Answer: 3
Step-by-step explanation: This equation can be written as 4x+3x-4=17
We can now solve.
Moving the 4 to the other side (adding) and we get 21.
Now we have 4x+3x. Adding like terms, we get 7x = 21. Now we divide by 7.
X = 3.
Answer:
• x = 9
• y = 6√2
Step-by-step explanation:
The right triangles are all similar, so the ratios of hypotenuse to short side are the same:
27/x = x/3
x^2 = 81 . . . . . multiply by 3x
x = 9 . . . . . . . . take the square root
Then y can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:
x^2 = y^2 + 3^2
81 - 9 = y^2 = 72 . . . . . subtract 9
y = √72 = 6√2 . . . . . . .take the square root
The values of x and y are 9 and 6√2, respectively.
