I would set this up as a a proportion:
\frac{17cm}{5cm}  · \frac{272cm}{x} 
17x = 1360
x = 20 cm

The greater of two consecutive integers is seven less than one-third the smaller integer. Find the integers
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:consecutive integers are represented by x, x+1 ,  so for this problem the greater one is represented by x + 1.

Now you need to translate the problem.  the greater is  seven less than 1/3 the smaller

--->  x + 1 = (1/3)*x - 7 --->  now solve for x (the smaller) and x+1  (the greater)

***hint:  to get rid of fractions in an equation you can always multiply EVERYTHING by the denominator , 3 in this case

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!
EleoNora [17]
<span>Part 1:

(x+1)^2-3(x+2) \\  \\ =x^2+2x+1-3x-6 \\  \\ =x^2-x-5

option b.


Part 2:
(5x^3y^{-3})(-6x^4y)\\ \\=5(-6)x^{3+4}y^{-3+1}\\ \\=-30x^7y^{-2}\\ \\=\frac{-30x^7}{y^2}

option d


Part 3:
\frac{8+x}{2} - \frac{x+3}{3} =4

Multiply through by the LCM of 2 and 3 (i.e. 6)
6\left(\frac{8+x}{2}\right) - 6\left(\frac{x+3}{3}\right) =6(4) \\  \\ 3(8+x)-2(x+3)=24 \\  \\ 24+3x-2x-6=24 \\  \\ x+18=24 \\  \\ x=24-18=6

option b


Part 4
x^2-3x-8=x+4

x^2-3x-8=x+4 \\  \\ x^2-3x-x-8-4=0 \\  \\ x^2-4x-12=0 \\  \\ (x-6)(x+2)=0 \\  \\ x=6 \ or \ -2

option d


Part 5
Joseph is solving the equation x^2+8x-4=0 using the technique completing the square.
x^2+8x-4=0
x^2+8x+?=4+?

In completeing the square method, you divide the coeficient of x by 2, square the result and add to both sides of the equation.

Therefore, he should add 16 to both sides because (8/2)^2=16.

option d.

HELPPP!! <br> Triangle ABC is similar to triangle MOP. A = 45 and P = 102. What is the measure of B?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

       \large\boxed{\large\boxed{33\º}}

Explanation:

The order of the letters naming the triangles is relevant. When it is said that <em>triangle ABC is similar to triangle MOP</em>, means that:

  • ∡A ≅ ∡M
  • ∡B ≅ ∡O
  • ∡C ≅ ∡P

Therefore:

  • ∡A = 45º (given)
  • ∡P = 102º (given)
  • ∡C = 102º (by substitution)

Now, you have two angles of triangle ABC and can find the third one:

  • ∡A + ∡B + ∡C = 180º
  • ∡B = 180º - ∡A - ∡B
  • ∡B = 180º - 45º - 102º = 33º ← answer
