PLEASE HELP!!!! solve for x.​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Wittaler [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: x=11.67

<u>Step 1</u>

Use the following equation to find x. We can use this equation because Triangle 1 (triangle within triangle ABC) and Triangle 2 (triangle ABC) are proportional and we can use the system of equations below to create and equation.

\frac{x}{9}=\frac{x+5}{12}

<u>Step 2</u>

We can then use the equation below by cross multiplying the previous equation in step 1.

12x= 9x+35

<u>Step 3</u>

Then solve the equation to find x!

12x=9x+35

3x=35

x=11.67 (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

I need Helppppppppppppppp with this
amid [387]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Jessica divides the ribbon in three parts out of which length of one part = 3\frac{1}{2} inches

Let the length of other two parts = x inches

Total length of whole ribbon = 12 inches

3\frac{1}{2}+x+x=12

3\frac{1}{2}+2x=12

2x=12-3\frac{1}{2}

2x=12-\frac{7}{2}

2x=\frac{24-7}{2}

2x=\frac{17}{2}

x=\frac{17}{4}

x=7\frac{1}{4} inches

Therefore, option A will be the answer.

Between 0 degrees Celsius and 30 degrees Celsius, the volume V (in cubic centimeters) of 1 kg of water at a temperature T is giv
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

T = 3.967 C

Step-by-step explanation:

Density = mass / volume

Use the mass = 1kg and volume as the equation given V, we will come up with the following equation

D = 1 / 999.87−0.06426T+0.0085043T^2−0.0000679T^3

   = (999.87−0.06426T+0.0085043T^2−0.0000679T^3)^-1

Find the first derivative of D with respect to temperature T

dD/dT = \dfrac{70000000\left(291T^2-24298T+91800\right)}{\left(679T^3-85043T^2+642600T-9998700000\right)^2}

Let dD/dT = 0 to find the critical value we will get

\dfrac{70000000\left(291T^2-24298T+91800\right)}  = 0

Using formula of quadratic, we get the roots:

T =  79.53 and T = 3.967

Since the temperature is only between 0 and 30, pick T = 3.967

Find 2nd derivative to check whether the equation will have maximum value:

-\dfrac{140000000\left(395178T^4-65993368T^3+3286558821T^2+2886200857800T-121415215620000\right)}{\left(679T^3-85043T^2+642600T-9998700000\right)^3}

Substituting the value with T=3.967,

d2D/dT2 = -1.54 x 10^(-8)    a negative value. Hence It is a maximum value

Substitute T =3.967 into equation V, we get V = 0.001 i.e. the volume when the the density is the highest is at 0.001 m3 with density of

D = 1/0.001 = 1000 kg/m3

Therefore T = 3.967 C
