Picture 1:

6 + 8 = 14

Smaller Triangle Length - 2(14) - 2 = 26

Larger Triangle Length - 3(14) = 52

Length In Total - 78

x = 14

2nd Picture:

The scale is times 3

So the smaller image is 13 in length (13 * 3 = 39)

To make this possible: 23 - 10 = 13

x = 23

3rd Picture:

9 + 6 = 15

Larger Triangle: 2(15) + 4 = 34

Smaller Triangle: (15) + 4 = 19

Total Length - 53

x = 15

Hope This Helps!

8/(2x -2) = 14/(3x)

Cross multiply

24x = 28x - 28

Simplify. Isolate the x

24x (-28x) = 28x (-28x) - 28

24x - 28x = -28

-4x = -28

-4x/-4 = -28/-4

x = 6

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(x-10)/5 = 39/15

Cross multiply

15(x - 10) = 39(5)

Simplify

15x - 150 = 195

Isolate the x

15x - 150 (+150) = 195 (+150)

15x = 345

15x/15 = 345/15

x = 23

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(x + 4)/6 = (2x + 4)/9

Multiply 6 to both sides & 9 to both sides

9(x + 4) = 6(2x + 4)

Distribute 9 to x and 4, and 6 to 2x and 4

9x + 36 = 12x + 24

Isolate the x.

9x (-12x) + 36 (-36) = 12x (-12x) + 24 (-36)

9x - 12x = 24 - 36

-3x = -12

Isolate the x. divide -3 from both sides

-3x/-3 = -12/-3

x = -12/-3

x = 4

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

hope this helps

In list T, consists of 30 positive decimals. None of which are integers. The sum of the 30 decimals is S. The estimated sum of t
Masteriza [31]

Answer: E - S = (-16 and 6)

Step-by-step explanation:1/3 of the 30 decimals in T have an even tenths digit, it follows that 1/3*(30)=10 decimals in T have an even tenths digit.

Hence: Te =list of 10 decimals

Se = sum of all 10 decimals in Te

Ee =estimated sum of all 10 decimals in Te after rounding up.

Remaining 20 decimals in T all have an odd tenths digits.

To =list of this 20 decimals

So = sum of all 20 decimals in To

Eo = estimated sum of 20 decimals in To

Hence,

E = Ee + Eo and S =Se +So, hence:

E-S, =(Ee+Eo) - (Se+So) =(Ee-Se) +(Eo-So)

Ee-Se >10 (0.1)=1

S=10(1.8)+20(1.9) =18+38=56

E=10(2)+20(1)=40

E-S =40-56=-16.

AlsoS=10(1.2)+20(1.1)=34

E=10(2)+20(1)=40

E-S=40-34=6

Subtract 6x 2 −7x−2 from 6x^{2}-2x+6
ki77a [65]

Answer:

5x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

The from is the key word

That means the second term is first

6x^2 -2x +6 - (6x^2 -7x -2)

Distribute the minus sign

6x^2 -2x +6 - 6x^2 +7x +2

Combine like terms

5x+8
