A. X = 2
what you do is divide each side by the coefficient of x (3.2) to get rid of it on the left, and simplify the right: 2.
Answer: Option C. They're not similar because only one pair of corresponding angles in the two triangles is congruent.
Solution:
The only one pair of corresponding angles in the two triangles is congruent is the angle BGC in ΔCBG and the angle FGE in ΔFEG, because they are vertical angles (opposite by the vertex)
Answer: Area = 6m²
Smaller number = 16
Hours = 9.6 h
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the area remains the same. Find the area of the rectangle.
1) w = x m 2) w = x + 1 m
l = x + 5 m l = x + 5 - 2 = x + 3 m
A₁ = A₂
A = w*l
A₁ = x(x+5) = x² + 5x
A₂ = (x+1)(x+2) = x² + x + 2x + 2 = x² + 3x + 2
A₁ = A₂
x² + 5x = x² + 3x + 2
5x - 3x = 2
2x = 2
x = 1
A₁ = x(x+5) = 1.6 = 6 m²
The ratio of two numbers is 2:5. If the larger number is 40, what is the smaller number.
<u> 2 </u> = <u> x </u>
5 40
5x = 80
x = 80/5 = 16
Sixteen construction workers can finish cementing a floor of a building in 3 hours. On a certain day, only 5 construction workers are available for the job. How long will it take the 5 construction workers to do the cementing job?
workers hours
16 3
5 x
↑ ↓ inversely proportional
<u> 5 </u> = <u> 3 </u>
16 x
5x = 16*3
5x = 48
x = 48/5
x = 9.6 h
Answer:
8x^3-7x^2-11x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
(8x^3-5x-1)-(7x^2+6x-10)
remove unnesasary ( )
8x^3-5x-1 -(7x^2+6x-10)
the distribute
8x^3-5x-1 -7x^2-6x+10
combine like terms
8x^3-11x+9-7x^2
use the communative property to reorder the equation
8x^3-7x^2-11x+9
Answer:
We have been given that a car can travel 476 miles on 14 gallons of gas and we are asked to write an equation relating the distance d to the number of gallons g.
We can set an equation as distance traveled is directly proportional to number of gallons used in travelling that distance.
Now we will find out K(number of miles traveled in one gallon of gas) by substituting our given values in this equation.
Therefore, we can see that car travels 34 miles in one gallon of gas.
Now we can use this information to find out how many gallons of gas does this car need to travel 578 miles.
Let us divide number of miles to be traveled by number of miles traveled in one gallon of gas to find out number of gallons of gas needed.
Therefore, car need 17 gallons of gas to travel 578 miles.
