Answer:

x = 3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

ABC is a right angled triangle.

Therefore, by Pythagoras theorem:

{(10 - x)}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}  +  {5}^{2} \\ 100 - 20x +  {x}^{2}   =  {x}^{2}  + 25 \\ 100 - 20x = 25 \\  - 20x = 25 - 100 \\  - 20x =  - 75 \\ x =  \frac{ - 75}{ - 20}  \\   \:  \: \huge \red { \boxed{x = 3.75}}

−5.5x + 0.46 = −3.94
aliina [53]

Answer:

x= 0.78 (rounded to the hundredth)

Step-by-step explanation:

-5.5x + 0.46 = -3.94

You need to isolate x so the easiest thing to do is subtract 0.46 and move it to the other side of the equal sign.

-5.5x= -3.84 - 0.46

-5.5x = -4.3

divide -5.5 to get x alone

x= -4.3/-5.5

x= 0.78
