Answer: x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that sum of a triangle is 180 degrees
one angle is 90 degree
the sum will be 90+(2x+1)+(5x+5)=180
substract 90 from both sides
2x+1+5x+5=180-90
7x+6=90
7x=90-6
divide by 7
x=12
Answer: Slope is -2 and y int: -1
Step-by-step explanation: y=mx+b is the formula for finding slope & y intercept.
It was in your equation m=-2 and -1 being y intercept
Let's say the second piece is x ft long
The first piece is 2x ft long
The third piece is x+4 ft long
All of the pieces should add up to 10ft
x+2x+x+4=10
4x= 6
x=1.5ft
The first piece is 2x ft long=3 ft long
Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance that a is to b is b-a=17-2=15.
The line segment from a=2 to b=17 has length 15.
We need to know what is 3/5 of 15.
3/5 of 15 means what is 3/5 times 15?
(3/5)(15)=3(3)=9
So this means we are looking to make a line segment that is 9 units from 2 which is 2 to 11.
So 11 is 3/5 the way from a=2 to b=17.
Let's check from 2 to 11 that is a length of 9 and from 2 to 17 that is a length of 15.
Is 9/15 equal to 3/5?
Yes, 9/15 can be reduced to 3/5.
