Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Angle sum property of triangle states that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°</em>
So,
Answer:
f(5) = 6(5 - 2) = 6(3) = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
You're asked to "evaluate" f(x)=6(x-2) when x = 5.
To do this, replace both instances of x with 5: f(5) = 6(5 - 2) = 6(3) = 18
Answer:
18 and 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = first (smaller) number
Let y = second (larger) number
Sum of two numbers is 45:
⇒ x + y = 45
The greater number is 9 more than the other number:
⇒ y = x + 9
Substitute y = x + 9 into x + y = 45 and solve for x:
⇒ x + (x + 9) = 45
⇒ 2x + 9 = 45
⇒ 2x = 36
⇒ x = 18
Substitute found value for x into y = x + 9 and solve for y:
⇒ y = 18 + 9
⇒ y = 27
Therefore, the two numbers are 18 and 27
Answer:
52
Step-by-step explanation:
given that the number is a
The expression for Ten less than 5 times the value of a number is given by
5a - 10
10 times the quantity of 12 more than one-fourth of the number.
a/4 is one-fourth of number
12 more than one-fourth of the number
a/4 + 12
expression for 10 times the quantity of 12 more than one-fourth of the number. is given by
10(a/4 + 12) = 10a/4 + 12*10 = 2.5a + 120
Given that the above two expression are equal
equating them we have
5a - 10 = 2.5a + 120
adding 10 both sides
=>5a - 10+ 10 = 2.5a + 120 + 10
=> 5a = 2.5a + 130
subtracting 2.5a from both sides
=> 5a - 2.5a = 2.5a + 130 - 2.5a
=> 2.5a = 130
dividing both side by 2.5
=> a = 130/2.5 = 52
Thus, value of a is 52
A ) Length = 5 - 2 x
Width = 3 - 2 x
The area of the bottom:
A = L x W = ( 5 - 2 x ) ( 3 - 2 x ) = 15 - 10 x - 6 x + 4 x² =
= 4 x² - 16 x + 15
b ) 4 x² - 16 x + 15 = 10
4 x² - 16 x + 5 = 0
x = (16 - √(256 - 80))/ 8 = ( 16 - 13.266 ) / 2
x = 0.34 in
