3 0

Answer:

x = -3, x = 0 is a extraneous solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Cross-multiply

3x² = 4x² + 3x

Step 2: Isolate x's

0 = x² + 3x

Step 3: Factor

0 = x(x + 3)

Step 4: Find roots

x = 0, -3

Step 5: Double check work

Plug in both to see if they both work. Only x = 0 should be extraneous. We now have our answer!

One number is 9 more than twice another. If their difference is 22, what is the larger number?

mafiozo [28]

Let, the numbers are: x, y
So, Equations will be: x - y = 22
x = 2y + 9

Substitute the value of x in first equation,
2y + 9 - y = 22
y = 22 - 9
y = 13

x - 13 = 22
x = 22 + 13 = 35

In short, Larger number would be 35

Hope this helps!

Please help!!!! 2 questions 50 points!!!!

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1

The missing angles

Both the unknown angles have the same value as the other two angles in the triangles are the same
∠(missing) = 180 - (72 x 2)
∠(missing) = 180 - 144
∠(missing) = 36°

⇒ The sides are equal

⇒ Angles are not 90°

⇒ It is a rhombus

Question 2

The diagonals of the shape bisect other (Statement 1)
NY = NW (given)
XN = NZ (given)
∠XNY = ∠WXZ (vertically opposite angles)
ΔXNY ≅ ΔWXZ (SAS)
They form two congruent triangles (Statement 2)
From these two statements, it is evident the figure is a parallelogram
