Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the equations equal to each other and solve for x

8x+11 = 12x-1

11=4x-1

12=4x

x=3

<h3>Answer: x = 3</h3>

============================================

Explanation:

T is the midpoint of SU, so point T cuts segment SU into two equal halves. Those two halves being ST and TU, therefore, ST = TU

ST = TU

8x+11 = 12x-1 ... substitution

8x+11-8x = 12x-1-8x ... subtract 8x from both sides

11 = 4x-1

11+1 = 4x-1+1 .... add 1 to both sides

12 = 4x

4x = 12

4x/4 = 12/4 .... divide both sides by 4

x = 3

As a check, plug x = 3 into each equation below

ST = 8x+11 = 8*3+11 = 24+11 = 35

TU = 12x-1 = 12*3-1 = 36-1 = 35

Each piece ST and TU is 35 units long. So this confirms we have the right answer.

Consider two circular swimming pools. Pool A has a radius of 22 feet, and Pool B has a diameter of 13.6 meters. Complete the des
maw [93]

Answers:

13 42 m; B; 0.57 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

Pool A:  r = 22 ft

Pool B: D = 13.6 m  

Calculations:

1. Radius of Pool A

r = 22 ft × (0.305 m/1 ft) = 6.71 m

2. Diameter of Pool A

D =2r = 2 × 6.71 = 13.42 m

The diameter of Pool A is 13.42 m.

3. Compare pool diameters

The diameter of Pool B is 13.6 m.

So, the diameter of Pool <u>B</u> is greater.

4. Compare circumferences

The formula for the circumference of a circle is

C = 2πr or C = πD

Pool A: C = 2π × 6.71 = 42.16 m

Pool B: r =    π × 13.6 = 42.73 m

Pool B - Pool A = 42.73 - 42.16 = <u>0.57 m </u>

The circumference is greater by <u>0.57 m.</u>

400 people are asked if they drink tea
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

56 people drink 3 cups daily

Step-by-step explanation:

What's the total number of people that drink 3 cups?

Total number of people = 400

7 / 10 were asked said yes

Number of people that said yes = (7 / 10) × 400 = 280

280 people drink tea.

20% of 280 people drink 3 cups daily, whats the number = ?

20% of 280 = ?

20 / 100 = x / 280

(20 × 280) = (100 × x)

5600 = 100x

X = 5600 / 100

X = 56 people

56 people drink 3 cups of tea daily.
