here's the equation: x+x+(x+12)+ 1/2(x+12) =81

combine like terms

(x+x+x+1/2x) + (12+6) = 81

simplify

7/2x +18=

subtract 18 from both sides.

7/2x=63

multiply by reciprocal (aka 2/7)

x=18

18+12=30 so celia gave 30.

Hope this helps!

Find the area of the kite. Hint: The brackets indicates the full length of a segment
xxMikexx [17]

Answer: 54 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a kite is calculated by the formula:

= (Length * Height) / 2

Length = 6 + 6 = 12 ft

Height = 9 ft

Area = (12 * 9) / 2

= 108 / 2

= 54 ft²

Natalie found a tennis ball outside a tennis court. She picked up the ball and threw it over the fence into the court. The path
jeka57 [31]
To solve this exercise you must follow the proccedure below:

 a) Find the maximum height of the tennis ball:

  You have that the path of the ball can be represented by h=-16t²<span>+18t+5. Then:

 t=-b/2a
 t=-18/2(-16)
 t=0.562
</span>
 h=-16t²+18t+5
 h=-16(0.562)²+18(0.562)+5
 h=10.06

 b) How long will it take to reach the ground?

 h=-16t²+18t+5

 h=0

 -16t²+18t+5=0

 You must apply the quadratic equation: 

 t=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a

 a=-16
 b=18
 c=5

 When you substitute the values, you obtain:

 t=1.35

Given m=3/2 and the point (-1,-3). which of the following is the point slope form of the equation?
kati45 [8]

In general the line with slope <em>m</em> through <em>(a,b) </em>is

y - b = m(x - a)

That's point-slope form. When a or b is negative the sign turns to plus.


Answer: y + 3 = \frac 3 2 (x + 1)

Given vector u = (3, 1) and v = (2,-4), determine the value of v – 4u in<br> component form.
igomit [66]

Answer:

(-10, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

4u

Each component of vector u is multiplied by 4. So

u = (3, 1)

4u = (4*3, 4*1) = (12,4).

v – 4u

Subtraction of the components of vector v by the components of the vector 4u. So

v - 4u = (2, -4) - (12, 4) = (2-12, -4 - 4) = (-10, -8)

The value is (-10, -8)
