Mathematics

Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are similar so we can use ratios to solve

x             6

------ = -----------

x+8         8

Using cross products

8x = 6*(x+8)

8x = 6x+48

Subtract 6x from each side

8x-6x = 48

2x = 48

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 48/2

x = 24

Answer:

x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Very similar to the previous problems of this type, these two triangles have a shared angle A and both have a right angle, prove AA similarity.

From there, we can set up a ratio:

(x+8)/x = 8/6

Multiply both sides by x:

x+8 = 8x/6

Multiply both sides by 6:

6x+48 = 8x

Move the 6x to the right:

48 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 24

Find the equation of the line <br> Y= x+ <br> Use exact numbers
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

y=-1/4x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem wants the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The y-intercept in this case is -6 (where the line intercepts the y-axis).

We can use points (0,-6) and (4,-7) to calculate the slope. We just divide the difference in y-values by the difference in x-values.

-6-(-7)/0-4=-6+7/-4=1/-4=-1/4

So the equation of the line is y=-1/4x-6

7x+4y=20 point slope form
miskamm [114]

Answer:

y = -\frac{7}{4}x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

So here we have to put it in y = mx + b form;

7x + 4y = 20

Subtract 7x from both sides;

4y = -7x + 20

Divide both sides by 4;

y = -\frac{7}{4}x + 5

If 4 : 9 is equivalent to (5x+13) : 63, then what is the value of x?
Aleksandr [31]

\large{\underline{\underline{\pmb{\sf{\color{yellow}{Answer:}}}}}}

The value of x is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

\textsf{\underline{\large{To find :-}}}

The value of x

\textsf{\underline{\large{Given :-}}}

4 : 9 = (5x + 13) : 63

\textsf{\underline{\underline{\large{Solution :-}}}}

we can write this as

\sf \frac{4}{9}  =  \frac{(5x + 13)}{63}

Now we will cross multiply the values

\sf 4 \times 63 = 9(5x + 13) \\  \\  \sf  252 = 45x + 117 \\  \\  \sf 252 - 117 = 45x \\  \\  \sf 135 = 45x \\  \\  \sf  \frac{135}{45}  = x \\  \\  \sf  \orange {3 = x}
