Answer: x = 10;

Both the angles are congruent, therefore;

8x - 12 = 6x + 8

=> Now subtract 6x from each side of "="

2x - 12 = 8

=> Add 12 to each side;

2x = 20

=> Lastly divide each side by 2;

<u>x = 10</u>

Hope this helps!

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image provided, it shows that both 8x - 12 would equal 6x + 8 because their angles are the same due to their placement. With that it turns into 8x - 12 = 6x + 8. Then you can simplify to 2x = 20 by adding 12 to both sides, and subtracting 6x. Then 20 divided by 2 to get x by itself equaling 10.

Question 12 (1 point) Given P(A) 0.34, P(A and B) 0.27, P(A or B) 0.44, what is P(B)? Answer in decimal form. Round to 2 decimal
Tema [17]

Answer:  The required probability of event B is P(B) = 0.37.

Step-by-step explanation:  For two events A and B, we are given the following probabilities :

P(A) = 0.34,    P(A ∩ B) = 0.27   and   P(A ∪ B) = 0.44.

We are to find the probability of event B, P(B) = ?

From the laws of probability, we have

P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\\\\Rightarrow 0.44=0.34+P(B)-0.27\\\\\Rightarrow 0.44=0.07+P(B)\\\\\Rightarrow P(B)=0.44-0.07\\\\\Rightarrow P(B)=0.37.

Thus, the required probability of event B is P(B) = 0.37.

An umbrella is made by stitching 10 triangular pieces of clothes of 2 different colors, each piece measuring 9 cm, 40 cm and 41
malfutka [58]

Answer:

See below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangular piece of cloth is a right triangle because 41^2 = 40^2 + 9^2 (By the Pythagoras theorem).

So the area of one piece = 1/2 * 9 * 40  cm^2.

The total amount of cloth  required for one umbrella = 10 * 1/2 * 9 * 40

= 1800 cm^2.

The total cost =  1800 * 0.25 = Rs 450.
