DE + EF = 4x+2

DE = x+7

EF = 7

Substitute these in

x + 7 + 7 = 4x + 2

x + 14 = 4x + 2

subtract x from both sides

14 = 3x + 2

subtract 2 from both sides

3x = 12

divide both sides by 3

x = 4

substitute this in to find the length of DE

DE = x + 7

(4) + 7 = 11

the answer is 11

From figure we can see that:

DE=DF -EF

x+7 = 4x+2-7

combining like terms

x+7=4x-5

subtract x on the right side from 4x

7=(4x-x) -5

7=3x-5

add 5 on the left side

7+5=3x

12=3x

divide both sides by 3

x=4

DE=x+7 =4+7

DE=11

A sample of marble has a volume of 6 cm3 and a density of 2.76 g/cm3. What is its mass?

Drupady [299]

Answer:

$16.56\ g$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The density is equal to the mass divided by the volume

Let

x-----> the mass of marble

y----> the volume of marble

z----> the density of marble

$z=\frac{x}{y}$

in this problem we have

$y=6\ cm^{3}$

$z=2.76\ g/cm^{3}$

substitute and solve for x

$2.76=\frac{x}{6}$

$x=2.76*6=16.56\ g$

In the calm waters of an inlet, Manon's boat moves with a velocity (speed and direction) vector \vec{b_1} = (3,4) b 1 =(3,4)

andrew-mc [135]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$b_1=(3,4)$

$b_2=(1,1)$

We have to find the speed of river's current and the direction of current flowing.

$b=b_2-b_1=(1,1)-(3,4)=(-2,-3)$

Speed of river's current= $\mid b\mid$

Speed of river's current= $\sqrt{(-2)^2+(-3)^2}$

Speed of river's current= $\sqrt{13} m/s$

By using the formula

$\mid r\mid =\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$

Direction of current flowing, $\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})$

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{-3}{-2})=56.3^{\circ}$

The angle lies in third quadrant therefore

$\theta=180+56.3=236.3^{\circ}$

Write a number sentence to represent the model. Explain how you determined the number sentence.

vampirchik [111]

90 % sure

The image attached shows an operation that can be represented with whole numbers, becuase there are positive and negative characters.

So, we know by given that there are +4 circles and -7 circles, and the whole can be expressed as the algebraic sum of them,

Therefore, the model can be represented by the number -3, which is the whole because is the result of the operation that represent each type of element.

hope i helped

8. The expression (x+5)(x+8)+(x+5)(2x - 3) can be written as the product of (x + 5) and

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

(x + 5)(3x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 5)(x + 8) + (x + 5)(2x - 3) ← factor out (x + 5) from each term

= (x + 5)(x + 8 + 2x - 3)

= (x + 5)(3x + 5)
