Answer:

x=14

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3x-4)=5x+6

first get rid of the parentheses by multiplying the  2

6x-8 = 5x+6

put like terms on one side of the equation. Start with the 5x, move it to the left side

(6x-8)-5x = (5x+6)-5x

x-8 = 6


Again, put like terms on one side of the equation. Move the 8 to the right side

(x-8)+8 = 6+8

=> x = 14


B)

4x - 3 = 2(x-1)

Start again by getting rid of the parentheses to make it a clean equation... aka distribute the 2:

4x-3 = 2x - 2

Move the like terms to one side of the equation. Start with x.. move 2x to the left:

(4x-3)-2x = (2x-2)-2x

=> 2x-3 = -2

Move the like terms to one side of the equation.Now move the -3 to the other side:

(2x-3)+3 = -2+3

=> 2x=1

Lastly, divide by 2 on both sides to find out what x is:

(2x)/2=1/2

=> x = 1/2


..so no, Charlie was incorrect.

Answer:

x=14

In the second line, he changed the sign on the 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3x-4) = 5x+6

Distribute the 2

6x-8 = 5x+6

Subtract 5x from each side

6x-5x -8 = 5x-5x+6

Add 8 to each side

x-8+8 = 6+8

x=14


b.  4x-3 = 2(x-1)

Distribute

4x-3 =2x-2    He changed the sign on the 2

Subtract 2x from each side

4x-2x -3 = 2x-2x-2

2x-3 =-2

Add 3 to each side

2x-3+3 =-2+3

2x =1

Divide by 2

2x/2 =1/2

x=1/2

Find the area of the following ellipse (round to nearest tenth).
goblinko [34]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{A=60\pi cm^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of an area of a elipse:

A=\pi ab

We have:

2a=10cm\to a=5cm\\\\2b=24cm\to b=12cm

Substitute:

A=\pi\dot5\cdot12=60\pi(cm^2)

If arc EF = 151°, find mEDF.
user100 [1]
There is a theorem that says that this angle (formed by thre points on the circumference) is half such arc called EF.

We can deduct it as well.

1) Call O the center of the circle. The central angle (EOF) = arc EF = 151°

2) Draw a chord from F to D and other chord from D to E.

You have constructed two triangles, FOD and DOE.

3) Triangle FOD has two sides equals (because both are the radius of the circcle). Then, this is an isosceles triangle and it has two angles of the same measure. Call this measure a.

4) Triangle DOE is also isosceles, for the same reason explained in the poiint 3. Call the measure of its equal angles b.

5) The sum of the angles of the two triangles is 180° + 180 ° = 360°.

This is a + a + b + b + (360 - central angle) = 360°

=> 2a + 2b = central angle
=> 2(a+b) = cantral angle
=> (a+b) = central angle / 2 = 151° / 2 =71.5°

(a+b) is the angle that you are looking for.

Then the answer is 71.5°

To prove part of the triangle midsegment theorem using the diagram, which statement must be shown
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

The length of GH is half the length of KL.

Full question...

To prove part of the triangle midsegment theorem using the diagram, which statement must be shown?

The length of JK equals the length of JL.

The length of GH is half the length of KL.

The slope of JK equals the slope of JL.

The slope of GH is half the slope of KL.

So once again the answer is the second one: The length of GH is half the length of KL.
