BC = 4x + 2 AB = 8x + 8 and AC = 22 Find BC

Mathematics

Scilla [17]3 years ago

Answer:

BC = 6.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from A to B, then from B to C, is the same distance as from A to C.

Thus,

AB + BC = AC

AB = 8x + 8

BC = 4x + 2

AC = 22

AB + BC = AC

(8x + 8) + (4x + 2) = 22

Expanding the parenthesis:

8x + 8 + 4x + 2 = 22

8x + 4x + 8 + 2 = 22

12x + 12 = 22

Subtracting 12 from both sides:

12x = 10

Dividing both sides by 12:

x = 10/12 = 1.2

x = 1.2

We're looking for BC. As we know,

BC = 4x + 2

Let's now put in x = 1.2 into this equation:

BC = 4x + 2

BC = 4 * 1.2 + 2

Since 4 * 1.2 is 4.8:

BC = 4.8 + 2

BC = 6.8

Answer: BC = 6.8

A rectangular paperboard measuring 29in long and 20in wide has a semicircle cut out of it, as shown below.
katen-ka-za [31]

Here, we are required to find the area of the paper board given after the semicircle is cut out of it

Area of the paper board thatremains is 423 in²

Length = 29 in

Width = 20 in

Area of a rectangle = length × width

= 29 in × 20 in

= 580 in²

Area of a semi circle = πr²/2

π = 3.14

r = diameter / 2 = 20 in / 2 = 10 in

Area of a semi circle = πr²/2

= 3.14 × (10 in)² / 2

= 3.14 × 100 in² / 2

= 314 in²/2

= 157 in²

The semicircle is cut out of the rectangle

Find the area of the paper board that remains after the semicircle is cut out of it by subtracting the area of a semi circle from the area of a rectangle

Area of the paper board that remains = Area of a rectangle - Area of a semi circle

= 580 in² - 157 in²

= 423 in²
