Data:

<span>segment AU = 20x + 108,
segment UB = 273,
segment BC = 703,
segment UV = 444,
segment AV = 372 and
segment AC = 589.

From the figure:

1) Similarity => segment AB / segment BC = segment AU / segment UV

2) segment AB = segment AU + segment UB = 20x + 108 + 273 = 20x + 381

=> (20x + 381) / 703 = (20x + 108) / 444

=> 444 (20x + 381) = 703 (20x + 108)

=> 8880x + 169164 = 14060x + 75924

=> 14060x - 8880x = 169164 - 75924

=> 5180 x = 93240

=> x = 93240 / 5180

=> x = 18

Answer: x = 18

Answer:

Tooth A

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the larger tooth has to be displayed, knowing that no matter how many zeros you add to the end of a decimal, the value of it will stay the same. 0.23 is 1 digit short that 0.195, so if you just add a 0 to 0.23, it make both of them have a digit in the thousandths place. Now it's easier to solve, 0.230>0.195.

Tooth A should be displayed.

Cscx/secx = cotx<br><br> Verify with steps please :)
Dovator [93]
Csc(x) = 1/sin(x)
sec(x) = 1/cos(x)
cot(x) = [1/sin(x)] / [1/cos(x)] 
cot(x) = 1/sin(x) * cos(x)/1
cot(x) = cos(x) / sin(x)
cot(x) = cot(x)
