Answer:

x = 9 and 12

Step-by-step explanation:

6/8 = x/12 = x/16

Simplify

3/4 = x/12 = x/16

Multiply 3/4 by 3/3 (does nothing but changes the number)

9/12 = x/12

x = 9

Multiply 3/4 by 4/4 ( also does nothing)

12/16 = x/16

x = 12

How can estimating be helpful

nadezda [96]

It helps you narrow down to a smaller answer for example there is pi, (3.14159265359) and there is more and more to that number. It is now estimated to 3.14 because it would be almost impossible to work with pi if it wasn't estimated

John wants to measure the width of a stream using the methods he has learned in geometry. He puts a stake in the ground opposite

madam [21]

The proper sequence John would use to find the measure he wants.is given as follows:

Step 1: John drives a stake opposite the tree to establish a line between two points.

Step 2: John uses a compass to walk away from the stake at a right angle.

Step 3: On the path John walks until he finds a line of sight to the tree that equals 60 degrees.

Step 4: John drives a second stake in the ground.

Step 5: John measures the distance between the two stakes.

Step 6: John multiplies the distance between the two stakes by 1.7 to find the distance.

5. Which polynomial is equal to (x5 + 1) divided by (x + 1)?

Mkey [24]

Answer:

B $x^4-x^3+x^2-x+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Dividend = $(x^5+1)$

Divisor = $(x+1)$

Step 1: First The dividend is $(x^5+1)$ and Divisor is $(x+1)$ when divided first time the quotient will be $x^4$ and remainder will be $-x^4+1$

Step: 2 Now the new dividend is $-x^4+1$ and Divisor is $(x+1)$ when divided the quotient will be $x^4-x^3$ and remainder will be $x^3+1$

Step: 3 Now the new dividend is $x^3+1$ and Divisor is $(x+1)$ when divided the quotient will be $x^4-x^3+x^2$ and remainder will be $-x^2+1$

Step: 4 Now the new dividend is $-x^2+1$ and Divisor is $(x+1)$ when divided the quotient will be $x^4-x^3+x^2-x$ and remainder will be $x+1$

Step: 5 Now the new dividend is $x+1$ and Divisor is $(x+1)$ when divided the quotient will be $x^4-x^3+x^2-x+1$ and remainder will be 0.

Hence When the polynomial $(x^5+1)$ is divided by $(x+1)$ the answer or quotient will be equal to $x^4-x^3+x^2-x+1$ and remainder will be 0.

The value of a car reduces by 30% every 6 months. A car costs $15,000 when new. What is the value of the car after 2 years?

Allisa [31]

6 months goes into 2 years 4 times
30 x 4 = 120
120% of 15,000 is
100% is 1,500
10% is 150
150 x 2 = 300 (20%)
1,500+300=1,800
15,000+1,800=16,800
hope this helped
