Consider the equation below -2(bx -5 ) =16

Mathematics
1 answer:
gladu [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

bx = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2(bx - 5) = 16

- 2bx + 10 = 16

- 2bx + 10 - 10 = 16 - 10

- 2bx = 6

- 2bx ÷ - 2 = 6 ÷ - 2

bx = - 3

What is the value of x? assume that the line is tangent to the circle
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

70°

Step-by-step explanation:

Connect the center of the circle with endpoints of the chord. Let the center of the circle be point O and endpoints of the chord be points A (let point A lie on the tangent line too)and B.

From the figure, central angle AOB has the measure of 220°.

Consider triangle AOB. This triangle is isosceles triangle because OA and OB are both radii. In this triangle the measure of angle AOB is 360° - 220° = 140°.

Angles OAB and OBA are angles adjacent to the base AB, so they are congruent. The sum of the measures of all interior angles in triangle is always 180°, so

m∠OAB + m∠OBA + m∠AOB = 180°

m∠OAB = m∠OBA = 1/2 (180° - 140°)

m∠OAB = 20°

Since drawn line is tangent line, then OA is perpendicular to this tangent line and

x° = 90° - 20°

x° = 70°

4. Find x if PQ = RS,<br> PQ = 9x - 7, and RS = 29.
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Because we know that PQ = RS, we can use the transitive property to replace PQ in the first equation with 29:

9x-7=29

1) Add 7 to both sides:

9x=36

2) divide by 9 on both sides:

x=4
