Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

the line x + 5 is a mid segment of the triangle and thus is half the length of 3x - 1, that is

x + 5 = $\frac{1}{2}$ (3x - 1)

multiply both sides by 2 to eliminate the fraction

2x + 10 = 3x - 1 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

- x + 10 = - 1 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

- x = - 11 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

x = 11

Calculate the estimate of the mean height of the students in cm and explain your answer

Zolol [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

we find the average height of each height first,

t¹= (120+124)/2

=244/2

=122

t²= (124+128)/2

t²= 252/2

t²= 126

t³= (128+132)/2

t³= 260/2

t³= 130

t⁴= (132+136)/2

t⁴= 268/2

t⁴ =134

t⁵= (136+140)/2

t⁵= 276/2

t⁵= 138

so multiplying each height by its frequency we can find the total height, so we have..

total height= (122*7)+(126*8)+(130*13)+(134*9)+(138*3)

= 854+1008+1690+1206+414

= 5172

mean height = total height/total frequency

= 5172/40

=129.3

The Perimeter of a Pentagon is 20.5 centimeters. Four sides of this pentagon have the same length, in centimeters, x, and the ot

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

$4.6\ \text{cm}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the pentagon = 20.5 cm

Length of 4 sides = $x$

Length of the other side = 2.1 cm

Perimeter of the pentagon will be

$x+x+x+x+2.1=20.5\\\Rightarrow 4x+2.1=20.5\\\Rightarrow 4x=20.5-2.1\\\Rightarrow 4x=18.4\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{18.4}{4}\\\Rightarrow x=4.6\ \text{cm}$

The value of $x$ is $4.6\ \text{cm}$ .

A school book fair has 72 non fiction books and 328fiction books for sale. What percent of the book fair is non fiction books

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

18%

Step-by-step explanation:

Non fiction books - 72

Fiction Books - 328

Total Books - 400

72 + 328 = 400

Percent of non fiction books to book fair - 18%

$\frac{72}{400}$

Simplify it until it has a denominator of 100, since that is the standard denomination for percentages.

$\frac{18}{100}$

18% or 0.18.
