Find the value of x to the nearest tenth.

Mathematics
1 answer:
jenyasd209 [6]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Find the hypotenuse of the triangle. That is also the length of the rectangle.

Then use Pythagoras to find x.

Givens and solution

two sides of the triangle both = to 6

Find the base of the triangle which is also the length of the rectangle. Call the base = y

6^2 + 6^2 = y^2

36 + 36 = y^2

y^2 = 72

sqrt(y^2) = sqrt(72)

y = 8.4853

Transfer x to the opposite side of the rectangle.

x^2 = diagonal^2 - y^2

x^2 = 9^2 - y^2

x^2 = 81 - 72

x^2 = 9

sqrt(x^2)= sqrt(9)

x = 3

Does a multi-step equation always, sometimes, or never have a solution? Explain your reasoning.
DedPeter [7]

Only sometimes.

4x + 1 = 2x+3 has a solution.

4x + 1 = 4(x+1) has infinitely many solutions.

(3*9) -28 = 45^ 0 has no solutions.

Therefore, a multi-step equation sometimes has a solution.

What is absolute value and why is it always positive?
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

An absolute value is the distance a number is from 0 on the number line. So, regardless if it is a negative or a positive number, the distance from that number to 0 will always be positive. For example, -5 is 5 units away from 0, and 5 is also 5 units from zero. They have the same absolute value, even though one is negative and the other is positive.
