Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, you need to use the Thales theorem.

You can actually apply this theorem and choose two sides of the figure to do it.

In this case, I will choose segment LM and MN and look for a ratio with DE and EF like this:

LM/MN = DE/EF

This theorem states that you can stablish a ratio between two segments assuming that you have at least two paralels lines, like DL || EM || FN

Therefore, it's time to replace the values of those segments and solve for X:

LM/MN = DE/EF

14/16 = 6x -9 / 4x + 4

7/8 = 6x - 9 / 4x + 4

7(4x+4) = 8(6x-9)

28x + 28 = 48x - 72

72 + 28 = 48x - 28x

100 = 20x

x = 100/20

x = 5

If f(x)= 3x-1 and g(x)=2x-3, for which value of x does g(x)= f(2)
gregori [183]

Answer:

g(4)=f(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(2)=3(2)-1

f(2)=6-1

f(2)=5


We then get:

g(x)=f(2)

subsitute 5 for f(2)

g(x)=5

now solve

5=2x-3

add 3

8=2x

divide 2

4=x

so the answer is x=4 or  

g(4)=f(2)

The following equation f(x) = x³ + 0.5x² + 4.5 has only 1 real root. It lies between the interval [-1,0].
melisa1 [442]
We are asked in this problem to find the real root of the polynomial f(x) = x3 + 0.5x2 + 4.5. in this case, to find the root of the equation, we equate the equation to zero. 
<span>f(x) = x³ + 0.5x² + 4.5 = 0 
        2x3 + x^2 + 9 = 0
</span><span>x1=−1.83557
</span>x2=0.66779+1.41619∗i
x3=0.66779−1.41619∗i

answer is -1.84
