Answer:
x = -14
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
7x + 156 = 9x + 184
Reorder the terms:
156 + 7x = 9x + 184
Reorder the terms:
156 + 7x = 184 + 9x
Solving
156 + 7x = 184 + 9x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-9x' to each side of the equation.
156 + 7x + -9x = 184 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 7x + -9x = -2x
156 + -2x = 184 + 9x + -9x
Combine like terms: 9x + -9x = 0
156 + -2x = 184 + 0
156 + -2x = 184
Add '-156' to each side of the equation.
156 + -156 + -2x = 184 + -156
Combine like terms: 156 + -156 = 0
0 + -2x = 184 + -156
-2x = 184 + -156
Combine like terms: 184 + -156 = 28
-2x = 28
Divide each side by '-2'.
x = -14
Simplifying
x = -14
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
take your compass on a point on your line. then draw a circle. take the 2 points in which the circle hit the line and draw 2 circles larger than half the distance between he 2 points. take the point that they intersect and and connect it to the line and you point M and it is purpendicular. does that make sense?
-2x^2 + 500x - 350
You need to plug in the equations for C(x) and R(x) into the equation P(x)= R(x) - C(x) and solve.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For problem 10:
1. AE/ED=AC/CB (Since triangle ABC is similar to triangle ADE, we can determine that the ratio of AE to ED is equal to the ratio of AC to CB)
2. AE/ED=(AE+EC)/CB (Rewrite AC as the sum of the lengths forming it; This is sometimes referred to as the Partition Postulate)
3. 9/x=(9+6)/10 (Substitute the given values into this equation)
4. x=6 (Use algebra to solve for x)
For problem 11:
1. AG/AB=AE/AD (Use the same strategy as step one in problem 10, since the rectangles are similar we can create this equation)
2. AG/(AG+GB)=AE/(AE+ED) (Rewrite sides as the some of their parts)
3. 14/(14+7)=18/(18+x) (Substitute given values)
4. x=9 (Solve for x)
lmk if there are mistakes in my explanation, hope this helps :)
