The value of x in the equation listed above

Mathematics
1 answer:
matrenka [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The pair of angles given are alternate angles (they form a 'Z' shape). Alternate angles are always equal to each other. From this, we can get the equation:

14x - 13 = 8x + 5

Collect like terms,

6x - 13 = 5

6x = 18

x = 3

Hope this helped!! Ask me if there's any part of the working you don't understand :)

A chemical company makes two brands of antifreeze. The first brand is 20% pure antifreeze, and the second brand is 70% pure anti
andre [41]

Answer:

First brand of antifreeze: 21 gallons

Second brand of antifreeze: 9 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call A the amount of  first brand of antifreeze. 20% pure antifreeze

Let's call B the amount of second brand of antifreeze. 70% pure antifreeze

The resulting mixture should have 35% pure antifreeze, and 30 gallons.

Then we know that the total amount of mixture will be:

A + B = 30

Then the total amount of pure antifreeze in the mixture will be:

0.2A + 0.7B = 0.35 * 30

0.2A + 0.7B = 10.5

Then we have two equations and two unknowns so we solve the system of equations. Multiply the first equation by -0.7 and add it to the second equation:

-0.7A -0.7B = -0.7*30

-0.7A -0.7B = -21

-0.7A -0.7B = -21

               +

0.2A + 0.7B = 10.5

--------------------------------------

-0.5A = -10.5

A = \frac{-10.5}{-0.5}

A = 21\ gallons

We substitute the value of A into one of the two equations and solve for B.

21 + B = 30

B = 9\ gallons

If x-y =8 find the value of y when x=3
DedPeter [7]
Answer: y = -5

Substitute in 3 for x.
x - y = 8                            Substitution
3 - y = 8                            Subtract 3 from both sides
-y = 5                                Divide by -1 to both sides
y = -5                                Answer!

You can also check your work.
x - y = 8       
3 - (-5) = 8                  
3 + 5 = 8                        
8 = 8

A scale drawing of a square has a side length of 6 millimeters. The drawing has a scale of 1 mm : 7 km. Find the actual perimete
zvonat [6]

Answer:

The real perimeter is:

P= 24 mm *\frac{7 km}{1mm}= 168 km

And the area would be:

P = 36mm^2 *\frac{(7km)^2}{(1mm)^2} = 1764 km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know one side of a square given 6mm.

We can begin calculating the perimeter for the scale figure with this formula:

P = 4x = 4*6 mm =24 mm

The area for this case is given by:

A = x^2 = 6mm^2 = 36 mm^2

And we know that the drawing has a scale of 1 mm : 7 km and if we convert the perimeter to km we got:

P= 24 mm *\frac{7 km}{1mm}= 168 km

And the area would be:

P = 36mm^2 *\frac{(7km)^2}{(1mm)^2} = 1764 km^2

An acting award is a square pyramid with a base that measures 6 inches on each side. The slant height is 8 inches. What is the s
kupik [55]

Answer:

The surface area of the award is 132\ in^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of the square pyramid is equal to the area of the square base plus the area of its four lateral triangular faces

so

SA=6^{2}+4[\frac{1}{2}(6)(8)]=132\ in^{2}
