Answer:

26=x

Step-by-step explanation:

well you need to do the distributive property.

-3(x-2) = -6x+6

9(x+8) = 9x+72

-6x+6=9x+72

now you subtract -6x from -6x and 9x

and add 72 to 6

-6x   +6  =9x +   72

-6x + 72  -6x     -72

78=3x

divide them both by 3

26=x

Help, I don't remember​
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

  x = 144

Step-by-step explanation:

What you need to remember about this geometry is that all of the triangles are similar. As with any similar triangles, that means ratios of corresponding sides are proportional. Here, we can write the ratios of the long leg to the short leg and set them equal to find x.

  x/60 = 60/25

Multiply by 60 to find x:

  x = (60·60)/25

  x = 144

_____

<em>Comment on this geometry</em>

You may have noticed that the above equation can be written in the form ...

  60 = √(25x)

That is, the altitude from the hypotenuse (60) is equal to the geometric mean of the lengths into which it divides the hypotenuse (25 and x).

This same sort of "geometric mean" relation holds for other parts of this geometry, as well. The short leg of the largest triangle (the hypotenuse of the one with legs 25 and 60) is the geometric mean of the short hypotenuse segment (25) and the total hypotenuse (25+x).

And, the long leg of the large triangle (the hypotenuse of the one with legs 60 and x) is the geometric mean of the long hypotenuse segment (x) and the total hypotenuse (25+x).

While it can be a shortcut in some problems to remember these geometric mean relationships, you can always come up with what you need by simply remembering that the triangles are all similar.

mylen [45]

Answer:

236,859 people visited the water park the year it opened.

Step-by-step explanation:

426,731 - 102,865= 323,866 the amount of people that visited last year

323,866 - 87,007 = 236,859 the amount of people that visited the water park the year it opened

A square field has an area of 100 square meters. What is the length of the square? Show how you got the work please.
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The length of the square is 10 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to know that a square has four equal sides, and that finding the area of a square means multiplying one side by another side. This means that if you know the area of the square, all you have to do is find the square root of the area to find a side length. So, by using a calculator, you can find that the square root of 100 is 10, which is the length of one side of the square.
