I am hoping this was explained well enough:

Step  1  :

Isolate the square root on the left hand side :

    Radical already isolated  

    √2x-7 = 5-x

Step  2  :

Eliminate the radical on the left hand side :

    Raise both sides to the second power

    (√2x-7)2 = (5-x)2

    After squaring  

    2x-7 = x2-10x+25

Step  3  :

Solve the quadratic equation :

    Rearranged equation

    x2  - 12x  + 32 = 0

    This equation has two rational roots:

      {x1, x2}={8, 4}

 

Step  4  :

Check that the first solution is correct :

    Original equation

    √2x-7 = 5-x

    Plug in 8 for  x  

     √2•(8)-7 = 5-(8)

     Simplify

     √9 = -3

     Solution does not check  

     3 ≠ -3  

Step  5  :

Check that the second solution is correct :

    Original equation

    √2x-7 = 5-x

    Plug in 4 for  x  

     √2•(4)-7 = 5-(4)

     Simplify

     √1 = 1

     Solution checks !!

    Solution is:  

     x = 4

One solution was found :

                       x = 4

What best describes the area of a polygon
never [62]

Answer:

The area of any regular polygon is given by the formula: Area = (a x p)/2, where a is the length of the apothem and p is the perimeter of the polygon. Plug the values of a and p in the formula and get the area. As an example, let's use a hexagon (6 sides) with a side (s) length of 10.

The area of a polygon is the two-dimensional set of all points surrounded by the sides of the polygon.

If you're looking for an equation, it varies based on the number of sides and the shape of the polygon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Apothem

A regular polygon is equilateral (it has equal sides) and equiangular (it has equal angles). To find the area of a regular polygon, you use an apothem — a segment that joins the polygon’s center to the midpoint of any side and that is perpendicular to that side (segment HM in the following figure is an apothem).

If a change dispenser contains 32 coins consisting of

<h3>Answer:  19 dimes</h3>

=================================================

Work Shown:

d = number of dimes

q = 32-d = number of quarters

$5.15 = 515 cents

10d+25q = 515

10d+25(32-d) = 515

10d+800-25d = 515

-15d+800 = 515

-15d = 515-800

-15d = -285

d = -285/(-15)

d = 19

There are 19 dimes. You can stop here if you want.

q = 32-d = 32-19 = 13

There are 13 quarters

-------------------------------

Check:

1 dime = 10 cents

19 dimes = 19*10 = 190 cents

1 quarter = 25 cents

13 quarters = 13*25 = 325 cents

total value = 190 cents + 325 cents = 515 cents = $5.15

The answer is confirmed.

Find the amount of ice cream in a cone if the radius of the cone is 5 cm and its height is 8 cm. The ice cream fully fills the c
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

471 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = cone + hemisphere

= [⅓×pi×r²×h] + [⅔×pi×r³]

= ⅓pi×r²[h + 2r]

= ⅓×3.14×5²[8 + 2(5)]

= (157/6)(18)

= 471

This is using pi as 3.14

A slightly different value of pi will alter the final answer
