ICE Princess25 [194]3 years ago

Answer:

<h2>x = 10</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangles are similar, then the corresponding sides are in proportion:

\dfrac{20}{20+8}=\dfrac{3x}{4x+2}

\dfrac{20}{28}=\dfrac{3x}{4x+2}

\dfrac{20:4}{28:4}=\dfrac{3x}{4x+2}

\dfrac{5}{7}=\dfrac{3x}{4x+2}                 <em>cross multiply</em>

5(4x+2)=(7)(3x)        <em>use distributive property </em><em>a(b + c) = ab + ac</em>

(5)(4x)+(5)(2)=21x

20x+10=21x             <em>subtract 20x from both sides</em>

10=1x\to x=10

A triangle has one side that measures x, and the other two sides each measure 4 inches less than x. The perimeter is 19 inches.
zalisa [80]
Perimeter of a triangle = all 3 sides added together

x + (x - 4) + (x - 4) = 19
3x - 8 = 19
3x = 19 + 8
3x = 27
x = 27/3
x = 9 <==

The function h(x) is given below.
viva [34]

The inverse function will be h⁻¹(x) = { ( 3, -5 ) , ( 5, -7),( 6 ,-9),( 10,-12),(12,-16)}.

<h3>What is function?</h3>

A function is defined as the expression that set up the relationship between the dependent variable and independent variable.

Given function is:-

h(x) = {(3, –5), (5, –7), (6, –9), (10, –12), (12, –16)}

The inverse function is given as:-

h(x,y) = h⁻¹( y,x )

So the inverse function will be:-

h⁻¹( x, y ) = { ( 3, -5 ) , ( 5, -7),( 6 ,-9),( 10,-12),(12,-16)}.

Therefore  inverse function will be h⁻¹(x) = { ( 3, -5 ) , ( 5, -7),( 6 ,-9),( 10,-12),(12,-16)}.
