Answer:

x=40/33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

25(4x−3)−2x=45−x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

25(4x−3)−2x=45−x

(25)(4x)+(25)(−3)+−2x=45+−x(Distribute)

100x+−75+−2x=45+−x

(100x+−2x)+(−75)=−x+45(Combine Like Terms)

98x+−75=−x+45

98x−75=−x+45

Step 2: Add x to both sides.

98x−75+x=−x+45+x

99x−75=45

Step 3: Add 75 to both sides.

99x−75+75=45+75

99x=120

Step 4: Divide both sides by 99.

99x

120

Answer:

x=1.2121212121212....

Step-by-step explanation:

25(4x-3)-2x=45-x

+x +x

25(4x-3)-x=45

/25 /25

4x-3-(x/25)=1.8

(99x/25)-3=1.8

+3+3

99x/25=4.8

*25 *25

99x=120

/99 /99

x=1.2121212121212....

4 Consider the triangle below.

Maurinko [17]

<h2>=>> <u>Solution (part A</u>) :</h2>

Given :

▪︎Triangle AMG is an isosceles triangle.

▪︎Measure of segment AM = (x+1.4) inches

▪︎Measure of segment MG = (2x+0.1) inches

▪︎Measure of segment AG = (3x-0.4) inches

▪︎segment AG is the base of triangle AMG.

Since AG is the base of the isosceles triangle AMG, segment AM and segment MG will be equal.

Which means :

$= \tt x + 1.4 = 2x + 0.1$

$= \tt x + 1.4 - 0.1 = 2x$

$= \tt \: x + 1.3 = 2x$

$= \tt 1.3 = 2x - x$

$\color{plum} \hookrightarrow \tt x = 1.3$

Thus, the value of x = 1.3

Therefore :

▪︎The value of x = 1.3

<h2>=>> <u>Solution (Part B)</u> :</h2>

We know that :

▪︎The value of x = 1.3

Which means :

The length of the leg AM :

$= \tt x + 1.4$

$= \tt 1.3 + 1.4$

$\color{plum} \tt leg \: AM= 2.7 \: inches$

Thus, the length of the leg AM = 2.7 inches

The length of leg MG :

$= \tt 2x + 0.1$

$= \tt2 \times 1.3 + 0.1$

$= \tt 2.6 + 0.1$

$\color{plum} \tt\: leg \:MG = 2.7 \: inches$

Thus, the length of the leg MG = 2.7 inches

Since the measure of the two legs are equal (2.7=2.7), we can conclude that we have found out the correct length of each leg.

Therefore :

▪︎Measure of leg AM = 2.7 inches

▪︎Measure of leg MG = 2.7 inches

<h2>=>> <u>Solution </u><u>(</u><u>part C</u><u>)</u> :</h2>

We know that :

Value of x = 1.3

Then, measure of the base AG :

$= \tt 3x - 0.4$

$= \tt 3 \times 1.3 - 0.4$

$= \tt 3.9 - 0.4$

$\color{plum}\tt \: Base \: AG = 3.5 \: inches$

Thus, the measure of the base = 3.5 inches

Therefore :

▪︎ the length of base AG = 3.5 inches.

What is the measure of angle 1?

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

angle 1 = 123°

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, angle 2 = 123° {being veritical opoosite angle}

so, angle 1 = angle 2 {being alternate angle}

so, angle 1 = 123°
