Answer:

x-10=6x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, Is means equals. I used x as the unknown number. 10 less than a number means x-10. Squishing a variable and constant ( x and 6) together means multiplication (Constant always going before the variable) It's three more than six times the number, so it's six times the number plus three.

Hope I helped :)

Consider the proof. Given: In △ABC, BD ⊥ AC Prove: the formula for the law of cosines, a2 = b2 + c2 – 2bccos(A) Statement Reason

loris [4]

Solution: The missing reason in Step 8 is substitution of $x=c\cos (A)$ .

Explanation:

The given steps are used to prove the formula for law of cosines.

From step 5 it is noticed that our equation is

$a^2=b^2-2bx+c^2$ ..... (1)

From step 7 it is noticed that the value of $x$ is $c\cos (A)$ .

So by substituting $c\cos (A)$ for $x$ in equation (1) we get the equation of step 8, i.e.,

$a^2=b^2-2bc\cos (A)+c^2$

Hence, the missing reason in Step 8 is substitution of $x=c\cos (A)$ .

Alyssa scored x goals during the soccer game yesterday. Today she scored 3 times as many goals. She scored a total of 4 goals du

damaskus [11]

Answer:

Alyssa had scored 3 goals today.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of goals scored yesterday = $x$

Total number of goals scored in 2 games = 4

We need to find the number of goals scored today.

Solution:

Now Given:

Today she scored 3 times as many goals than yesterday.

So we can say that;

Number of goals scored today = $3x$

Now we know that;

Total number of goals scored in 2 games is the sum of Number of goals scored yesterday and Number of goals scored today.

framing in equation form we get;

$x+3x=4\\\\4x=4$

Dividing both side by 4 we get;

$\frac{4x}{4} =\frac{4}{4}\\\\x=1$

Number of goals scored yesterday = 1

Number of goals scored today = $3x = 3\times1 =3$

Hence Alyssa had scored 3 goals today.

Given: mAngleEDF = 120°; mAngleADB = (3x)°; mAngleBDC = (2x)° Prove: x = 24 3 lines are shown. A line with points E, D, C inters

N76 [4]

Answer:

" Vertical angles are congruent " ⇒ 2nd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* <em>Look to the attached figure </em>

- There are three lines intersected at point D

- We need to find the missing in step 3

∵ Line FA intersects line EC at point D

- The angles formed when two lines cross each other are called

vertical angles

- Vertical angles are congruent (vertical angles theorem)

∴ ∠ADC and ∠FDE are vertical angles

∵ Vertical angles are congruent

∴ ∠EDF ≅ ∠ADC

∴ m∠EDF ≅ m∠ADC

∵ m∠EDF = 120° ⇒ given

∵ m∠ADC = m∠ADB + m∠BDC

∴ m∠ADB + m∠BDC = 120°

∵ m∠ADB = (3x)° ⇒ given

∵ m∠BDC = (2x)° ⇒ given

∴ 3x + 2x = 120 ⇒ add like terms

∴ 5x = 120 ⇒ divide both sides by 5

∴ x = 24

Column (1) Column (2)

m∠EDF = 120° given

m∠ADB = 3 x given

m∠BDC = 2 x given

∠EDF and ∠ADC are vertical angles defin. of vert. ∠s

∠EDF is congruent to ∠ADC vertical angles are

congruent

m∠ADC = m∠ADB + m∠BDC angle add. post.

m∠EDF = m∠ADC defin. of cong.

m∠EDF = m∠ADB + m∠BDC substitution

120° = 3 x + 2 x substitution

120 = 5 x addition

x = 24 division

∴ The missing reason is " vertical angles are congruent "

- From the explanation above ∠ADC and ∠FDE are vertical

angles then they are congruent according to vertical angle
