Find the sum of (x + 5) and (2x + 3)

1 answer:

7 0

What you can do is subtract 1x from each side
Then you subtract 3 from each side
Then it tells you x=2
Always put what you think x is back into the problem and see if it works out

Example on how you do it:
(x+5)=(2x+3)
5=(x+3)
2=x

If Joe drives 186.83 miles on a business trip, and the reimbursement from his company is $13.08. At what rate is Joe's employer

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

7 cents/mile

Step-by-step explanation:

You are looking for a unit rate of cents per mile.

Change the dollar amount to cents, and divide by the number of miles.

$13.08 * (100 cents)/$ = 1308 cents

(1308 cents)/(183 miles) = 7.001 cents/mile

In the figure below, segment CD is parallel to segment EF and point H bisects segment DE :

Grace [21]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure below, segment CD is parallel to segment EF, DE is a transversal, then angles DIH and HGI are congruent as alternate interior angles when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal.

Consider triangles DIH and EGH. In these triangles,

$\angle DIH\cong \angle EGH$ as alternate interior angles;
$\angle DHI\cong \angle GHE$ as vertical angles;
$DH\cong HE$ because point H bisects segment DE (given).

Thus,

$\triangle DIH\cong \triangle EGH$ by AAS postulate
