Mathematics
1 answer:
Anestetic [448]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2(x - 2) - 4x - 5 = 29 \\  \therefore \:  - 2x + 4 - 4x - 5 = 29 \\ \therefore \:   - 2x - 4x + 4 - 5 = 29 \\ \therefore \:    - 6x - 1 = 29 \\ \therefore \:    - 6x = 29 + 1 \\ \therefore \:    - 6x = 30 \\ \therefore \:   x =  \frac{30}{ - 6}  \\ \huge \red { \boxed{ \therefore \:   x =  - 5}}

On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point A to point B. Point A is at (7, negative 2) and point B is at (negative 8, neg
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

(1.2. - 4.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point A to point B. Point A is at (7,-2) and point B is at (-8,-9).

Now, it is asked the x- and y-coordinates of point C, which partitions the directed line segment from A to B into the ratio 5:8.

So, the coordinates of point C are

[\frac{5 \times (- 8) + 8 \times 7}{5 + 8}, \frac{5 \times (- 9) + 8 \times (- 2)}{5 + 8}]

= [\frac{16}{13}, \frac{-61}{13}]

= (1.2. - 4.7) (Answer)

Determine the volume and the total surface area of the square pyramid.if its perpendicular height is 12cm and square length is 5
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

Volume = 100 cm³

​Surface area of the square pyramid = 145 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Perpendicular height = 12cm

Square length = 5cm

Find:

Volume

​Surface area of the square pyramid

Computation:

Area of base = side²

Area of base = 5²

Area of base = 25 cm²

Volume = (1/3)(A)(h)

Volume = (1/3)(25)(12)

Volume = 100 cm³

​Surface area of the square pyramid = A + 1/2(P)(h)

Perimeter square pyramid = 4(s)

Perimeter square pyramid = 4(5)

Perimeter square pyramid = 20 cm

​Surface area of the square pyramid = 25 + 1/2(20)(12)

​Surface area of the square pyramid = 145 cm²

1/2(2+a)=3a+4/3 solve it
Mumz [18]
1/2(2+a)=3a+4/3

first, you use the distributive property<span>

</span>then your problem changes to...

1 + 1/2a = 3a + 4/3

then you subtract 1/2a with 3a

1  = 2 1/2a +4/3
<span>
now you subtract 1 with 4/3
</span>
-1/3 = 2 1/2a

now you divide -1/3 with 2 1/2a 

-2/15 = a

A = -2/15 is your answer. Hope this helps :)
