Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given a graph of a rectangle. The area of the shaded section is 63 square units. We are asked to find the value of x.
We can see from our given graph that shaded section forms a trapezoid, so we will use area of trapezoid formula to find the value of x.
, where, a and b represents the parallel sides of trapezoid and h represents height of trapezoid.
Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,
Upon dividing both sides of our equation by 3.5 we will get,
Let us subtract 7 from both sides of our equation.
Therefore, the value of x is 11 units.
Part 1) Finding x
Note the double tickmarks for segments XY and YZ. This indicates the segments are the same length, which leads to point Y being the midpoint of segment XZ.
Therefore, XZ is twice as long as XY
XZ = 2*( XY )
XZ = 2*( 2x-1 )
XZ = 4x - 2
We also know that XZ = 2(3x-4) = 6x-8. Let's equate 4x-2 and 6x-8 and solve for x
6x-8 = 4x-2
6x-4x = -2+8
2x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 3
<h3>Answer is 3</h3>
=====================================
Part 2) Finding the length of YZ
The resut of part 1 (x = 3) is plugged into the equation for XY to get
XY = 2*x-1
XY = 2*3-1
XY = 6-1
XY = 5
Segment XY is 5 units long. So is segment YZ as these two segments are the same length (aka congruent).
<h3>Answer: 5</h3>
=====================================
Part 3) Finding the length of segment XZ
The answer from the previous part was 5. This doules to 5*2 = 10
-----
A longer way to get the same answer is to plug x = 3 into the XZ equation and we get...
XZ = 2*(3x-4)
XZ = 2*(3*3-4)
XZ = 2*(9-4)
XZ = 2*5
XZ = 10
and we get the same answer
<h3>Answer: 10</h3>

Answer:
Approximate percent error = 15%
Step-by-Step Explanation:
Let the percentage of error be "e"
Anticipated sales = 2,500
Actual sales = 2,125
The percentage error "e" can be calculated as per the equation below:
2500*(1-e) = 2125
(1-e) = 2125/2500
1-e = 0.85
e = 1-0.85
e = 0.15
e = 15%
Approximate percentage error = 15%
So, you start by separating the equation into two inequalities and you get
4x+1 > -7 and 4x +1 < 5
Solve these inequalities and you get your final answer:
x > -2 and x < 1
(The equalities symbols are supposed to have the "or equal" line beneath them, I was just too lazy to put them.)
