Answer:
(2)/(3) =( 4)/( 3+x)
Cross multiply
2*(3+x)= 4*3
Solve bracket
6+2x=12
Subtract 6 from both sides
2x=6
Divide both sides by 2
x=3
Hope it helps :-)
Answer:
3. The missing angle is 56°
4. x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
3.
We know sum of 3 angles in a triangle is 180°.
Looking at the top triangle, we can figure out the third angle. Let third angle be x:
85 + 35 + x = 180
120 + x = 180
x = 180 - 120
x = 60
<u>The angle "x" and the angle that is missing from the "bottom" triangle in the figure, are vertical angles, and hence, are EQUAL.</u>
So the bottom triangle now has 2 angles, 60 and 64 (given). Let the third angle be y(the one with a question mark). So we can write:
60 + 64 + y = 180
124 + y = 180
y = 180 - 124
y= 56
This is the missing angle.
4.
10x - 5 AND 8x + 9 are vertical angles. They ARE EQUAL.
Thus we can write the equation:
(10x-5) = (8x+9)
10x-8x=9+5
2x=14
x=14/2
x=7
So x = 7
From information given, we know
208 miles was at rate of 65 mph. so divide total mileage by speed to get time spent.
208 ÷ 65 = 3.2 hours
So the rest of the trip took 6 - 3.2 = 2.8hours to travel another 348 total miles minus the 208 miles driven at 65mph is 140 miles.
140 miles divided by 2.8 hours gives speed
140 ÷ 2.8 = 50 miles per hour
