This is the best I got Require to make 2 equations with the same repeating part and subtract them to eliminate the repeating part.
begin by letting x = 0.5555555................. (1)
To obtain the same repeating part after the decimal point need to multiply by 10
hence 10x = 5.555555........................(2)
It is important to obtain 2 equations in x, where the recurring part after the decimal points are exactly the same.
now subtract (1) from (2) to obtain fraction
(2) - (1) : <span>9x=5⇒x=<span><span>59</span></span></span>
Since the area of a triangle is in the form
area=0.5(base)(height)
height=base+7
let base=x
area=0.5(x)(7+x)
30=3.5x+0.5x^2
multiply the equation by 2
60=7x+x^2
subtract 60 from both sides
x^2+7x-60=0
(x-5)(x+12)=0
thus x=5 or x=-12 since we are only considering positive answers
x=-12 is rejected
so base=5 and height=5+7=12
Answer:
30 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
The first medal can be awarded in 6 different ways since any of the runners could have it. Once the first medal is awarded, the second medal can only be given to any of the 5 runners available.
So there are 6x5=30 different ways to award the medals
-1 1/2 is the answer. I'm making 20 characters.
So take 4x-2x=4 first combine like terms so now u have 2x=4. now you will isolate the x to find what it equals. divide 2 from both sides so u have x=2. did this help any?
