Mathematics

Rudik [331]3 years ago
3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

DE = 8x - 13

EF = 5x + 17

DF = x + 21

Also,

DE = EF

which means that,

8x - 13 = 5x + 17

8x - 5x = 17 + 13

3x = 30

x = 30/3

x = 10

Now,

DE = 8x - 13 = 8×10 - 13 = 80 - 13 = 67cm

EF = 5x + 17 = 5×10 + 17 = 50 + 17 = 67cm

DF = x + 21 = 10 + 21 = 31cm

Write an equivalent expression for 4 + 2 using the Distributive Property.
My name is Ann [436]
Looking at the choices i believe you need a g in your question. If it is 4g+2
Then you factor out at 2 to get 2(2g+1) choice a
If it 4+2g then you also factor out a 2 but this time get 2(2+g) choice b
Depending on what the question actually is those would be the answers

Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. Complete the statements about these similar pyramids. Two square pyramids A
Scrat [10]

The ratio of the heights of these pyramids is 3 : 1, the ratio of the base areas is 9 : 1 and the ratio of the volumes is 27 : 1.

<h3>What is ratio?</h3>

Ratio can be defined as a mathematical expression which denotes the proportion of two (2) or more physical quantities to one another and the total quantities.

The ratio of the heights of these pyramids is given by:

Ratio = Height of pyramid A : Height of pyramid B

Ratio = (3V/lw) : (V/lw)

Ratio = 3 : 1.

The ratio of the base areas of these pyramids is given by:

Ratio = Base area of pyramid A : Base area of pyramid B

Ratio = (3a)² : a²

Ratio = 9a : a

Ratio = 9 : 1.

The ratio of the volumes of these pyramids is given by:

Ratio = Volume of pyramid A : Volume of pyramid B

Ratio = (3l × 3w × 3h)/3 : (l × w × h)/3

Ratio = 27 : 1.

Which of the following is the inverse of y=6^x ?
ValentinkaMS [17]
We have that
y=6^x
we know 
to find the inverse
replace x with y and y with x,
x=6^y

we know that
y=logb(x)----------> x=b^y

therefore
x=6^y---------------> y=log6(x)

the answer is the option A.) Y=log 6x
