When solving the equation such as 3/5x = 1/9 , why would you multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 3/5 ?

You would multiply each side of the equation by the reciprocal of 3/5 (5/3) because would cancel out 3/5 which would leave you with x and the answer.

Find the value of x that will make A||B<br> A-<br> 2x + 50<br> 5x - 80<br> B-<br> x = [?]
LenKa [72]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

If A||B then the sum of given angles must be equal to 180°

2x + 5 + 5x - 80 = 180 add like terms

7x - 75 = 180 subtract 75 from both sides

7x = 105 divide both sides by 7

x = 15

3/8 + 1/4 = Tap on the pic to see wiestion
Radda [10]

Answer:

3/8 + 1/4 is 5/8 and 1/10+4/5 is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

convert 1/4 to 2/8 and add to 3/8 to get 5/8

convert 4/5 to 9/10 and add to 1/10 equals 10/10 which is also 1

Find the difference between points M(6,16) and Z(-1,14) to the nearest tenth.
svlad2 [7]

I'm not sure what you mean by difference, so I am guessing you meant to write "distance". If this is not the case, then feel free to report me. Anyway, to find the distance between two points you would use the distance formula.

Distance Formula: d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}.

Let's substitute our point coordinates into the formula. We'll substitute -1 and 6 for x_2 and x_1, and 14 and 16 for y_2 and y_1. After substituting, your formula will now look like: d=\sqrt{(-1-6)^2+(14-16)^2}.

d=\sqrt{(-1-6)^2+(14-16)^2}

Subtract the coordinates.

d=\sqrt{(-7)^2+(-2)^2}

Square the subtracted coordinates.

d=\sqrt{49+4}

Add 49 and 4.

d=\sqrt{53}

Square root 53 and round the answer to the nearest tenth.

7.28 becomes 7.3.

7.3 units is the distance between points M and Z.

Pleaseeee helpppp answer correctly !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Will mark Brianliest !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fed [463]

Answer:

z=44

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to go about this with the given angles is to use the alternate interior angles theorem to find the full measure of ∠C and ∠A. Then, use the same theorem to set ∠BDA as 52°. Subtract all the angle measures from 360 (because the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is = 360 degrees). Then divide the result by 2.

360-84-84-52-52=88

=88/2

=44

So z=44°
