Answer:

11/16 inch or 0.6875 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

26 * x = 17 7/8

17 7/8 = 143/8

143/8 ÷ 26 = 143/8 x 1/26 = 143/208 = 0.6875

0.6875 in = 11/16 in

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

If you like my answer and explanation, mark me as brainliest!

Please help how to find the value of x and find the length of segment AD, the value is 5 I just need to show my work.
alexdok [17]

Answer:

9. x = 5

10. AD = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the diagram, BD is a perpendicular bisector. And D is a point on the perpendicular bisector, meaning it is equidistant from the endpoints on the segment(points A and C). Because of this, we can say AD = CD.

We can substitute to get:

2x - 3 = x + 2

And simplify and solve:

x - 3 = 2

x = 5

AD is just 2x - 3, so we can substitute in x to find AD:

AD = 2(5) -3

AD = 10 - 3

AD = 7

The volume of a right cone is 264 π units. if its circumference measures 12 π units, find its height
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

r = \frac{12\pi }{\pi } / 2 = 6

volume = 1/3 * π * r² * h

h = 3 * V/π * r^{2}

h = \frac{3 * 264\pi }{\pi  * 6^{2} } = 22

Why must one leg of a triangle that the Pythagorean triple represents need an even-numbered length?
pashok25 [27]

Most of the square numbers are even.so if we need to find root over we need an even number to convert it to perfect square.

See the example below

  • P=3
  • B=4
  • H=5

\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H^2=P^2+B^2

\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H^2=3^2+4^2

\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H^2=9+16

\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H^2=25

\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H=\sqrt{25}

\\ \ast\bull\rm\longmapsto H=5

Some other triplets are

  • (6,8,10)
  • (5,12,13)
  • (8,15,17)
