Answer:x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

This triangle is an equilateral triangle with all angles equal.

Sum of angles in a triangle=180

17x-8+17x-8+17x-8=180

Collect like terms

17x+17x+17x-8-8-8=180

51x-24=180

51x=180+24

51x=204

Divide both sides by 51

51x/51=204/51

x=4

Answer – True

To begin an indirect proof, you assume the inverse of what you intend to prove is true. An indirect proof takes the conclusion from a hypothesis and assumes that the inverse is true until a contradiction is reached, thus showing that if the inverse is true there would be a contradiction. In other words, indirect proof demonstrates that something else apart from the given statement (usually algebraic or geometric) would not make sense.

X^2-x+2=0 Please use the quadratic formula

Ainat [17]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf x=\cfrac{1\pm \sqrt{-7} }{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf x^2-x+2=0$

Use quadratic formula:

$\boxed{\sf \frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}}$

$\sf a=1, b=-1, c=2$

___________________________

$\sf x_1,_2=\cfrac{-\left(-1\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-1\right)^2-4\times \:1\times \:2}}{2\times \:1}$

$\sf \sqrt{\left(-1\right)^2-4\times \:1\times \:2}$

$\sf =\sqrt{-7}$

_________________

$\sf x_1,_2\cfrac{-\left(-1\right)\pm \sqrt{-7}}{2\times \:1}$

$\sf -(-1)=1$

$2\times 1=2$

$\sf x_1,_2=\cfrac{1\pm \sqrt{-7} }{2}$

When you write a numerical expression how can you show which operation to do it first?

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

parentheses come first

Step-by-step explanation:

Parentheses are symbols that group things together. This becomes very important in numerical expressions, because operations inside parentheses are always completed first when evaluating the expression. Let's review the order of operations. You can see that, according to the order of operations, parentheses come first.

To be considered as a menu item for Gloria's new restaurant an item must have scored in the top 15% by the food critics in the a

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Lowest score needed=4.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the standard normal distribution table we find the value of standard normal deviate corresponding to area of 15%

For area of 15% we have Z= -1.04

Thus we have

$Z=\frac{X-\overline{X}}{\sigma }\\\\\therefore X=\sigma Z+\overline{X}\\\\$

Applying values we get

$X=-1.04\times 2+7\\\\X=4.92$

Thus lowest score needed = 4.92
