt{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in the standard form is

$(x-h)^{2} + (y-k)^{2} = r^{2}$

Where the point (h, k) is the center of the circle

To transform this equation $4x^{2} -4x + 4y^{2} - 59 = 0$ this equation in the standard form we use the method of square.

First, we group similar variables

$(4x^{2} -4x) + (4y^{2}) - 59 = 0$

Divide both sides of equality by 4

$(x^{2} -x) + (y^{2}) - 14.75 = 0$

Now we complete square for variable x.

Take the coefficient "b" that accompanies the variable x and divide by 2. Then, elevate the result to the square:

$b =-1\\\\\frac{b}{2}= \frac{-1}{2}= -\frac{1}{2}\\\\(\frac{b}{2})^2= (-\frac{1}{2})^2 = \frac{1}{4}$

Now add $(\frac{b}{2})^2$ on both sides of the equality

$(x^{2} -x +\frac{1}{4}) + (y^{2}) - 14.75 = (\frac{1}{4})$

Factor the expression and simplify the independent terms

$(x-\frac{1}{2})^2 + (y^{2}) = 15$

$(x-\frac{1}{2})^2 + (y-0)^2 = 15$

Then

$h =\frac{1}{2}\\\\k=0$

and the center is $(\frac{1}{2}, 0)$

radius $r =\sqrt{15}$

Find the value of x.

drek231 [11]

Answer:

x= 13 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 90 degree angle. We can create an equation to find x

68+x+9= 90

77+x= 90

-77 -77

x= 13 degrees

Hope this helps!
