Perimeter of quadrilateral ANCM = AN+NC+CM+MA
CM=AM = x in
Therefore, AN=NC = x in
In other words, all sides of the new quadrilateral are equal.
Perimeter (P) = 4x in
Now, Cos 45 = (x-6)/x =>0.7041 = (x-6)/x => 0.7041x=x-6 =>x= 6/(1-0.70741)
x= 20.5 in
Therefore, P=4*20.5 = 82 in
But this is not a question. proof? no question mark
In this situation, it is similar to a coin flip, so think about flipping a 2 sided chip, one side colored yellow the other blue, flipping the chip will result in a 50/50 chance for it to land on either side, so no matter how many times you flip it it will always be a 1/2 chance of it being on one of the sides
Let's go through each answer choice and eliminate the choices.
a) 6(2/3) = 4, this is less than 6, making it our correct answer, but still go and check each answer
b) 6(2/3) again = 4, this is less than 6, making this answer choice wrong.
c) 6(3/2) = 9, this is greater than 6, making this answer choice wrong.
d) 6(3/3) = 6, this is equal to 6, making this answer choice wrong.
Answer:
x = -3 x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + x - 6 = 0
Factor
What two numbers multiply to -6 and add to 1
3*-2 =-6
3+-2 =1
(x+3) (x-2) = 0
Using the zero product property
x+3 = 0 x-2 = 0
x = -3 x=2
