Answer:
3 + 4 = 7 which is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
Whenever you have an equation with a plain variable (that is, no exponent included), there is only one number that will work when substituted for x.
To solve it, you have to "undo" what is done to the variable. You also go in the reverse order of operations, so you do the addition/subtract first, then multiplication/division.
You also have to do the same to both sides, kind of like keeping a balance scale in balance.
In this case, we subtract 4 from both sides first:
3x + 4 -4 = 7 - 4
The + 4 - 4 cancel each other out, so you get:
3x = 3
3x means "3 times x" so you divide by 3 to undo it. I will use the / to indicate division:
3x / 3 = 3 /3
so 1x = 1.
Since 1x is "1 times x" it is the same as x by itself, so:
x=1
AND, if we substitute 1 back into the original equation (the asterisk stands for multiply):
3 * 1 + 4 = 7
3 * 1 is 3, so:
3 + 4 = 7 which is true.
1 is the only number that works.
Hope this helped.
Answer:
x= 
Step-by-step explanation:
you might need a calculator to get the answer but since it is a right triangle the legs of the triangle in this case x and the are the same length
Answer:
m∠BCD = 90°
∠BCD is a right angle
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>If a ray bisects an angle, that means it divides the angle into two equal parts in measure</em>
∵ Ray CE bisects ∠BCD
→ Means divide it into two angles BCE and ECD which equal in measures
∴ m∠BCE = m∠ECD = 
m∠BCD
∵ m∠BCE = 3x - 6
∵ m∠ECD = 2x + 11
→ Equate them to find x
∴ 3x - 6 = 2x + 11
→ Add 6 to both sides
∵ 3x - 6 + 6 = 2x + 11 + 6
∴ 3x = 2x + 17
→ Subtract 2x from both sides
∵ 3x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 17
∴ x = 17
∵ m∠BCE = m∠BCD
→ Substitute x in the measure of ∠BCE to find it, then use it to
find m∠BCD
∵ m∠BCE = 3(17) - 6 = 51 - 6
∴ m∠BCE = 45°
∵ 45 = m∠BCD
→ Multiply both sides by 2
∴ 90 = m∠BCD
∴ m∠BCD = 90°
→ The measure of the acute angle is less than 90°, the measure of
the obtuse angle is greater than 90°, and the measure of the
right angle is 90°
∴ ∠BCD is a right angle
Marie states that any integer greater than 4 will always get an even number of factors.
This can be proven wrong by (for example) 12.
12 has these factors:
1 x 12
2 x 6
3 x 4
12 has an ODD number of factor pairs.
Another example is 28.
28:
1 x 28
2 x 14
4 x 7
28 has an odd number of factor pairs.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
So 4:5:6 = 45
4+5+6 = 15
45/15 = 3
Since 4 is the smallest, 4*3 = 12.
Hope this works!
