2x+12= 8+24
2x+12= 32 subtract 12 from both sides
2x+12-12= 32-12
2x=20 divide both sides by 2
x=10

-2, because when you subtract 12 from both sides you get -4 and then you would divide that by 2 which then gives you -2:)

Mr. Cresta spends $6.00 for every $3.00 he saves. Write a ratio equivalent to Mr. Cresta's spending
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

12:6 or $12 for every $6 he saves

Step-by-step explanation:

If he spends $6.00 for every $3.00, he would save $6 if he spends $12. In this case you could multiple or divide 6 by any number, and do the same to 3 to get an equivalent ratio. Ex. Multiple 6 times 2 to get $12 and 3 times 2 to get $6.

AC=CE and D is the midpoint of CE. If CE = 10x+18 DE = 7x-1 and BC = 9x-3 find AB
Mazyrski [523]

We know the CE = 10x + 18 and DE = 7x - 1 and D is the midpoint of CE

⇒ CE = 2 * DE

⇒ 10x + 18 = 2 * (7x - 1)

⇒ 10x + 18 = 14x - 2

⇒ -4x = -20

⇒ x = 5

Now we also know that BC = 9x - 3 and AC = CE = 10x + 18

⇒ AB = AC - BC

⇒ AB = 10x + 18 - (9x - 3)

⇒ AB = x + 21

Substituting the value of x,

⇒ AB = 5 + 21

⇒ AB = 26

Hence, the value of AB is 26 units.

The Hypotenuse Angle Theorem, similar to the HL Theorem, states that if the hypotenuse and one angle of a right triangle are con
Maru [420]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to proof the HA theorem, we consider two triangles  and   which are right angle triangles. The right angle lies at points  and   respectively.

We also consider that the hypotenuse are congruent meaning  and  .

Now we have taken that angle  and  .

Since  and  are 90 degrees, so angle B would be congruent to angle E i.e  

Hence by Angle, side and angle congruence in both triangles we can write as,  .

And this is what the HA thoerem states also
