Answer:

x=60

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for x, we must isolate x on one side of the equation.

The equation given is:

\frac{1}{6}x=10

1/6 and x are being multiplied. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 1/6

\frac{1}{6}x/\frac{1}{6}=10/\frac{1}{6}

When dividing by a fraction, you can multiply by the reciprocal of the fraction instead.

To find the reciprocal, flip the numerator and denominator.

1/6 ⇒ flip top number and bottom number ⇒ 6/1=6

Replace the division by 1/6 with multiplication by 6.

\frac{1}{6}x * 6=10*6

x= 10 *6

x=60

The solution to this equation is x=60

True or false. the points on a line can be paired one to one with real mumbers
frosja888 [35]
This is true, because there is an infinite amount of real numbers in both, and they are both countably infinite (so these infinities are equal). Hope this helps!

Answer:
1/625

Explanation:
In case of multiplication of numbers with same base, we add the powers.
This means that:
a^x * a^y = a^(x+y)

Applying this to the given, we will find that:
(5^-1) * (5^-3) = 5^(-1-3)
                      = 5^-4
                     = 1/625

Hope this helps :)

Simplify.<br> (w^2 + 3w)-(w^2+5w-4<br><br> 8w-4<br> 2w^2 +8w-4<br> -2w+4<br> -2w
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

-2w + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Remove parenthesis because they make life semi-confusing but remember to distribute the negative: w^2 + 3w -w^2 - 5w + 4

Combine like terms: w^2 - w^2 cancel out ; 3w - 5w = -2w ; 4

-2w + 4

In the given figure PQ is a transversal intersecting lines AB and CD. Find the measures of angles x and y. Hence prove AB//CD.​
tekilochka [14]

<u>Explanation</u><u>:</u>

From the given figure ,

AB || CD

PQ is a transversal

Given angles are 50° and 130°

50° and x are linear pair

⇛ 50°+x = 180°

⇛ x = 180°-50°

⇛ x = 130°

Therefore, "x" = 130°

and

130° and y are vertically opposite angles which are equal.

⇛ "y" = 130°

Therefore, y = 130°

<u>Additional</u><u> </u><u>comment</u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  1. If two parallel lines Intersected by a transversal then
  2. Corresponding angles are equal.
  3. Vertically Opposite angles are equal.
  4. The sum of two adjacent angles is equal to 180° then they are called Linear Pair.
