Answer: 21
Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, we can first set up a proportion because we know that 3 is to 7 as 9 is to x.
So we have
.
Now, we can use cross products to find the missing value.
So we have 3 time x which is 3x and 7 times 9 which is 63.
Rewriting our equation, we have 3x = 63.
Dividing both sides by 3, we find that <em>x = 21</em>.
So, <em>x = 21</em>.
The red arrows in the middle mean that they are parallel so the slopes are the same.
The answer can be found by subtract the volume of the small box from the volume of big box.
Volume of the small box:
12*8*4= 384 inches cube
Volume of the big box:
20*15*9= 2700 inches cube
The space left:
2700 - 384 = 2316 inches cube
Answer:
The slop of the line is 15.
Step-by-step explanation:
(6-3)/(0.4-0.2)=15
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y + 2= -1/2(x - 0)
y + 2 = -1/2x + 0
y = -1/2x - 2
-1/2x = -2
x = 4
Answer:
x = 2.5 inches. Or
x = 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Length: 7 + 2x
Width: 5 + 2x
Note that you have to add x at each end of the picture and onto each part of the width.
The entire area is 120 square inches.
Formula
L*W = Area
(2x + 7)(2x + 5) = 120
Solution
4x^2 + 10x + 14x + 35 = 120 Subtract 120 from both sides. Add xs
4x^2 + 24x + 35 - 120 = 0
4x^2 + 24x - 85 = 0 Factor
(2x + 17)(2x - 5)
2x + 17 has no meaning. It will give - 8.5 which is not possible.
2x - 5 =0
2x = 5 Divide by 2
x = 5/2
x = 2.5
