Answer: 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the shape is a kite we can tell that WX and WZ are congruent.
So 4x-8 = 2x+2
Add 8 to both sides
4x = 2x+10
Subtract 2x
2x = 10
Divide by 2
x = 5
12 cookies= 1 dozen.
12*4 (dozens) =48
48/ 4= 12
12 cookies is a 1/4 or 25% of the whole amount of cookies.
48- 12= 36
He brings 36 cookies to school.
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
I think there may be other ways to do this ... but this is one I guess....
one angle= 90 ( given)
the other = 45 (given)
the third = 90 + 45 + a = 180
(all angles of triangles is 180 [angle sum property])
a = 180 - 135
= 45
The base angles are equal so that means it is a isoscles triangle. In isoscles triangle, two sides are equal , so
if one side is 7
the x is 7 too
(as it cant be the hypothenus)
I think this is right
Lets check...
42/56 = 56/64
cross multiply
(56)(56) = (42)(64)
3136 = 2688...(incorrect)...these are not proportional
proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions
42/56 = 3/4
56/64 = 7/8
as u can see, they are not equivalent fractions...so they are not proportional
