x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 5x - 29

Combine like terms.

3x + 3 = 5x - 29

Subtract 3x from both sides.

3 = 2x - 29

Add 29 to both sides.

32 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2.

16 = x

sergejj [24]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

P = (x% * y)

P = (5% * 240)

p = 5/100 = 0.05

P = (0.05 * 240)

P = 12

Find the area of each regular polygon. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.
tatuchka [14]

*I am assuming that the hexagons in all questions are regular and the triangle in (24) is equilateral*

(21)

Area of a Regular Hexagon: \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}(side)^{2} = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}*(\frac{20\sqrt{3} }{3} )^{2} =200\sqrt{3} square units

(22)

Similar to (21)

Area = 216\sqrt{3} square units

(23)

For this case, we will have to consider the relation between the side and inradius of the hexagon. Since, a hexagon is basically a combination of six equilateral triangles, the inradius of the hexagon is basically the altitude of one of the six equilateral triangles. The relation between altitude of an equilateral triangle and its side is given by:

altitude=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}*side

side = \frac{36}{\sqrt{3}}

Hence, area of the hexagon will be: 648\sqrt{3} square units

(24)

Given is the inradius of an equilateral triangle.

Inradius = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{6}*side

Substituting the value of inradius and calculating the length of the side of the equilateral triangle:

Side = 16 units

Area of equilateral triangle = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}*(side)^{2} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}*256 = 64\sqrt{3} square units

Select the three ratios that represent the number of red cars to blue cars.
Lorico [155]

Three ratios that represent the number of red cars to blue cars are

2 : 3

6 : 9

8 : 12

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

Number of Red Cars = 4

Number of Blue Cars = 6

<u>Asked:</u>

Ratio = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>Let:</em>

<em>Number of Red Cars = R</em>

<em>Number of Blue Cars = B</em>

The ratio that represent the number of red cars to blue cars is :

R : B = 4 : 6

We can find other ratio by dividing or multiplying the above comparison with the same number :

R : B = (4/2) : (6/2) = 2 : 3

R : B = (4 \times 2) : (6 \times 2) = 8 : 12

R : B = (4 \times \frac{3}{2}) : (6 \times \frac{3}{2}) = 6 : 9

\texttt{ }

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

Three ratios that represent the number of red cars to blue cars are:

  • 2 : 3
  • 6 : 9
  • 8 : 12
