You have to start with the left triangle and find the side lengths. Since it is a 45-45-90, both sides are the same. Rule for this is hyp= sqrt2 * leg
Since hyp = 6sqrt2, the leg is 6.
The leg is also the hypotenuse of the triangle on the right side.
x is the side across from the hypotenuse and it is the short leg so x = (1/2)6
x = 3
Hi there!
Using compatible numbers it would be:
12 ÷ 2 = 6.
Now when you divide it, the answer would be close to 6.
So, 12 ÷ 2 = 6 would be using compatible numbers.
Hope this helps ;)
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2-x)+13=2x+3
distribute the 4.
8 - 4x + 13 = 2x + 3
combine like terms.
21 - 4x = 2x + 3
18 = 6x
divide by 6.
x = 3
check.
4(2 - 3) + 13 = 2(3) + 3
4(-1) + 13 = 6 + 3
-4 + 13 = 9
9 = 9
correct!
