There are a couple of ways to tackle this one, using the 45-45-90 rule or just using the pythagorean theore, let's use the pythagorean theorem.
the angle at A is 45°, and its opposite side is BC, the angle at C is 45° as well, and its opposite side is AB, well, the angles are the same, thus BC = AB.
hmmm le'ts call hmmm ohh hmmm say z, thus BC = AB = z.
Answer:
63
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the proportion
(6x+3)/17 = (8x - 1)/21 Cross Multiply
21 * (6x + 3) = 17 (8x - 1) Remove the brackets
126x + 63 = 136x - 17 Subtract 126x from both sides
63 = 136x - 126x - 17 Combine
63 = 10x - 17 Add 17 to both sides
63 + 17 = 10x Combine the left
80 = 10 x Divide by 10
80/10 = x
x = 8
Now you want 8x - 1
8*8 - 1 = 63
Let the x represent the unknown number.
"2 times a number" is 2x
"The sum of 2 times a number and 11" is 2x + 11
"The sum of 2 times a number and 11 is -7" is 2x + 11 = -7
Now we solve the equation for x to find the unknown number.
2x + 11 = -7
Subtract 11 from both sides.
2x = -18
Divide both sides by 2.
x = -9
Answer: The number is -9.
Check: 2 times -9 = -18
-18 + 11 = -7
The answer is correct.
