Answer:

x = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles are corresponding angles and corresponding angles are equal if the lines parallel

2x+3 = 71

Subtract 3 from each side

2x+3-3 = 71-3

2x = 68

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 68/2

x = 34

First u do a squared +b squared =c squared aka pythagorean theorem then so u already have c squared so you would do 5x5=25 and 13x13=169 so then the equation would be 25+?=169 then do 169-25 which equals 144 and then do the square root of that which is 12 THE ANSWER IS 12

Can you please help me find the area? Thank you. :)))

The figure shown in the picture is a rectangular shape that is missing a triangular piece. To determine the area of the figure you have to determine the area of the rectangle and the area of the triangular piece, then you have to subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the rectangle.

The rectangular shape has a width of 12 inches and a length of 20 inches. The area of the rectangle is equal to the multiplication of the width (w) and the length (l), following the formula:

$A=w\cdot l$

For our rectangle w=12 in and l=20 in, the area is:

$\begin{gathered} A_{\text{rectangle}}=12\cdot20 \\ A_{\text{rectangle}}=240in^2 \end{gathered}$

The triangular piece has a height of 6in and its base has a length unknown. Before calculating the area of the triangle, you have to determine the length of the base, which I marked with an "x" in the sketch above.

The length of the rectangle is 20 inches, the triangular piece divides this length into three segments, two of which measure 8 inches and the third one is of unknown length.

You can determine the value of x as follows:

$\begin{gathered} 20=8+8+x \\ 20=16+x \\ 20-16=x \\ 4=x \end{gathered}$

x=4 in → this means that the base of the triangle is 4in long.

The area of the triangle is equal to half the product of the base by the height, following the formula:

$A=\frac{b\cdot h}{2}$

For our triangle, the base is b=4in and the height is h=6in, then the area is:

$\begin{gathered} A_{\text{triangle}}=\frac{4\cdot6}{2} \\ A_{\text{triangle}}=\frac{24}{2} \\ A_{\text{triangle}}=12in^2 \end{gathered}$

Finally, to determine the area of the shape you have to subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the rectangle:

$\begin{gathered} A_{\text{total}}=A_{\text{rectangle}}-A_{\text{triangle}} \\ A_{\text{total}}=240-12 \\ A_{\text{total}}=228in^2 \end{gathered}$

The area of the figure is 228in²

In a certain clothing store,6 shirts and 3 ties cost $79.50 ,and 3 shirts and 2 ties cost $41. determine the cost of each shirt.

Komok [63]

Answer:

Each shirt cost $12

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to interpret this question and turn each to an equation, letting shirts represent the letter s and ties represent the letter t.

6 shirts and 3 ties cost $79.50 would be interpreted to 6s+3t=79.5 ,and 3 shirts and 2 ties cost $41 would be interpreted to 3s+2t=41

Hence we have two equations, and we solve them simultaneously.

6s+3t=79.5 (Equation 1)

3s+2t=41 (Equation 2)

We can either use the substitution method or the elimination method but for the sake of this question, we use the Elimination method.

6s+3t=79.5 (Equation 1)

3s+2t=41 (Equation 2)

We multiply equation 1 by 2 and we multiply equation 2 by 3, I'm prefer to eliminate the

2(6s+3t=79.5)

12s+6t=159 Equation 3

3(3s+2t=41)

9s+6t=123 Equation 4

We subtract equation 4 from equation 3.

12s+6t=159

9s+6t=123

12s-9s=3s

6t-6t=0

159-123=36

We therefore have

3s=36

Divide both sides by 3

s=36/3

s=12

One shirt cost $12
