Solve for x. 18x - 12 16x +8 x = [?]

Mathematics

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.

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

  230.9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The side ratios of a 30°-60°-90° triangle are 1 : √3 : 2

In ∆ABC, BC = AB/√3 ≈ 115.47 ft

In ∆ABD, BD = AB√3 ≈ 346.41 ft

Then the length CD is ...

  346.41 ft -115.47 ft = 230.94 ft

The distance CD is about 230.9 ft.

How to solve: a parade traveled 4 miles in 2 hours. how far did tge parade travel per minute?
jek_recluse [69]

There's a really easy way to convert any units to other units.

Right now, we have the fraction  (4 miles) / (2 hours).

We want to find a fraction that's exactly equal to that one,
but has the units of  (miles/minute)  or maybe  (feet/minute).

Just take the original fraction, and multiply it by some other
fractions.

Each fraction you multiply it by must have the value of ' 1 ' so
you don't change the value of the original fraction.  But it can
have different units, that cancel with other units to eventually
give you the units you want.

      (4 miles / 2 hours) times (1 hour / 60 minutes)

The second fraction is equal to ' 1 ', because the top and the bottom
have the same value ...  1 hour is the same thing as  60 minutes.

Multiply the fractions:  (4 miles x 1 hour) / (2 hour x 60 minutes)

Now you can cancel 'hour' from the top and the bottom, and you have

             (4 miles x 1) / (2 x 60 minutes)

               = (4 miles) / (120 minutes) 

               =          (4 / 120) mile/minute = 0.0333... mile / minute .

Let's do it again, go a little farther, and get an answer that
might mean more and feel more like an answer. 

   (4 miles) / (2 hours) x (5280 feet / mile) x (1 hour / 60 minutes)

The 2nd and 3rd fractions both have the value of ' 1 ', because
the top is equal to the bottom. 

Multiply all three fractions: 

     (4 miles x 5280 feet x 1 hour) / (2 hours x 1 mile x 60 minutes)

You can cancel both 'mile' and 'hour' out of the top and bottom,
and look what you have left:

     (4 x 5280 feet x 1) / (2 x 1 x 60 minutes)

  =  (4 x 5280) / (2 x 60)  feet / minutes

  =  (21,120 / 120)  feet/minute   =    176 feet per minute
