Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the following equations, we need to isolate the variable asked using inverse operations to solve equations.
Remember that addition and subtraction are inverse operations, as multiplication and division.
Therefore,
Since ΔABC ~ ΔEDC, ∠B = ∠D.
Since both triangles appear to be similar, the corresponding angles are the same, and corresponding sides are the same or have the same ratio.
We can write an equation to resemble the problem:
8x + 16 = 120
Solve for x.
8x + 16 = 120
~Subtract 16 to both sides
8x + 16 - 16 = 120 - 16
~Simplify
8x = 104
~Divide 8 to both sides
8x/8 = 104/8
~Simplify
x = 13
Therefore, the answer is 13.
Best of Luck!
:Jason is tossing a fair coin. He tosses the coin ten times and it lands on heads eight times. If Jason tosses the coin an eleventh time, what is the probability that it will land on heads?
Solution:
The probability would be ½. The result of the eleventh toss does not depend on the previous
results.
Okay first I think you might’ve highlighted incorrectly. You want to make sure the angles match with each other. Next you set up a proportion and solve. I’ll draw this all out for you. I hope this helps! :))
