Answer:

X = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparing the two triangle put the right angle into consideration.

(17 + X)/(X + 8) = (X + 8)/X

Cross multiplying

X(17 + X) = (X + 8)(X + 8)

17X + X^2 = X^2 + 8X + 8X + 64

Collecting like terms

X^2 - X^2 + 17X - 8X - 8X = 64

X = 64

Find the slope of the line passing through each pair of points.

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

you have to use the slope equation, which is (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

3. (5-0)/(1 -(-8))

5/1+8

5/9

4. (3-3)/(-4 -8)

0/-12

the slope is 0

6. (-2-8)/(1-0.5)

-10/0.5

-20

7. (7-(-1))/ (4-4)

7+1/0

8/0

the slope is undefined

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total concrete for slabs

24 * 24 * 1 = 576 ft³

Additional 20 %

By rule of three

if 576 ⇒ 100

x?? ⇒ 20 x = 115,2

And there are 2 slabs, the total volume of concrete is:

Q(t) = 2* (576 + 115,2 ) Q(t) = 1382,4 ft³ (1)

If the truck can carry a maximum of 8 yd³, as 1 ft³ = 0,037 yd³

then a truck can carry a maximum of

8/ 0,037 = 216,21 ft³

Now the total quantity is 1382,4

Then

1382,4/216,21 = 6,39

And as nobody can send a fraction of a truck , the fewest number of truck is 7

The highest scorer of the women's basketball championship was Jessica Bradley. She scored 114 more points than Tina Harner, her

Harman [31]

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE:

Answer: Bradley scored 854 points and Harner scored 748 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by representing the problem mathematically. "B" will represent Bradley's score, and "H" will represent Harner's score.

B+H=1602 represents that the sum of the scores is 1602.

B-H=106 represents that Bradley has 106 more points than Harner.

Now, combine the like terms in the two equations to get 2B=1708 . Now divide each side by two to find that Bradley scored 854 points.

Now, we can just subtract Bradley's score from the total score to get Harner's score. 1602-854=748, so Harner scored 748 points.
