The segment of length x bisects the chord of length 19.2.
The diameter is 24, so the radius is 12.
You have a right triangle with hypotenuse 12, and one leg 19.2/2 = 9.6
9.6^2 + x^2 = 12^2
92.16 + x^2 = 144
x^2 = 51.84
x = 7.2
Answer:
x = 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
5x - 2(x + 1) = 1/4
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
- <u>Distribute -2:</u> 5x - 2x - 2 = 1/4
- <u>Combine like terms:</u> 3x - 2 = 1/4
- <u>Add 2 to both sides:</u> 3x = 9/4
- <u>Divide both sides by 3:</u> x = 3/4
Step 3: Check
<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>
5(3/4) - 2(3/4 + 1) = 1/4
15/4 - 2(7/4) = 1/4
15/4 - 14/4 = 1/4
1/4 = 1/4
Answer:
$1000.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent number of years.
We have been given that Tommy purchased a riding lawnmower with an original value of $2,500. The value of the riding lawnmower decreases by $300 per year. We are asked to find the value of lawnmower after 5 years.
Since the value of the riding lawnmower decreases by $300 per year, so value of lawnmower decrease in 5 years would be 5 times $300.
The final value of lawnmower would be initial value minus value decreased in 5 years.
Therefore, the value of lawnmower after years would be $1000.
