Hello!

The perimeter is all of the sides added up. We can write this equation below.

42+30+x=131

We subtract 30 and 42 from both sides.

x=131-30-42
x=131-72
x=59

Therefore, we have x=59.

I hope this helps!

Write the equation: x + 42 + 30 = 131

Combine like terms: x + 72 = 131

Subtract 72 from both sides: x = 59

How do i solve for x? *you have to show work*

1) Factor the equation first:

$2e^{2x} + 4xe^{2x} = 0$
$e^{2x}(2 + 4x) = 0$

So either $e^{2x} = 0$ or $2 + 4x = 0$ . But $e^{2x} = 0$ can never equal 0! So, we only need to solve for the second equation:

$2 + 4x = 0$
$\bf x = {-\frac{1}{2}}$

2) First, single out the term with the exponent:

$2 + 3(4^{2x - 1}) = 43$
$3(4^{2x - 1}) = 41$
$4^{2x - 1} = \frac{41}{3}$

Now, taking the log base 4 of each side gives us

$2x - 1 = \log_4 \frac{41}{3}$

and we can now solve for x:

$2x - 1 = \log_4 \frac{41}{3}$
$2x = 1 + \log_4 \frac{41}{3}$
$2x = \log_4 4 + \log_4 \frac{41}{3}$
$2x = \log_4 \frac{164}{3}$
$x = \frac{1}{2} \log_4 \frac{164}{3}$
$x = \log_4 \sqrt \frac{164}{3}$
$\bf x = \log_4 2 \sqrt \frac{41}{3}$

Answer:

∠ STR = 64°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since RS = ST then the triangle is isosceles and the base angles are congruent, that is

∠ STR = ∠ SRT , then

∠ STR = $\frac{180-52}{2}$ = $\frac{128}{2}$ = 64°

How can I convert a fraction into a decimal and a decimal into a fraction?

gogolik [260]

Find a number you can multiply by the bottom of the fraction to make it 10, 100, or 1000 and multiple both top and bottom by that number then write down just the top number putting the decimal point in the correct spot.
