Answer:

x = -(8 - 3 y)/y

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

y = 8/(3 - x)

y = 8/(3 - x) is equivalent to 8/(3 - x) = y:

8/(3 - x) = y

Take the reciprocal of both sides:

(3 - x)/8 = 1/y

Multiply both sides by 8:

3 - x = 8/y

Subtract 3 from both sides:

-x = (8 - 3 y)/y

Multiply both sides by -1:

Answer: x = -(8 - 3 y)/y

$\huge\boxed{x=3-\frac{8}{y}}$

$y=\frac{8}{3-x}$

Multiply both sides of the equation by $(3-x)$ . $y(3-x)=8$

Divide both sides by $y$ . $3-x=\frac{8}{y}$

Subtract $3$ from both sides. $-x=\frac{8}{y}-3$

Multiply both sides by $-1$ , making everything opposite. $\boxed{x=3-\frac{8}{y}}$

What is the measure of A

Rainbow [258]

Given:

A figure of a triangle.

To find:

The measure of angle A.

Solution:

Label the points in the figure as shown below.

In the below figure,

$\angle ACB\cong \angle DCE$ (Vertically opposite angles)

$m\angle ACB=m\angle DCE$ (Congregant angles)

$m\angle ACB=8x+4$

Using exterior angle theorem in triangle ABC, we get

$m\angle A+m\angle C=\text{Exterior }m\angle B$

$m\angle BAC+m\angle ACB=130^\circ$

$(3x-6)+(8x+4)=130^\circ$

$11x-2=130^\circ$

Isolate the variable term x.

$11x=130^\circ+2$

$11x=132^\circ$

$x=\dfrac{132^\circ}{11}$

$x=12^\circ$

Now, the measure of angle A is:

$m\angle A=3x-6$

$m\angle A=3(12^\circ)-6$

$m\angle A=36^\circ-6$

$m\angle A=30^\circ$

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Shown below is a blueprint for a rectangular kennel at a pet hotel.

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

72 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we are looking for the perimeter of the kennel. The perimeter of a rectangle has the formula, $P=2l+2w$ , where <em>l</em> represents the length of the rectangle and <em>w</em> represents the width of the rectangle. We are given both the length and the width (or simply the two sides) of the rectangle, and all we need to do is plug it into the formula!

$P=2*22+2*14\\P=44+28\\P=72$

<u>Therefore, it would require 72 ft. of fencing to enclose the kennel.</u>
