Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
We have
x² + 24x = 17 (1)
Note that
(x + 12)² = x² + 24x + 144
By adding 144 to the left side of equation (1), it becomes a perfect square.
Therefore
x² + 24x = (x+12)² - 144 (2)
Substitute (2) into (1).
(x + 12)² - 144 = 17
(x + 12)² = 17 +144
(x + 12)² = 161
Answer:
We added 144 to the left side of equation (1) in order to make it a perfect square.
2x + 30 = -20x + 8
2x + 20x = 8 - 30
22x = -22
x = 1
Answer:
x=30° y=4
Step-by-step explanation:
cross multiple
5y=8(2.5)
5y=20
divide 5 by 20
and you should y=4
since the polygons are similar x should have the same degrees as the bigger polygon
10% turned into a decimal is .1 because to turn a percent into a decimal you need to move the decimal 2 places to the left. Now that you know that you take 110*.1=11.
