First set up a proportion because they are similar triangles:
9/3x-20 = (72+9)/(56+3x-20)
9/3x-20 = 81/3x+36
9(3x+36) = 81(3x-20)
27x+324 = 243x-1620
1944 = 216x
x = 9

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

9 cm/72 cm=3x-20/56

3x-20=56/8. (9÷72=1/8)

3x-20=7

3x=7+20

3x=27

x=27/3

x=9

Find the slope of the line y = -7/6x - 8/3.
Nezavi [6.7K]

Hello!

This equation is written in slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and y is the y-intercept.

Since the coefficient -7/6 is multiplied with x, the slope (or m) has to equal to -7/6.

Therefore, the slope of the line is -7/6.

What is the explicit formula for this sequence?
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is b.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sequence  -7, -4, -1, 2, 5.......  => a₁ = -7, a₂ = -4, a₃ = -1, a₄ = 2 and a₅ = 5

We conclude that this sequence is arithmetic series.

First we must find difference d:

d = a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂ = -4 - (-7) = -1 - (-4) = -4 + 7 = -1 + 4 = 3

d = 3

The formula for n-th term of the arithmetic series is:

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1) d

aₙ = -7 + (n-1) 3

God with you!!!

The equation of the circle is (x+8)^2+(y+9)^2=169. Which of the following are the center and the radius of the circle
ipn [44]
The equation for a circle is (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius
(x + 8)^2 + (y + 9)^2 = 169
Since the equation is -h and -k, I will rewrite in terms of -h and -k.
(x - -8)^2 + (y - -9)^2 = 13^2
The center is (-8, -9) and the radius = 13
Let me know if you need me to explain further.
