Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
cross multiply
5(x+3)=3(x+7)
5x+15=3x+21
5x+15-3x=3x+21-3x
2x+15=21
2x+15-15=21-15
2x=6
x=3
Answer:
First shape: 366 in^2
Second shape: 376 in^2
Pretty sure these are correct, hope this helps!
The answer would be 11 gallons.
The tub starts with 32 gallons. Every minute it loses 3 gallons.
So after 1 minute it has lost 3 gallons. For example:
32-3= 29 Meaning that after 1 minute the tub has 29 gallons left.
Now you have to remember that the tub is draining for 7 minutes. So it is losing 3 gallons 7 times, because it loses 3 gallons each minute and there are 7 minutes.
We can use multiplication to find how many gallons the tub loses after 7 minutes. This sign “X” basically means “groups of”. We have 7 groups of 3, or
7 X 3
This is the same as saying we have 3, 7 times. Written like this:
3+3 +3 +3 +3 +3 +3 = 21
So after 7 minutes the tub has lost 21 gallons.
Now we take the original number of gallons and take away what was lost:
32-21=11
So there are 11 gallons left after 7 minutes.
Please let me know if you need any further explanation. Hope this helped.
The graph is not proportional because it doesn’t go though the origin aka (0,0)
Complentary angles add to 90 degrees
a and b are complentary
a+b=90
a=7x+4
b=4x+9
so
7x+4+4x+9=90
combine like terms
11x+13=90
minus 13 both sides
11x=77
divide both sides by 11
x=7
m a =7x+4=7(7)+4=49+4=53
m b=4x+9=4(7)+9=28+9=37
angle a measures 53 degrees
angle b measures 37 degrees
