Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Extend line AB so that it intersects ray CE at point G. Then angles BGC and BAD are "alternate interior angles", hence congruent.
The angle at B is exterior to triangle BCG, and is equal to the sum of the interior angles at C and G:
138 = (376 -23x) +(x^2 -8x)
Subtracting 138 and collecting terms we have ...
x^2 -31x +238 = 0
For your calculator, a=1, b=-31, c=238.

<em>Additional comment</em>
You will find that the solutions to this are x = {14, 17}. You will also find that angle BCE will have corresponding values of 54° and -15°. That is, the solution x=17 is "extraneous." It is a solution to the equation, but not to the problem.
For x=14, the marked angles are A = 84°, C = 54°.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.
× 
+ 
×
Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes
The two fractions now have like denominators so you can add the numerators.
This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 14 and 12 using
GCF(14,12) = 2
14÷2 / 12÷2 =7/6
The fraction
7/6
is the same as
7÷6
Convert to a mixed number using
long division for 7 ÷ 6 = 1R1, so
7/6=
Therefore:
3/4 − (−5/12) =
Solution by Formulas
Apply the fractions formula for subtraction, to
3/4 − (−5/12)
and solve
(3×12) − (−5×4) 4×12
=3/6− (−20/48)
=56/48
Reduce by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor GCF( 56,48) = 8
56÷8 / 48÷8 =7/6
Convert to a mixed number using
long division for 7 ÷ 6 = 1R1, so
7/6=
Therefore:
3/4 − (-5/12) =

If you're working with complex numbers, then I'm sure you're comfortable with plotting them on a complex-plane ... real part of the number along the x-axis, and imaginary part of the number along the y-axis.
When you look at it that way, your two points are simply two points on the x-y plane:
4 - i ===> (4, -1)
-2 + 3i ===> (-2, 3) .
The distance between them is
D = √ (difference in 'x')² + (difference in 'y')²
= √ (6)² + (4)²
= √ (36 + 16)
= √ (52)
= 7.211 (rounded)
Answer:
Canadians typically use a mix of metric and imperial measurements in their daily lives. Although Canadian driver's licences give height in centimetres, many Canadians also use imperial units to indicate height and weight.
