2 answers:

8 0

Expression: (3x + 5) - (x + 2)
= (3x + 5) - 1 (x + 2) *we will be distributing -1 to x and 2.
= 3x + 5 - x - 2
= 3x - x + 5 - 2 (we have combined like terms)
= 2x + 3

So, in conclusion, the answer and expression for this problem is: 2x + 3.

2x+3

First, subtract “x” from “3x” to get 2x. Then, subtract 5-2. You should end up with an answer of 2x+3!

It is known that Ray AP bisects angle CAT. If m<CAT = 5x+17 and m<PAT = 3x-4, then determine the value of x.

Sonja [21]

Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, ray Ray AP bisects angle CAT. It means,

$\angle CAT=\angle CAP+\angle PAT$

Also, $\angle CAP = \angle PAT$

It gives, $\angle CAT=2\angle PAT$

ATQ,

$\angle CAT = 5x+17 \ \text{and}\ \text{PAT}=3x-4$

So,

$5x+17=2(3x-4)\\\\5x+17=6x-8$

Taking like terms together,

$5x-6x=-8-17\\\\-x=-25\\\\x=25$

So, the value of x is 25.

Jessica was given the area and the length of the base of a triangle. A = 17.5 units, b = 5 units. She solved the formula for are

pychu [463]

Answer:

She messed up the equation, A= B x h, she changed it midway, and also, you need to add the one half to make the equation valid

Step-by-step explanation:

A=1/2 x b xh

17.5 = 1/2 x 5 x h

35=5h (multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of one half)

35/5 = 5h/5

7=h

The height of the triangle is 7 units
