Answer:

x = 17/2

Step-by-step explanation:

x-3 x+8

------ = ------------

2 6

Using cross products

(x-3) *6 = 2 (x+8)

Distribute

6x - 18 = 2x+16

Subtract 2x from each side

6x-2x-18 = 2x-2x+16

4x-18 = 16

Add 18 to each side

4x-18+18 = 16+18

4x = 34

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 = 34/4

x = 17/2

If m ABC = 118°, solve for x.

ziro4ka [17]

Given:

m∠ABC = 118°

m∠DAC = (9x - 33)°

m∠CAB = (2x + 7)°

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

Sum of the adjacent angles in a parallelogram = 180°

m∠ABC + m∠CAB + m∠DAC = 180°

118° + 9x° - 33° + 2x° + 7° = 180°

92° + 11x° = 180°

Subtract 92° from both sides.

92° + 11x° - 92° = 180° - 92°

11x° = 88°

Divide by 11° on both sides.

x = 8

The value of x is 8.

the table describes some of the solutions of the inequality 3m>21. Which graph best describes the solutions of 3m>21?

Travka [436]

Answer:

Option 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given inequality is,

$3m\geq 21$

To find the solutions of the given inequality solve this inequality first.

$\frac{3m}{3}\geq \frac{21}{3}$

$m\geq 7$

This inequality will be represented by an arrow starting from 7 and directing towards infinity.

Since, inequality is having a sign notation of greater than equal to, arrow will start with a dark circle located at 7.

Therefore, Option 3 (from the top) will be the answer.
