Option A

<u>Answer: </u>

The value of x in the equation 2(x - 3) + 5x = 5(2x + 6) is -12

<u>Solution: </u>

From question given that

2(x - 3) + 5x = 5(2x + 6)

Open the brackets,

2x – 6 + 5x = 10x + 30

Rewrite the above equation,

2x + 5x – 6 = 10x + 30

On simplifying the above equation, we get

7x – 6 = 10x + 30

Now adding 6 on both sides,

7x – 6 + 6 =10x + 30 + 6

7x = 10x + 36

On subtracting 10x on both sides,

7x - 10x = 10x + 36 - 10x

-3x = 36

On dividing -3 on both sides,

x = -12

Hence on simplifying 2(x - 3) + 5x = 5(2x + 6) we get value of x is -12. Hence Option (A) is correct.

x-the\ number\\\\x^2-(5+3x)=0\\\\x^2-5-3x=0\\\\x^2-3x-5=0

Use\ the\ quadratic\ formula:\\a^2x+bx+c=0\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\\\if\ \Delta > 0\ then\ x_1=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\ and\ x_2=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\\\\if\ \Delta=0\ then\ x_0=\dfrac{-b}{2a}\\\\if\ \Delta < 0\ then\ no\ solution

x^2-3x-5=0\\\\a=1;\ b=-3;\ c=-5\\\\\Delta=(-3)^2-4\cdot1\cdot(-5)+3+20=29 \ \textgreater \  0\\\\\sqrt\Delta=\sqrt{29}\\\\x_1=\dfrac{3-\sqrt{29}}{2\cdot1}=\dfrac{3-\sqrt{29}}{2} \ \textless \  0\\\\x_2=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{29}}{2\cdot1}=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{29}}{2} \ \textgreater \  0

Answer:\ \boxed{x=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{29}}{2}}

Which of the following angles is coterminal with -4pi/3?<br><br> -2pi/3<br> -pi/3<br> pi/3<br> 2pi/3
PolarNik [594]
Coterminal angles are angles that end in the same position on a unit circle.

We can find angles that are coterminal to -4pi/3 by adding and subtracting 2pi.

-4pi/3 + 2pi = 2pi/3

The answer is 2pi/3

Someone please help me on this!
Alexxx [7]

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

This can be proven with the SAS theorem (side-angle-side)

With a perpendicular bisector, the line it bisects is cut directly in half. This creates two equal sides:

GJ=IJ

and it creates two 90° angles:

∠GJH=∠IJH

And because of the reflexive property of congruence:

JH=JH

Side-Angle-Side.
