Answer:

let's see what to do...

Step-by-step explanation:

H is between G and I.

G I = G H + H I

38 = 8 x + 7 + 3x - 2

38 = 11 x + 5

subtract the sides of equation minus 5

38 - 5 = 11 x + 5 - 5

33 = 11 x

divided the sides of equation by 11

33 ÷ 11 = 11 x ÷ 11

3 = x

So the lenght of (G H) is :

8 x + 7 -----¢ 8 (3) + 7 = 24 + 7 = 31

And we're done.

Thanks for watching buddy good luck.

8x = 2y + 5 3x = y + 7 Solve the system of equations by substitution.

jasenka [17]

3x = y + 7
 y =3x-7

8x = 2y + 5
8x = 2(3x-7) + 5
8x=6x-14+5
8x-6x=-9
2x=-9
x=-4.5

8x = 2y + 5
8(4.5)=2y+5
36=2y+5
2y=31
y=15.5

You roll a 6-sided die with faces numbered 1 through 6, and toss a coin. What is the probability of rolling a 2 or getting heads

tino4ka555 [31]

P(2 or H) = P(2) + P(H) - P(2 and H)

What is the probability of getting a 2 P(2)? = 1/6

What is the probability of getting heads P(H)? = 1/2

P(2 and H) is the product of those two events since the events are independent. = 1/6 * 1/2 = 1/12

P(2 or H) = P(2) + P(H) - P(2 and H)

P(2 or H) = 1/6 + 1/2 - 1/12 = 7/12

Find the height of the triangle

Paul [167]

There are two -main- approaches to answer this problem. By using the sine identity, or applying law of sines.

We'll do the sine trig. identity, as it is the most effective.

Given an angle ' $\alpha$ ' in a right triangle, ' $sin( \alpha )$ ' is defined as the opposite side of the triangle to the given angle, over the triangle's hypotenuse.

So, for this setup:
$sin(20)= \frac{x}{10}$

Now, we solve for x:
$x=10sin(20)=3.42$

So, answer is 3.4
