Measure of x is 74 degrees
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
EG = 59
EF = 8x - 14
FG = 4x + 1
to find the value of x
EF + FG = EG (same line)
8x - 14 + 4x + 1 = 59
12x -13 = 59
12x = 59 + 13
12x = 72
x = 72 ÷ 12
x = 6
You can even cross check for correct answer
EF + FG = EG
instead of x place the x's value we got
8x - 14 + 4x + 1 = 59
8 (6) - 14 + 4 (6) + 1 = 59
48 - 14 + 24 + 1 = 59
34 + 25 = 59
59 = 59
CROSS - CHECKED
You need two pieces and 1 has to be 2x longer than the other
set x as the smaller piece (easier to always go with the smaller value as x)
the other piece is 2x (double in size)
your equations would be 3x=240>>> x= 60
so smaller piece/ x= 60
bigger piece/ 2x= 120
Answer:
terminating
Step-by-step explanation:
if the given fraction is terminating then prime factors of denominator should be 2^n x 5^m where m and n are whole number
5=1x5=2^0x5^1
so it is of form 2^nx5^m
