Find x.______________a0

Mathematics
1 answer:
velikii [3]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we find x, we need to set up this triangle a little more. We need to find the triangle's altitude before we can solve for x. We will use the heartbeat method to find the altitude.

Let altitude = y; solve for y:

\frac{2}{y}=\frac{y}{6}

y^2=12

y=\sqrt{12}

y=2\sqrt{3}

Now that we know the altitude, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse (x).

a^2+b^2=c^2

2^2+(2\sqrt{3})^2=c^2

4+12=c^2

c^2=16

c=4

Since c and x are the same; c is just the hypotenuse in the Pythagorean Theorem.

x=4

What is the missing constant term in the perfect square that starts with x^2-12x
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Essentially, we are trying to find the missing constant term of (x - a)^2 (remember that we are subtracting a due to the negative sign in front of the second term). Let's expand this to see what we can work with:

(x - a)^2

  • Set up

x^2 - ax - ax + a^2 = x^2 - 2ax + a^2

  • FOIL and simplify

Now, we know the second term is 12x, so let's set the second term in the polynomial we just found equal to 12x:

2ax = 12x

  • Set up

2a = 12

  • Divide both sides of the equation by x

a = 6

  • Divide both sides of the equation by 2

We have found a = 6. We know the missing constant term is a^2, according to the polynomial we found earlier. Thus, the missing term is:

a^2 \Rightarrow 6^2 = 36


The missing constant term is 36.

Solve the equation below.
never [62]

Answer:

( c ) x = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

3(17x - 6.5) = 108

divide both side of the equation by 3...

17x - 6.5 = 36

17x = 36 + 6.5

17x =  42.5

x = 2.5

hence the value of x is 2.5...

2 1/3 fills 3 1/2 dispensers how many fill one
Y_Kistochka [10]

2/3 (0.666) quantities fills one dispenser.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; It is given that 2 1/3 amount of some liquid fills up 3 1/2 dispensers. First, we must convert the mixed fractions into improper fractions. To do that we multiply the number with the denominator and add with it the numerator whereas the denominator remains the same. To convert the fraction

2 1/3 we multiply the 2 with the 3 and add it with 1 while denominator remains 3, so 2 1/3 becomes 7/3. Similarly the fraction 3 1/2 converts into 7/2.

Step 2; So we have 7/3 quantities of liquid fills 7/2 dispensers. We multiply both sides by 2/7 so that the right side of the equation becomes 1 and the left side of the equation indicates the amount of liquid in 1 dispenser.

7/3 * 2/7 = 7/2 * 2/7 , 14/21 = 1 dispenser. So 14/21 = 2/3. So 2/3 or 0.666 quantity of liquid fills one dispenser.
