Answer:
should be 15...
Step-by-step explanation:
the correct answer should be (b) 6 is extraneous.
If you look at the second row of the solution you see (x-6) as a factor in one of the denominators. That's a problem: if 6 were a solution this denominator would become 0. But denominators being 0 is bad (undefined), so while 6 comes out of the algebraic manipulation as a solution, it is invalid, or extraneous.
-3 is a fine solution.
Answer:
m<G = 71
Step-by-step explanation:
Find x first
7x + 1 + 6x - 6 + 55 = 180
Combine like terms:
13x + 50 = 180
- 50 - 50
13x = 130
/13 /13
x = 10
Then apply to problem
7 (10) + 1
70 + 1
= 71
Answer:
7. 80 miles
8. F
Step-by-step explanation:
7. Jorge leaves 2 hours early, and is going 20 miles per hour. So before Marcos starts going, Jorge has gone 40 miles (2*20). Then, 1 hour later, Jorge is at 60 miles and Marcos is at 40 (because he goes 40 miles per hour in his car). Another hour later, Jorge is at 80 (60+20) and Marcos is at 80 as well (40 + 40). They will both have gone 80 miles when Marcus catches up.
8. You want to get <em>a</em> isolated.
A = h/2(a + b)
First, multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of h/2.
2A/h = a + b
Then, subtract b from both sides.
2A-b/h = a
Answer:
2. ΔABC is isosceles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : m∠A = 50
m∠BCD = 180 - (m∠BDC + m∠DBC)
= 180 - (100 + 30)
= 50
then
m∠A = m∠BCD
therefore ΔABC is isosceles
