Let x + 1.5 be length of segment above left hand
Let 2x be length of segment below left hand
15 = x + 1.5 + 2x
15 = 3x + 1.5
15 - 1.5 = 3x
13.5 = 3x
13.5/3= 3x/3
4.5 = x
x = 4.5
This is the length above the left hand.
2x must be then 4.5*2 = 9 foot
This is the length below the left hand.
Checking
4.5 + 9 + 1.5 = 15 foot
Adding length below left hand & length of left hand to right hand:
9 + 1.5 = 10.5
The right hand is hence 10.5 foot far up the pole.
Step-by-step explanation:
x2-8x-3x+24=0
x(x-8) 3(x+8)
(x-8)(x+8)
x-8=0 or x+8=0
x=8. x= -8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
"of" means "times"
⅔ of 24 = ⅔ × 24 = 48/3 = 16
x = 3x - 70 as corresponding angles
2x = 70
x = 35
∠LMN = 3x - 70 = 3*35 - 70 =35⁰
∠LMN = 35⁰
