×= 10 and ×= -14

|x+2| - 3 = 9

Option 1:

x + 2 - 3 = 9

x - 1 = 9   <em>  add 1</em>

x = 9 + 1

x = 10

Option 2:

-(x+2) - 3 = 9  <em>Distribute "-" through the parenthesis </em>

-x - 2 - 3 = 9

-x - 5 = 9     <em>Add 5</em>

-x = 9 + 5

-x = 14   <em>Multiply by -1</em>

x = -14

If CDE ~ GDF, find ED
qaws [65]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

\triangle CDE \sim \triangle GDF.. (given) \\\\\therefore \frac{CD}{GD} =\frac{DE}{DF}.. (csst) \\\\\therefore  \frac{15}{x+3} =\frac{3x+1}{4}\\\\ \therefore   \: 15 \times 4 = (x + 3)(3x + 1) \\  \\ \therefore   \: 60 = 3 {x}^{2}  + x + 9x + 3 \\  \\ \therefore  3 {x}^{2}  + 10x + 3 - 60 = 0 \\ \therefore  3 {x}^{2}  + 10x  - 57 = 0 \\ \therefore  3 {x}^{2}  + 19x - 9x  - 57 = 0 \\ \therefore   \: x(3x + 19) - 3(3x + 19) = 0 \\\therefore   \:  (3x + 19)(x - 3) = 0 \\ \therefore   \: 3x + 19 = 0 \:  \: or \:  \: x - 3 = 0 \\  \therefore   \: x =  -  \frac{19}{3}  \:  \: or \:  \: x = 3 \\  \because \: x \: can \: not \: be \:  - ve \\ \therefore   \: x = 3 \\ ED = 3x + 1 = 3 \times 3 + 1  \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ ED= 10}}

Does anyone know how to solve this?
Bezzdna [24]

Use this version of the Law of Cosines to find side b:

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 − 2ac cos(B)

We want side b.

b^2 = (41)^2 + (20)^2 - 2(41)(20)cos(36°)

After finding b, you can use the Law of Sines to find angles A and C or use other forms of the Law of Cosines to find angles A and C.

Try it....
