Process:

2/3x -7 = 17
17 + 7 = 24
2/3x = 24

2/3 = 24/x
24 ÷ 2 = 12
12 x 3 = 36
x = 36

Answer: X = 36

2/3x - 7 = 17

First add 7 to both sides because that's the inverse

2/3x -7 = 17

+7 +7

2/3x = 24

Then you multiply the remaining numbers by 3 because that's the inverse of division

3(2/3x) = 3(24)

2x = 72

Then you divide by 2 to get the x alone

2x = 72

2 2

x = 36

That's your answer

Annie is framing a photo with a length of 6 inches and a width of 4 inches. The distance from the edge of the photo to the edge

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Part a) The quadratic function is $4x^{2} +20x-39=0$

Part b) The value of x is $1.5\ in$

Part c) The photo and frame together are $7\ in$ wide

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) Write a quadratic function to find the distance from the edge of the photo to the edge of the frame

Let

x----> the distance from the edge of the photo to the edge of the frame

we know that

$(6+2x)(4+2x)=63\\24+12x+8x+4x^{2}=63\\ 4x^{2} +20x+24-63=0\\4x^{2} +20x-39=0$

Part b) What is the value of x?

Solve the quadratic equation $4x^{2} +20x-39=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem

we have

$4x^{2} +20x-39=0$

$a=4\\b=20\\c=-39$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-20(+/-)\sqrt{20^{2}-4(4)(-39)}} {2(4)}$

$x=\frac{-20(+/-)\sqrt{1,024}} {8}$

$x=\frac{-20(+/-)32} {8}$

$x=\frac{-20(+)32} {8}=1.5\ in$ -----> the solution

$x=\frac{-20(-)32} {8}=-6.5\ in$

Part c) How wide are the photo and frame together?

$(4+2x)=4+2(1.5)=7\ in$

Find the area of the irregular polygon, pls hurry I need this quickkkkkk

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

To find the area of an irregular polygon you must first separate the shape into regular polygons, or plane shapes. You then use the regular polygon area formulas to find the area of each of those polygons. The last step is to add all those areas together to get the total area of the irregular polygon

and i thank that it is b 120 in2
