We can get two different equations from this:
3x = 18
and
3x = -18
So:
x = 6, x = -6
x = {6, -6}
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the top and bottom, both by sqrtx-sqrt5. This is in order to rationalize the denominators.
You get answer C.
4x+(-3)=-2x-5
4x-3 = -2x-5
add 2x to each side
6x-3 =-5
add 3 to each side
6x = -2
divide by 6
x = -2/6
divide top and bottom by 2
x = -1/3
Answer:
x = 2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
-9(x - 5) = x + 22 1/2
Distribute the nine and then add 9x to both sides
-9x + 45 = x +22 1/2
+ 9x + 9x
Then try to get x alone
45 = 10x + 22 1/2
-22 1/2 -22 1/2
22.5 = 10x

2.25 = x
Answer:
158.76 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadrilateral ABCD is composed of 2 right triangles
Construct the line BD, then
Δ ABD and Δ BCD are the 2 right triangles.
The area (A) of a triangle is calculated using
A =
bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )
Δ ABD with b = 18 and h = 7.5
A =
× 18 × 7.5 = 9 × 7.5 = 67.5 cm²
Δ BCD with b = 15.6 and h = 11.7
A =
× 15.6 × 11.7 = 7.8 × 11.7 = 91.26 cm²
Thus
area of ABCD = 67.5 + 91.26 = 158.76 cm²
