x = 10

since GI bisects ∠DGH then ∠DGI = ∠IGH, hence

2x - 13 = x - 3 ( subtract x from both sides )

x - 13 = - 3 ( add 13 to both sides )

x = 10

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that bisect in math means that something is cut in exactly two halfs, this means that both resultant segments will be equal so we can equalize them into an equation:

DGI=IGH

x-3=2x-13

No we just clear X to solve the equation:

2x-x=-3+13

x=10

So the value of X will be 10

Here are two expressions whose product is a new expression, :

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

1. Fill in the box with 1

2. Fill in the box with -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression:

$(-2x^3 + [\ ]x)(x^{[\ ]}+1.5) = A$

Solving (1): Fill in the box to make it a polynomial.

To make it a polynomial, we simply fill in the box with a positive integer (say 1)

Fill in the box with 1

$(-2x^3 + [1]x)(x^{[1]}+1.5) = A$

Remove the square brackets

$(-2x^3 + x)(x^1+1.5) = A$

$(-2x^3 + x)(x+1.5) = A$

Open bracket

$-2x^4 - 3x^3 + x^2 + 1.5x = A$

Reorder

$A = -2x^4 - 3x^3 + x^2 + 1.5x$

The above expression is a polynomial.

This will work for any positive integer filled in the box

Solving (2): Fill in the box to make it not a polynomial.

The powers of a polynomial are greater than or equal to 0.

So, when the boxes are filled with a negative integer (say -2), the expression will cease to be a polynomial

Fill in the box with -2

$(-2x^3 + [-2]x)(x^{[-2]}+1.5) = A$

Remove the square brackets

$(-2x^3 - 2x)(x^{-2}+1.5) = A$

Reorder

$A = (-2x^3 - 2x)(x^{-2}+1.5)$

Open brackets

$A = -2x-3x^3-2x^{-1}-3x$

Collect Like Terms

$A = -3x^3-2x-3x-2x^{-1}$

$A = -3x^3-5x-2x^{-1}$

Notice that the least power of x is -1.

Hence, this is not a polynomial.

If tge angle at the center is 62° and the radius is 12 cm.. find the length of arc

insens350 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

r = 12 cm

Theta = 62

Length of arc = $\frac{theta}{360}*(2\pi r)$

$=\frac{62}{360}*2*3.14*12$

= 12.98 cm
