Find the value of x in each case:

Answer:

x = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the value of x, we must first obtain the value of y and z as shown in the attached photo.

i. Determination of y

2x + y = 180 (angle on a straight line)

Rearrange

y = 180 – 2x

ii. Determination of z.

z + 4x = 180 (angle on a straight line)

Rearrange

z = 180 – 4x

iii. Determination of x

x + y + z = 180 (sum of angles in a triangle)

But:

y = 180 – 2x

z = 180 – 4x

Therefore,

x + y + z = 180

x + 180 – 2x + 180 – 4x = 180

Collect like terms

x – 2x – 4x = 180 – 180 –180

– 5x = – 180

Divide both side by – 5

x = – 180 / – 5

x = 36

Therefore, the value of x is 36.

what is the growth factor of y=34×4^x, the initial amount of y=15×3^x and the decay factor of y=17×0.2^x
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
So the growth factor is the base of the exponential term, so the base of y = 34 * 4^x is 4.
the initial amount is the amount at x = 0
y = 15 * 3^xy = 15 * 3^0y = 15 * 1y = 15 is the initial amount
the decay factor of y=17×0.2^x is same as the growth factor, it is 0.2
