Use the given figure at right and calculate the value of x

Hi there!

To figure out the value of x, we can use a proportion. Here's the proportion we'd use: 15/7 + x = 9/x. Next, we'll need to cross-multiply in order to get an equation that we are able to solve: 9(7 + x) = 15x. Then, we'll distribute the terms: 63 + 9x = 15x. Lastly, we'll subtract 9x from each side and divide to find the value of x: 6x = 63 | x = 10.5.

Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!

dusya [7]

Answer:

The number 312 lies between the perfect cubes 216 and 343.

So the cube root of 312 lies between the number 6 and 7.

This means that the cube root of 312 is an irrational number because it is not a perfect cube root.

1. Write the following in exponential form and as a multiplication sentence using only 10 as a factor
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

1. a. 1,000 = 10³ = 10 × 10 × 10

b. 100 × 100 = 10² × 10² = 10 × 10 × 10 × 10

2. a. 3 × 10² = 300

b. 2.16 × 10⁴ = 21,600

c. 800 ÷ 10³ = 0.8

d. 754.2 ÷ 10² = 7.542

Step-by-step explanation:

3. a. 1,000

There are 3 zeros in 1000. This is equivalent to 10 raised to the power of 3. Writing this in multiplication sentence using 19 as the only factor, we would have:

1,000 = 10³ = 10 × 10 × 10

b. 100 × 100

Using the same logic as explained in (a) above, we would have:

100 × 100 = 10² × 10² = 10 × 10 × 10 × 10

2. a. 3 × 10²

Convert 10² to 100 and multiply both numbers

3 × 10² = 3 × 10 × 10 = 3 × 100 = 300

b. 2.16 × 10⁴

2.16 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 2.16 × 10,000

Multiplying both numbers, since we have 4 zeros, move the decimal point 4 places to the right.

2.16 × 10,000 = 21,600

c. 800 ÷ 10³ = 800 ÷ 10 × 10 × 10

800 ÷ 1,000

There are 3 zeros in 1000, since we are dividing, move the decimal point 3 places to the left.

800 ÷ 1,000 = 0.8

d. 754.2 ÷ 10² = 754.2 ÷ 10 × 10

754.2 ÷ 100

Move the decimal point 2 places to the left.

754.2 ÷ 100 = 7.542

Wo numbers are in the ratio of 2 to 3. If the smaller number is 18, the larger number is
Zarrin [17]
The simplified ratio is 2:3. Since the smaller number when it's not simplified is 18, let's divide 18 by 2 to get our factor.
18/2 = 9.
So we can multiply 9 by 3 to get the missing larger number.
9 x 3 = 27.
Your missing number is 27, hope this helps!
