19.  What you know is that HK+KJ = HJ.  If HJ = 25, the sum of the two equations will equal this length.  

x-5+5x-12=25  First, combine your like terms.  You will end up with 6x-17=25.  Add the opposite of -17 to both sides.  6x = 42  Divide both sides by 6.  x = 7.  Substitute x=7 for your original expression of x-5, 7-5=2

20.  (5x-6)/2 = x+6  Multiply each side by 2.  5x-6 = 2x +12  Add 6 to each side 5x = 2x + 18 then subtract 2x from both sides as well.  3x = 18 Finally divide each side by 3.  x=6   To find the length of the remaining segment, substitute this value into (5x-6)/2.  This results in each side equaling a distance of 12.

21.  On the number line, the distance of FG is 16 units.  If the distance of FP is 1/4 of FG, you would simply divide 16 by 4.  The distance of FP is 4 and P lies at 8 on your number line.

23. The distance of SP is x+4 and ST=4x.  Since P is the midpoint, you only have one half of the line as x+4, if you were to double it, you would find that 2x+8 = 4x.  Balance and solve for x, subtract 2x from both sides. 8=2x  Divide each side by 4, 8/4 = 4x/4 resulting in x=2.  If ST equals 4x, substitute and solve, 4(2) = 8

Write the equation of the hyperbola with foci at (1, 5) and (7, 5) and with vertices at (2, 5) and (6, 5).
mash [69]
If you plot the points given on a coordinate plane you see that this is a hyperbola that is is horizontal in nature, meaning it opens side to side, not up and down.  We can determine the center of it by taking the point equidistant from the vertices, which is (4, 5), the h and k of our center, respectively.  Also, the equation looks like this when it is horizontal: \frac{(x-h) ^{2} }{ a^{2} } - \frac{(y-k) ^{2} }{ b^{2} } =1.  a is the distance between the center and the vertices, so our a = 2, and c is the distance between the center and the foci, so our c = 3.  We need to find b now, using Pythagorean's theorem.  ( 2)^{2} + b^{2} =( 3)^{2} and b= \sqrt{5}.  Now we have everything we need to rewrite the equation: \frac{(x-4) ^{2} }{4} - \frac{(y-5) ^{2} }{5} =1

URGENT!!!! WILL GIVE BRANLIEST !!!! Find the height, x, of the building. A) 113.3 ft B) 91.8 ft C) 44.5 ft D) 233.7 ft
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

91.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

tan theta = opp/ adj

tan 42 = x/102

102 tan 42 =x

91.84121252 =x

Cube 1 has a volume of c3. The side lengths of Cube 2 are three units longer than those of Cube 1. What is the volume of Cube 2?
kotegsom [21]
Volume of a Cube:  
<span>Since all of the edges of a cube are of equal length, there is no need to differentiate between the length, width and height.  The volume of a cube is determined by multiplying the length of three edges of the cube.  Let "a" define the length of an edge of the cube.  

Then the volume formula is defined as:</span>
V = a<span> × </span>a<span> × </span>a
<span>This formula is also written as V = a³<span>.

If a = 5 feet, then the volume is found like this:</span></span>
V = (5)³ = 5<span> × </span>5<span> × </span>5 = 125:  Since each value is a measurement of feet, the volume is therefore 125 cubic feet. 

Example 1:<span> Find the volume of a solid cube shape box whose side is 13m.</span>
Solution: 
<span>Given that: side a = 3m
Volume of the cube is therefore:</span>
V = a³
V = 13³
<span>V = 2197 m3</span>

Example 2:<span><span> Find the measure of volume of a cube for the given side length is 20 inches?</span>
<span>Solution:</span> 
<span>Given that: Side a = 20 inches
Volume of the cube is therefore:</span></span>
V = a³
V = 20³
<span>V = 8000 in3</span>
<span>Therefore, volume of a cube is 8000 in3.

</span>
Example 3:<span> Find the volume of a cube for the given side length 12.5 meter?</span>
Solution: 
Given that: Side a = 12.5 m
V = a³
V = 12.5³
<span>V = 1953.125 m3</span>
<span><span>Therefore, the volume of the cube is 1953.125 cubic meter.</span>

Earth has a diameter of approximately 8,000 miles. If the circumference of a circle can be found using the formula C = πd, what
gladu [14]

Answer: Circumference of Earth= 25120 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The circumference of a circle can be found using the formula C = \pi d, where d= diameter of the circle.

Earth's diameter = 8000 miles (approx)

The circumference of circle = 3.14\times 8000  [substitute values in formula]

The circumference of circle = 25120 miles (approx)

Hence,  the circumference of Earth= 25120 miles (approx)
