Answer:

The value of x is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: VWYX is a kite, ∠W=(18x-2)° and ∠X=(12x+2)°.

According to the properties of kite, the sum of opposite angles of a kite is 180°.

In kite VWYX, ∠W and ∠X are opposite angles, so their sum is 180°.

\angle W+\angle X=180^{\circ}

(18x-2)+(12x+2)=180

On combining like terms we get

(18x+12x)+(-2+2)=180

30x=180

Divide both sides by 30.

x=\frac{180}{30}

x=6

Therefore the value of x is 6.

For this case we have that by definition, the sum of the internal angles of a quadrilateral is 360 degrees.

So we have to:

(18x-2) + (12x + 2) + 90 + 90 = 360

In the figures they indicate that there are two angles of 90 degrees.

We eliminate parentheses:

18x-2 + 12x + 2 + 90 + 90 = 360

We add similar terms:

18x + 12x-2 + 2 + 90 + 90 = 360\\30x + 180 = 360\\30x = 360-180\\30x = 180\\x = \frac {180} {30}\\x = 6

Answer:

x = 6

klemol [59]

she had 98 but spent 10.85 so she now has:

98-10.85 = 87.15

skateboard cost 64

87.15 -64 = 23.15 is what she can spend on cookies

23.15 / 1.65 = 14.03 she can't buy more than 14 cookies

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

18" X 18" X 36"

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a square base container of height h, let a side of the base =s

The volume of the container, V= s^2h

If the sum of its height and girth (the perimeter of its base) equals 108 in

4s+h = 108\\h = 108-4s

Substituting h=108-4s into V

V= s^2(108-4s)

We are required to determine the maximum volume of such container, first we take the derivative:

V'(s)= s(216-12s)

Optimizing:

s(216-12s)=0\\216-12s=0\\12s=216\\s=216 \div 12\\s=18

Recall that: h = 108-4s

h = 108-4(18)=108-72=36inch

The dimensions of the carton are 18" X 18" X 36".

If (9^2)p = 9^8, what is the value of p?
Stolb23 [73]
When you're raising a power to a power, you multiply.
Since they are equal the exponent has to be the same.
2p=8; this is the equation we'll use to make sure we get the value of p. Let's divide.
8÷2=4=p

So, p=4.
