Paul [167]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the amount of years x. We can write

42 + x = 3(8 + x)

42 + x = 24 + 3x

2x = 18

x = 9

Simplify (3x − 5) − (4x + 6).
irinina [24]

(3x − 5) − (4x + 6)

Pretend that there is a 1 in front of the first bracket.

Pretend that there is a -1 in front of the second bracket.

Multiply the first bracket by 1

(1)(3x)=3x, (1)(-5)=-5

Multiply the second bracket by -1

(-1)(4)=-4, (-1)(6)=-6

3x-5-4x-6

3x-4x-5-6 ( combine like terms)

-x-11

Answer: -x-11 or -11-x

Which of the following theorems verified that angle xyz is congruent too angle uwv?
icang [17]

Answer:

Option B.  AA

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Angle-Angle (AA) Similarity Postulate, states that If two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another, then the triangles must be similar

In this problem

<em>In the triangle XYZ</em>

∠X=70°

∠Y=90°

∠Z=90°-70°=20° (remember that angle X and angle Z are complementary)

<em>In the triangle UWV</em>

∠V=20°

∠W=90°

∠U=90°-20°=70° (remember that angle V and angle U are complementary)

therefore

Traingles XYZ and UWV are similar by AA Similarity Postulate

write an equation that could be used to find two consecutive even integers whose product is 24. Let x represent the first intege
mariarad [96]
(X)+(X+1)=24

"consecutive" means right after the other, so, if the first one is (X), the second integer <u>must be</u> (X+1). The answer 24 is given so you just have to solve the equation.

2X+1=24
2X=23
X=11.5
