Answer: x = 16°

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle, which means all angles add up to 180°.
One of the angle is already determined to be 90°, that means the sum of the other two angles must also be 90° in order to meet a total of 180°.

This means (x+26)° + 3x° = 90°.

Solve for x:

x + 26 + 3x = 90

x + 3x = 90 - 26

4x = 64

x = 64 ÷ 4 = 16°

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to know the max degrees in this figure

Since the shape is a right triangle, then the max degrees is 180°

Now that box in the triangle indicates that the angle measures 90°

180° - 90° = 90°

so for both missing angles, we're going to create a equation that satisfy to 90°

$(x+26)+(3x)=90$

First subtract the 26 from both sides (on 90 and on the equation)

$x+3x=64$ (We're left with this)

64 = 3x + x

64 = 3(16) + 16

64 = 48 + 16

64 = 64

x = 16

Eggplant has a yield of 81%. If you purchase 12lb of eggplant, how many pounds will you be able to use?(round to the nearest hun

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

9.72 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Yield = the amount or quantity produced or returned.

Given:

Yield of eggplant = 81%
Amount of eggplant purchased = 12 lb

To determine how many pounds of eggplant you will be able to use, calculate 81% of the amount of eggplant purchased.

$\begin{aligned}\sf 81\% \: of \: 12 \: lb & = \sf \dfrac{81}{100} \cdot 12\\\\& = \sf \dfrac{81 \cdot 12}{100}\\\\& = \sf \dfrac{972}{100}\\\\& = \sf 9.72\:lb\end{aligned}$

Therefore, you will be able to use 9.72 lb (nearest hundredth).

Answer:

-26

Step-by-step explanation:

2 × 3 + 4 − 6^2

PEMDAS

exponents are first in this equation

2 × 3 + 4 − 36

Then multiply

6 +4 -36

Then add and subtract from left to right

10-36

A cube has side length x. One side of the cube is increased by 4 inches, and another side is doubled. The volume of the new rect

AfilCa [17]

Let

x-------> the length side of the original cube

we have

$2x^{3} +8x=450\\2x^{3}=450-8x$

Divide by $2$ both sides

$x^{3}=225-4x$

The system of equations is equal to

$y=x^{3}$ --------> equation $1$

$y=225-4x$ --------> equation $2$

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

we know that

the solution of the system of equations is the intersection both graphs

therefore

the solution is

$x=5.86\ in$

therefore

the answer is

$5.86\ inches$

Effectus [21]

Answer:

1) True 2) False

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Given $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}$

To verify that the above equality is true or false:

Now find $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\frac{1}{0+3}+\frac{1}{1+3}+\frac{1}{2+3}+\frac{1}{3+3}+\frac{1}{4+3}+\frac{1}{5+3}+\frac{1}{6+3}+\frac{1}{7+3}+\frac{1}{8+3}$ $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{11}$
