What is the value of x?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.
denis23 [38]

let's notice that, each angle has an "angle tickmark", indicating that all three angles are equal, thus is an equilateral triangle, since the sides are equal, then

\bf \stackrel{AC}{4x-30}~~=~~\stackrel{CB}{2x+20}\implies 2x-30=20 \\\\\\ 2x=50\implies x = \cfrac{50}{2}\implies x=25

The sum of four consecutive integers is 418. Find them.
cupoosta [38]

Answer: 103, 104, 105, and 106

Step-by-step explanation: This problem states that the sum of 4 consecutive integers is 418 and it asks us to find the integers.

First represent your 4 consecutive integers as follows.

X ⇒ first integer

X + 1 ⇒ second integer

X + 2 ⇒ third integer

X + 3 ⇒ fourth integer

Since their sum is 418, our equation reads

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = 418.

Simplifying on the left side we get 4x + 6 = 418.

Now we can subtract 6 from both sides of the equation and we have

4x = 412.

Now just divide both sides by 4 and we find that <em>x = 103</em>.

Finally, make sure you list all your answers.

If <em>x</em> is 103, then <em>x </em>+ 1 is 104, <em>x</em> + 2 is 105, and <em>x</em> + 3 is 106

Therefore, our 3 consecutive integers are 103, 104, 105, and 106.

Whats the coefficient of 1/2x^2+x+7
dsp73

Answer:

<u>B. 1/2 and 1.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficient of a variable is the number that the variable is being multiplied for. In this example. We can see that x² is being multiplied by 1/2, therefore <u>1/2 is one of the coefficients</u>.

In the case of x, it doesn't have a number before it, it means that it's being multiplied by 1. Hence, our <u>second coefficient is 1</u>.
