Lets pick a random number, like 50. Lets decrease and increase it by 50%. After the decrease, you will get 25, but when you increase it by 50%, it's only 37.5. No, because when you decrease it, you have a smaller base, so it increases less than it decreases. 50% of 100 is 50, but 50% of 50 is 25. You can see there is a significant difference.
Add 5 to both sides
y + 5 = x^2
Take the square root of both sides
±√y + 5 = x
Switch sides
<u>x = ±√y + 5</u>
Is there a picture of the shape, and is 4x - 2 AC or AB?
The two expressions could be :
2 - 1/2m
2 - m / 2
If the ratios are 2:12:16 the equation that should be used is 2x + 12x + 16x = 180.
First solve for x:
2x + 12x + 16x = 180
30x = 180
x = 6
Then plug x back in to find the degrees for each angle:
2x = 2(6) = 12
12x = 12(6) = 72
16x = 16(6) = 96
These are the degrees for each triangle: 12 degrees, 72 degrees, and 96 degrees which adds up to 180 degrees in total.
The equation, also at the top, is 2x + 12x + 16x = 180.
