What is the answer to 11=x/-5 +8

1 answer:

Sladkaya [172]4 years ago

To solve this problem, we must get the variable x alone on one side of the equation. To do this, first we must subtract 8 from both sides of the equation.

11=x/-5 + 8 = 19 = x/-5

Next, we must multiply both sides by -5, to cancel out the fraction term on the right side of the equation.

3 = x/-5 = -15=x

Therefore, x = -15, which is the solution to this equation.

Hope this helps!

Triangle ABC has side lengths 10, 14, and 26. Do the side lengths form a Pythagorean triple? Explain.

uysha [10]

By <span>Pythagorean triple
a²+b²=c²,
c should be longest side
10²+14²=26²
100+196=676
296</span>≠676
so sides do not form Pythagorean triple, it is not a right triangle

Find the area of △LKJ.

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

$A=600\: u^{2}$

<u>The correct answer is letter c.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The area equation of a triangle is given by:

$A=\frac{bh}{2}$ (1)

Where:

b is the base

h is the height

Let's find first the angle MJK (α), using the tangent definition.

$tan(\alpha)=\frac{24}{32}$

$\alpha=tan^{-1}(\frac{24}{32})$

$\alpha=36.9^{\circ}$

Now, if α = 37° then β (angle JLK) must be:

$37^{\circ} + \beta + 90^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$

$\beta=53^{\circ}$

Now, we can find the distance ML using again the tangent definition:

$tan(\beta)=\frac{24}{ML}$

$ML=\frac{24}{tan(53)}$

$ML=18$

The base of the triangle LKJ will be:

$b=32+ML=32+18=50$

Therefore, using equation (1) the area of △LKJ will be:

$A=\frac{50*24}{2}$

$A=600\: u^{2}$

The correct answer is c.

I hope it helps you!

Select the action you would use to solve 3x = 12. Then select the property

boyakko [2]

Answer:

C. Action: Divide both sides by 3.

F. Property: Division property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

you are trying to get x by itself so if you divide by 3 you are taking the 3 from x, and what you do to one side you do to the other.
