What is x? I have been having trouble with these

Mathematics
1 answer:
Wittaler [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) =   (whole secant) x (external part)

(6+x) * 6 =(5+x+3) *5

(6+x) * 6 =(x+8) *5

Distribute

36+6x = 5x+40

Subtract 5x from each side

36+6x-5x = 5x-5x+40

36+x = 40

Subtract 36 from each side

36+x-36 = 40-36

x = 4

Mark counts six ducks in a pond and some ducks on the grass. There are ducks all l4. Draw a picture to show the two groups of du
murzikaleks [220]
So 6 in pond
some on grass
# in pond+# in grass=14
6 in pond
subsitute 6 for pond
6+# in greass=14
subtract 6 from both sides
6-6+# in grass=14-6
0+# in grass=8
# in grass=8
there are 8 ducks in grass

so you would draw a circle for the pond and put 6 circles in there to represent the ducks, then , outside of that big circle, draw 8 circles to represent the 8 ducks on the grass (maybe label the big circle as pond and outside as grass)

A runner warmed up for 10 minutes and then takes seven minutes to run each mile. The total time after r miles is 45 minutes how
scoundrel [369]
So our equation to find this can be represented by 7x + 10 = 45.
(x representing miles run)
Just solve for x!

Subtract the 10 from both sides, you've got
 7x = 35
And now to isolate the x, we divide both sides by 7.
Now we're left with just
x = 5!

We can check this by substituting 5 as x in our equation.
7x x 5 + 10 = 45
45 = 45
It's right!

So the runner ran 5 miles total.

Hope this helps!
If I skimmed over this too much, let me know and I'll try to explain the best that I can.
