Answer

-1,11

step by step

when x =11

3|x-5|=20

3|11-5|+2=20

3|6|+2=20

18+2=20

20=20

when x=-1

3|-1-5|+2=20

3|-6|+2=20(the -6 became 6 due to | | sign)

3*6+2=20

18+2=20

20=20

Line segment YV of rectangle YVWX measures 24 units.

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer: $YX=13.85\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The complete exercise is: "Line segment YV of rectangle YVWX measures 24 units. What is the length of line segment YX?"</h3><h3> The missing figure is attached.</h3>

Since the figure is a rectangle, you know that:

$WV=YX\\\\YV=XW=24$

Notice that the segment YV divides the rectangle into two equal Right triangles.

Knowing the above, you can use the following Trigonometric Identity:

$tan\alpha =\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

You can identify that:

$\alpha =30\°\\\\opposite=YX\\\\adjacent=YV=24$

Therefore, in order to find the length of the segment YX, you must substitute values into $tan\alpha =\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ and then you must solve for YX.

You get that this is:

$tan(30\°)=\frac{YX}{24}\\\\(24)(tan(30\°))=YX\\\\YX=13.85$
