What is the value of x? (As a decimal )

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ksenya-84 [330]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

<h2>x = 42.9 m</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔNPM and ΔABM are similar (AAA). Therefore the corresponding sides are in proportion:

\dfrac{NM}{AM}=\dfrac{PM}{BM}

We have

NM=67.2m,\ AM=67.2m-32m=35.2m,\ PM=81.9m,\ BM=x

Substitute:

\dfrac{67.2}{35.2}=\dfrac{81.9}{x}          <em>cross multiply</em>

67.2x=(35.2)(81.9)[\tex][tex]67.2x=2882.88              <em>divide both sides by 67.2</em>

x=42.9\ m

Ber [7]

The expression that is equivalent to the given expression is -4x^-5

<h3>How to determine which expression is equivalent to the given expression?</h3>

The expression is given as:

-4x^{-5} x^{0}

Rewrite properly as

-4x^-5x^0

Express as products

-4x^-5 * x^0

The value of x^0 is 1

So, we have:

-4x^-5 * 1

Evaluate the product

-4x^-5

Hence, the expression that is equivalent to the given expression is -4x^-5

Find the centroid for an area defined by the equations y = x² + 3 and y = - (x – 2)² + 7
meriva
The points where the 2 graphs intersect is  where x = 0 and x = 2.

-                 2                                  2
x   =    INT               x dA     /    INT        dA
                  0                                  0

INT dA   = INT -x^2 + 4x + 3 - (x^2 + 3 ) dx  =      INT -2x^2  + 4x
               =   -2 x^3/3 + 2x^2
               =   2.667  between 0 and 2

xdA  =   -2x^3 + 4x^2  INT xdA  =   -x^4/2 + 4x^3/3 = 2.667

centroid = 2.667 / 2.667  = 1  (x = 1)

Following the recommended steps for solving equations, what should be your first step in solving the given equation?
Free_Kalibri [48]
To solve equations, you isolate the variable you are solving for on one side and everything else on the other side.

The first step to solving this equation is to combine like terms.
Combining like terms means to add up all terms that have the same variable(s) and exponent.

If no exponent is shown, then a 1 exponent is implied. The reason why we don't show a term raised to the first power is that it doesn't have any effect on the term.

I see three terms with the x variables. We can combine them. Why? Because they all have the same variable and exponent.

I'll rearrange the left-hand side to combine all the terms with the x variable.

Now we have -3 + 2x - 4x - 2x = -6
Combine all terms that have the x variable.

-3 + 2x - 4x - 2x = -6
-3 - 4x = -6

Now we have -3 - 4x = -6
What can we do now to isolate the x variable on the left-hand side?
For starters, we can add 3 to each side of the equation.
That way the -3 term will disappear.

-3 - 4x + 3 = -6 + 3
-4x = -3

Last step.
The x variable is being multiplied by the -4. If we reverse that operation
we can get the value of x.

-4x / -4 = 3 / -4
x = 3/-4 or x = -0.75
