The little lines on each side of the rhombus mean that all the sides are the same length.
We can set line LM and MN equal to solve for X, then we can solve the length of a side.
3x-3 = x+7
Add 3 to each side:
3x = x +10
Subtract x from each side:
2x = 10
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 10/2
x = 5
Now we have the value for x, replace x in one of the side formulas:
x +7 = 5+7 = 12
Each side = 12 units.
The perimeter would be 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 = 48 units.
Answer:
11.7
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply RS by the scale factor to get R'S'
Answer:
2x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number
twice a number
2x
3 more than
2x+3
It is nonlinear because X is being raised to the second power
Answer:
x = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^3 = 1/8
Take the cube root of each side
x^3 ^ (1/3) = (1/8)^ (1/3)
Rewriting 8 as 2^3
x^3 ^ (1/3) = (1/2^3)^ (1/3)
x = 1/2
