X+x+1+x+2=51
3x+3=51
Use inverse operations to solve
subtract 3 from both sides
3x=48
Divide by 3 on both sides
x=16
16, 17, 18
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
<D and <A are vertical angles.
Vertical angles are congruent.
Congruent means the same or equal.
Answer:
The length of the line segment AC is equal to 14
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle above is an isosceles triangle, In an Isosceles triangle the two angles; B and C are the same, hence the two sides; AB and AC are also the same.
AB=2x and AC= 3x - 7
AB = AC
which implies;
2x = 3x - 7
subtract 3x from both-side of the equation
2x - 3x = 3x -3x -7
-x = -7
Multiply through by -1
x = 7
But we were ask to find the the length of the line segment AC
AC = 3x - 7
substituting x = 7 into the above equation will yield;
AC = 3(7) - 7 = 21 - 7 =14
Therefore the length of the line segment AC is equal to 14
Answer:
37.59 nautical miles
Explanation:
Distance = Speed x Time
The speed of the first ship = 12 knots
Thus, the distance covered after 1.5 hours
The speed of the second ship = 22 knots
Thus, the distance covered after 1.5 hours
The diagram representing the ship's path is drawn and attached below:
The angle at port = 90 degrees.
The triangle is a right triangle.
Using Pythagorean Theorem:
![\begin{gathered} c^2=a^2+b^2 \\ c^2=18^2+33^2 \\ c^2=324+1089 \\ c^2=1413 \\ c=\sqrt[]{1413} \\ c=37.59\text{ miles} \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20c%5E2%3Da%5E2%2Bb%5E2%20%5C%5C%20c%5E2%3D18%5E2%2B33%5E2%20%5C%5C%20c%5E2%3D324%2B1089%20%5C%5C%20c%5E2%3D1413%20%5C%5C%20c%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B1413%7D%20%5C%5C%20c%3D37.59%5Ctext%7B%20miles%7D%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
The two ships are 37.59 nautical miles apart after 1.5 hours.
Answer:
Definitely 3/4!
Step-by-step explanation:
Option A = 7.5
Option B = 66.6%
Option C = 75% (because 25 times 4 is equal to 100%, so 25 times 3 would be 75)
Option D = 6/10 or 60%
