<h2>6 is the answer.</h2>
just simple
Ok, so since it doesn't give a value for "my age", we'll call it x. So the sentence translates into an equation...
200 reduced means... 200 -
by 2 times my age means... 2x
equals 16 means... = 16
200 - 2x = 16
Now let's solve for x to find "my age"
First subtract 200 from each side to begin to isolate x
-2x = -184
Divide each side by -2 to isolate x
x = -184/-2
x = 92
I'm 92 years old!
The distributive property
Marco's equation is correct. Cosine is an even function, which means that for every x, f(-x) = f(x). In other words, you get the same answer for a negative value that you would for its corresponding positive value.
Answer:
Here's how I would do it.
Step-by-step explanation:
If two triangles are similar, corresponding sides are in the same ratio.
We know the measures of b and a, so we can calculate the ratio b/a.
d and b are in the same ratio, so

We know the measures of c, b, and a, so we can calculate the value of d.
