babymother [125]4 years ago

Answer: x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer begins with the distributive property, multiplying positive 2 times the elements in parenthesis.

5x - (2)(2x - 1) = 6

5x - 4x - 2 = 6

1x = 6 + 2

x = 8

Given: 4ABC, and BP is parallel to AC.<br> Prove: m21 + m22 + m23 = 180
Charra [1.4K]

Mathematical proofs are used to prove or disprove mathematical statements.

<h3>Mathematical theorems </h3>

The theorems to use are:

  • The sum of angles on a straight line is 180 degrees
  • Alternate angles are congruent

<h3>The proof</h3>

From the question, we have: \triangle ABC

This means that, ABC is a triangle

Also, we have:

BP || AC

This means that lines BP and AC are parallel

So, the following angles are congruent by alternate angle theorem

  • \angle 5 \cong \angle 3.
  • \angle 4 \cong \angle 2

The angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees.

So, we have:

\angle 4 + \angle 1 + \angle 5 = 180

By substitution, the above equation becomes

\angle 2 + \angle 1 + \angle 3 = 180

Rewrite the equation as:

\angle 1 + \angle 2 + \angle 3 = 180

Hence, the statement that \angle 1 + \angle 2 + \angle 3 = 180 has been proved

A price increases 5% due to inflation and is then reduced 10% for a sale. Express the final price as a function of the original
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

0.945p

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price be p.

Increased price due to inflation = 5% of p    

                                                     = 0.05 p

Price after increased 5% = p + 0.05p = 1.05p

Reduced price for a sale = 10% of (1.05p)

                                         = 0.1 × 1.05p

                                         =  0.105p

Price after reduction 10% = 1.05p – 0.105p = 0.945p

Hence the final price is 0.945p.

Cindy had 13 stickers. She bought 18 stickers from a store in the mall and got 5 stickers for her birthday. Then Cindy gave 8 of
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

18 stickers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cindy buys 18 more stickers in the start. This results in 13+18= 31 stickers. She then gets five for her birthday. 31+5=36 so she now has 36 stickers but she then gives eight away which means she has 36-8=28 stickers. She uses ten stickers to decorate so Cindy has 28-10=18 stickers left
