Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line is parallel to a side of a triangle and it intersects the other 2 sides then it divides those sides proportionally, that is

$\frac{6x+2}{x +5}$ = $\frac{24-8}{8}$ = $\frac{16}{8}$ = 2 ( multiply both sides by x + 5 )

6x + 2 = 2(x + 5)

6x + 2 = 2x + 10 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

4x + 2 = 10 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

4x = 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 2

!!!50 POINTS!!! Help Please 2. Which functions are exponential decay functions? Choose exactly two answers that are correct. A.

Goshia [24]

A characteristics of an exponential decay function is it has a constant term that is lesser than 1, this is because when you raise it a number that is lesser than 1 to higher values the result will be lesser and lesser, that is why it is called decay function. so the decay functions are a. f(x)=0.9^x and d. <span>j(x)=(4/5)^x</span>

Five less than one third of a number

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

$x\frac{1}3 -5$

Step-by-step explanation:

You don't know the number, so you replace it with x.

Since it is one third of x, you multiply x by $\frac{1}{3}$

Then you subtract 5 from the whole thing: $x\frac{1}{3} -5$

I NEED HELP I WILL GIVE ALL POINTS AND MARK BRAINIEST PLEASE HELP ME

So a line is 180 degrees. These angles would equal 180. So 180= w + (3w -28). You add 28 too 180, getting 208. Then divide by the 4w. Leading you to w= 52. Plug into the equations to make sure everything checks out

Find two consecutive integers such that 3 times larger exceeds twice the smaller by 34

Katen [24]

Answer:

x - a smaller number

(x+1) - a larger number

3(x+1) - 2x = 34

3x + 3 - 2x = 34

x= 31

(x+1) = 32
