The value of x is 5/8.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
Given,
- The lines PQ and RS are parallel to each other.
- slope of PQ= x-1/4
- slope of RS = 3/8
The slopes of parallel lines are equal.
slope of PQ = slope of RS
⇒ x-1/4 = 3/8
⇒ (4x-1)/4 = 3/8
⇒ 8(4x-1) = 4(3)
⇒ 32x-8 = 12
⇒ 32x = 20
x = 20/32
x = 5/8
The area of a regular polygon<span> is given by the formula which is expressed as:
</span>area = (½)(apothem<span>)(perimeter)
</span>
We calculate as follows:
area = (½)(7<span>)(7.2 x 5)
</span>area = 126 square units
Hope this answers the question.
No, 1/3 is greater than 1/6.
1/3 converts to 2/6.
2/6 > 1/6
Answer:
72 alligators, 128 turtles
Step-by-step explanation:
When you put the words into the form of an equation, with a being alligators, you get
3a-16=200
So you have to do 'letters left numbers right'. This gives you
3a=216
Now you have to divide. 216 divided by 3 equals 72. So there are 72 alligators. 200 minus 72 equals 128, so there are 128 turtles
substitute for your equation;
h(x) = f(x) - g(x)
h(x) = (3x + 2) - (-2x -4)
h(x) = 3x + 2 + 2x + 4 (minus and minus = addition)
h(x) = 3x + 2x + 2 + 4 (combine like terms)
h(x) = 5x + 6
Hope that helps! :D
