What is the value of x? x = ___

Mathematics
1 answer:
gregori [183]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, create a proportion. A proportion is two equal ratios for similar figures. The two triangles are similar because they are the same shape but not the same size. Create ratios between corresponding sides of figures.

\frac{12}{2x+1}=\frac{8}{x+4}

To solve for x, cross multiply:

12(x+4) = (2x+1)(8)

12x + 48 = 16x + 8

         48 = 4x + 8

         40 = 4x

         10 = x

Jessica is shopping for a new car. She found a blue car that has a 12-gallon gas tank and can go 384 miles on one tank. She foun
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Silver car

Step-by-step explanation:

It seems pretty hard but it's actually REALLY easy. gas mileage means the number of miles you can go on a particular amount of gallons. But the gallons have to be the same for both cars so that it's fair.

so let's go with 10 gallons. pretty broad number right?

so to get 12 gallons(the gallons for the blue car) to 10, We divide it by 12 then multiply it by 10. Try it yourself, (12/12)*10=???

then we do that to 384 (the miles for the blue car)

(384/12)*10=320

so 320 is the mileage for the first car. Repeat the steps for the silver car!

(14/14)*10=10

so then: (504/14)*10= 360.

So which is bigger, 320 or 360?

360 is bigger, meaning it has better gas mileage.

What is the value of x??
umka21 [38]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle shown there is an example of a vertical angle. An opposite angle formed by intercecting lines. They are always congruent, so to solve this, you must set them equal to eachother. you can gather the equation 4x-5=59. From there, you just solve it like you would any two step equation.

Please help thank you so so so much <br><br> there is more than one answer
Luden [163]

Answer:

B and C work. A and D do not.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is one of those questions that you have to go through each answer to see what the results are. You don't have to go far to eliminate A and D so let's do that first.

A]

5n + 6

Let n = 1

5(1) + 6

5 + 6= 11

However there is trouble beginning with n = 2

5*2 + 6

10 + 6

16     All you need is one wrong answer and the choice is toast. So A won't work.

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

Try D

6(n - 1)+ 5

n=0

6*(-1) + 5

-6 + 5

- 1

And D has been eliminated with just 1 attempt. n= 2 or n = 1 would be even worse.  D is not one of the answers.

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

B

Let n = 1

6(1) + 5

6 + 5

11 The first term works.

n = 2

6*(2) + 5

12 + 5

17 and n = 2 works as well. Just in case it is hard to believe, let's try n = 3 because so far, everything is fine.

n = 3

6*(3) + 5

18 + 5

23 And this also works. I'll let you deal with n = 4

========

C

n = 0

6(0 + 1) + 5

6*1 + 5

6 + 5

11

n = 1

6(1 + 1) + 5

6*2 + 5

12 + 5

17 which works.

So C is an answer.
