Given that D is the mid point of CE ,


So D will bisect CE, it means the length of DE and CD is equal.


=> DE + CD = CE



As DE and CD are equal,



=> DE + DE = CE

=> 2 DE = CE



Putting values from the question,


=> 2( 7x - 1 ) = 10x + 18

=> 14x - 2 = 10x + 18

=> 14x - 10x = 18 + 2

=> 4x = 20

=> x = 20 / 4

=> x = 10 / 2

=> x = 5

.





Therefore, the value of x is 5

X = 5 which gives you your answer. Sorry for no work I'm not sure how to do it.

How many solutions does the equation y=mx have
kherson [118]

Answer:A solution to an equation is the value or values of the variable or variables that make the equation a true statement. Graphically, solutions are the intersections of the graphs of the left side and the right side, or if the equation is written so that one side is zero, we are looking for the x-intercepts (for real solutions.)

Periodic functions can have infinite solutions. For instance, cos(x)=1 has as solutions x=2n*pi, n in ZZ (or n an integer.) Periodic functions can...

The container that holds the water for the football team is 4/9 full. After pouring in 4
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: 18 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the total gallons that the container can hold <em>x.</em>

<em> </em>Then, based on the information given in the problem, you can write the following expression:

\frac{4}{9}x+4=\frac{2}{3}x

Now, you must solve for x, as you can see below. Therefore, you obtain the following result:

\frac{4}{9}x+4=\frac{2}{3}x\\\\4=\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{4}{9}x\\\\4=\frac{2}{9}x\\\\4*9=2x\\\\36=2x\\\\x=18\ gallons

Gaveing out points for helpers!!​
Alekssandra [29.7K]
Because the two angles add up to equal 90, you would make an equation set to equal 90. On the other end you add the measures of your angles together because they are adding up to equal 90. This would look like 2x+5+35=90 and you solve from here. Add like terms making it 2x+40=90 then you subtract 40 from both sides making it 2x=50 and then divide by 2 on both sides which leaves you with x=25.
