Answer:
x = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding sides are proportional.
BE/CD = AE/AD
20/(3x+8) = (x-1)/(x-1+27)
20(x+26) = (3x+8)(x -1)
In standard form, this is ...
3x^2 -15x -528 = 0
x^2 -5x -176 = 0 . . . . . . divide by 3
(x -16)(x +11) = 0 . . . . . . . factor
x = 16
__
This is the positive value that makes the product zero. x=-11 will also make the product 0, but gives negative segment lengths in the geometry. It is an extraneous solution.
Answer:
15%
Step-by-step explanation:
we call the original price 100% and to find the discount amount :
Multiply 100 by $476 then divide by $560
100 × $476 ÷ $560 = 85
$476 is 85% of the original price therefore the amount of discount as in percentage is 100 - 85 = 15%
I assume you're looking for the sum.
I would use the null property to eliminate 0
34+0+18+26
=34+18+26
then use commutativity to rearrange
=34+26 + 18
Add 34+26=60
=60+18
=78
Answer:
Third graph down
Step-by-step explanation:
2x -6 ≥ 6(x-2)+8
Distribute
2x - 6≥6x -12+8
Combine like terms
2x - 6≥6x -4
Subtract 2x from each side
2x-6-2x ≥6x-2x-4
-6 ≥4x-12
Add 4 to each side
-6+4 ≥4x-4+4
-2 ≥4x
Divide by 4
-2/4 ≥4x/4
-1/2≥x
Closed circle at -1/2
