Answer:

x=75

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem.  Put the side of the small triangle over the side of the large triangle.

42           50

------ = ----------

42+63        50+x

42           50

------ = ----------

105          50+x

Using cross products

42(50+x) = 50*(105)

2100+42x = 5250

Subtract 2100 from each side

2100-2100+42x = 5250-2100

42x =3150

Divide by 42

42x/42 = 3150/42

x = 75

2) Which expression is equivalent to:<br> y•y3•y2
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

y^6

Step-by-step explanation:

When multiplying terms with exponents that have the same base, the rule is to add the exponents. y * y^3 * y^2 = y^(1 + 3 + 2). (remember that y has a hidden exponent of 1, we just don't write that because it is redundant and unnecessary). y^(1 + 3 + 2) = y^6

Please help me solve for x
ohaa [14]

Answer:

You would do this problem like a normal varible problem. x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 9x is a right angle the inside would also be 9x

9x+4x+10+40=180

180 because that is how much a triangle equals

combine like terms

13x+50=180

subtract 50 from both sides

13x=130

divide by 13

x=10

<u>Hope this helps!</u>
