Answer:

x=2.65

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to figure out how much the length of the sides is changing between the equations. In this case it is changing by a factor of 2.5. Now we need to work backwards. First use this equation:

4x-5*2.5=14

This is because whatever the length of the side with x is, will be 14/2.5. So divide both sides by 2.5:

4x-5=5.6

Next, add 5 to both sides:

4x=10.6

Then divide both sides by 4:

x=2.65

Can someone help? Thanks! :)

Answer:

<em>The second figure ( rectangle ) has a longer length of it's diagonal comparative to the first figure ( square )</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We can't confirm the length of these diagonals based on the appearance of the figure, so let us apply Pythagorean Theorem;

This diagonal divides each figure ( square + rectangle ) into two congruent, right angle triangles ⇒ from which we may apply Pythagorean Theorem, where the diagonal acts as the hypotenuse;

5^2 + 5^2 = x^2 ⇒ x is the length of the diagonal,

25 + 25 = x^2,

x^2 = 50,

x = √50

Now the same procedure can be applied to this other quadrilateral;

3^2 + 7^2 = x^2 ⇒ x is the length of the diagonal,

9 + 49 = x^2,

x^2 = 58,

x = √58

<em>Therefore the second figure ( rectangle ) has a longer length of it's diagonal comparative to the first figure ( square )</em>

Liz simplified the expression 5x - 3(4 - x) and got 2x -12. Did she simplify the expression correctly? Explain how you know.
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Incorrect. She forgot to change the sign while distributing.

5x - 3(4-x) = 5x - 12 + 3x = 8x - 12

A triangle has angle measurements of 61°, 84°, and 35°. is this triangle isosceles?
ch4aika [34]

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation:

This is not an isosceles triangle because there are different angle measurements. The rule of an isosceles triangle is that it must always have two equal sides and angles.

a used truck for $4,500 he made an agreement with the dealer to put $1,500 and make payments of 350 for the next 10 months that
Aneli [31]
Ist amount paid = $1500
Making $350 for 10 months = 10*350 = $3500
Total amount paid  = 1500 + 3500 = 5000
So an amount of $5000 was paid to cover the cost of $4500 within the ten month period.
I = PRT
Interest, I = 5000 - 4500 = 500Time, t = 10 months = 10/12 = (5/6) year.Principal P = 4500
R = I /(PT)  R = 500 / (4500*5/6)
R = (500*6) / (4500*5)
R = 0.1333..
R ≈ 13.33 %  per annum.
