Answer:
The expression 7x represents the height of the container.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question:
We are being informed that; if the length of the container is half of a foot longer than its width.
Let the width be x;
Then the length of the container can now be ; x+1/2
We all known that the volume of a rectangular prism is : V= l×w×h
here;
l = length
w = width
h = height
If we rewrite the given expression :
;
Then we factor we make a similar coefficient of the above equation, the remaining entities left in the parenthesis should be a linear term with a leading coefficient of 1 to match the expression for the length of the container.
i.e
Hence, if the length of the container is half a foot longer than its width, x, then the expression 7x represents the height of the container.
Answer: X = 27
Step-by-step explanation: If we observe very closely, we have two similar triangles in the diagram. The first one is ABC and the other triangle is EDC. Also take note that angle ACB in the first triangle is equal in measurement to angle ECD (45 degrees) in the other triangle, (Opposite angles).
Hence in triangle ECD, we have identified two angles so far which are angle 2x + 10 and angle 45. Same applies to triangle ABC, we already have two angles which are, 3x - 10 and 45.
However angle D in the second triangle is equal in measurement to angle B in the first triangle
(Alternate angles).
Hence we have a third angle in triangle ABC which is
Angle B = 2x + 10.
Therefore 3x - 10 + (2x + 10) + 45 = 180
(Sum of angles in a triangle)
3x - 10 + 2x + 10 + 45 = 180
By collecting like terms we now have
3x + 2x = 180 + 10 - 10 - 45
5x = 135
Divide both sides by 5,
x = 27
Answer:
(5, 9 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Under a reflection in the y- axis
a point (x, y ) → (- x, y ), thus
(- 5, 9 ) → (5, 9 )
