Find the value of x​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Eva8 [605]3 years ago
8 0

The larger right triangle with hypotenuse x + 5 and short leg x + 2 is similar to the smaller right triangle with hypotenuse x + 2 and short leg x.

Because of this similarity, we have

(x + 5)/(x + 2) = (x + 2)/x

Solve for x:

x(x + 5) = (x + 2)^2

x^2 + 5x = x^2 + 4x + 4

x = 4

LA DISTANCIA ENTRE LA TIERRA YLA LUNA ES DE 384 392 KM. LOS AUSTRONAUTAS DE LA APOLO XL SALIERON EL 16 DE JULIO DE 1969 DESDE EL
KengaRu [80]

Complete question :

la distancia entre la tierra y la luna es de 384 392 km. Los astronautas de la Apolo XL salieron el 16 de julio de 1969 desde el Centro Espacial Kennedy y al alcanzaron la orbita el 19 de julio de 1969. Suponiendo que cada dia recorrieron la misma cantidad de kilometros cuantos kilometros recorrieron por dia

Responder:

128130,66 kilometros

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado que:

Distancia entre la tierra y la luna = 384,392 km

Tiempo empleado = (19 de julio - 16 de julio) mismo año = 3 días

Velocidad = distancia / tiempo

El tiempo empleado es (3 * 24) = 72 horas

Por lo tanto,

velocidad = 384,392 / 72

= 5338,7777 kilómetros por hora

Dado que se supone que la distancia recorrida diariamente es la misma m:

El número de kilómetros recorridos por día:

5338,7777 kilómetros por hora * 24

= 128130,66 kilometros

Rectangular windows are being made into a wall of windows for an office building. Each wall is 14 feet tall and 12 feet wide. Th
Artemon [7]

Answer:

  168/(x² +7x)

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of each window is 14/(x+7), and the width of each window is 12/x. The area of each window is the product of its height ans width:

  area = (14/(x+7))(12/x) = 168/(x(x +7))

  area = 168/(x² +7x)

_____

<em>Comment on the problem</em>

There is not enough information given to determine suitable values for x. If x is 42, each window is a square 3 3/7 inches on a side.
