Answer:

x=19, DE=84, EF=36

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the total value of DF is 120, DE and EF must add up to 120. Therefore:

4x+8+2x-2=120

Combine like terms:

6x+6=120

Divide both sides by 6:

x+1=20

Subtract 1 from both sides:

x=19

This means that DE is 4(19)+8=84, and EF is 2(19)-2=36.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

19, 84 and 36

Step-by-step explanation:

DF=120

DF=DE+EF

DE=4x+8

EF=2x-2

4x+8+2x-2=120
6x+6=120
6x=114
x=114/6
x=19
DE=4x+8= 4*19+8= 84
EF=2x-2= 2*19-2= 36

Answer:

10 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

37 ÷ 4 = 9.25

Because this is dealing with people, not numbers, there can't be a remaining 0.25 person. There's one extra person that doesn't cleanly fit into the 9 other cars, so a tenth car is needed for that person.

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

The true statement is:

A) Over half of the bike owners live near a pool.

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached table

According to the data of the table, we will check which statement is true.

A) Over half of the bike owners live near a pool.

The number of the bike owners = 8 + 7 = 15

The bike owners live near a pool = 8

The percentage of the bike owners live near a pool to all the bike owners= 8/15 = 0.533 > 0.5

The statement is true.

B) Less than 55% of his classmates live near a pool.

The number of classmates = 30

The number of classmates live near a pool = 8 + 10 = 18

The number of classmates live near a pool to all

classmates = 18/30 = 0.6 = 60% > 55%

The statement is wrong.

C) About 50% of his classmates don't live near a pool.

Don't live near a pool = live near a pool

So, the same explanation of statement B

The statement is wrong.

D) 2/3 of his classmates that live near a pool don't own a bike.

The number of classmates live near a pool = 8 + 10 = 18

The number of classmates live near a pool and don't own a bike = 10

The percentage of classmates live near a pool and don't own a bike to classmates live near a pool = 10/18 = 0.556 < 2/3

The statement is wrong.

Short Answer: n = 5
The chords bear the relationship of (in this case)

18*(n + 1) = 9 * (n +7) Remove the brackets
18n + 18 = 9n + 63 Subtract 9n from both sides.
18n - 9n + 18 = 63
9n + 18 = 63 Subtract 18 from both sides.
9n = 63 - 18
9n = 45 Divide by 9
n = 45/9
n = 5 <<<<<<<< Answer

slega [8]

Answer:

y=3x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Your equation should start off as y=mx+b. You must solve for m and b, although they already give you m and b. m is the slope, which here is 3 and your y is 1. Making your equation, y=3x+1.
