Answer:

x = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{1}{3}$ (x - 2) = $\frac{1}{5}$ (x + 4) + 2

Multiply through by 15 to clear the fractions

5(x - 2) =3(x + 4) + 30 ← distribute and simplify both sides

5x - 10 = 3x + 12 + 30, that is

5x - 10 = 3x + 42 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2x - 10 = 42 ( add 10 to both sides )

2x = 52 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 26

Find the geometric proof

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Line l is bisector of MO... (given)

$\therefore MN = NO.... (1)$

$\because MN + NO = MO..(M-N-O)$

$\therefore NO + NO = MO..[From \:(1)]$

$\therefore 2NO = MO$

$\therefore NO = \frac{1}{2} MO$

$\therefore NO = \frac{1}{2}\times 24..(\because MO=24)$

$\therefore NO =12$

Thus Proved

Step-by-step explanation:

verticales están a 12 metros uno del otro. Si tanto la parte superior como la inferior del arco son arcos de parábola, redondeo hasta el metro más cercano la suma de longitudes de los tirantes verticales e inclinados.
