15/40 x 100 = 37.5
equation for percent decrease is diiference/original x 100.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey There!
So these triangles are congruent so segment CD is equal to segment DB
so to find x we use the equation
7x+10=10x+7
now we solve for x
step 1 subtract each side by 7
10-7=3
7-7 cancels out
now we have 7x+3=10x
step 2 subtract each side by 7 x
10x-7x=3x
7x-7x= cancels out
now we have
3x=3
step 3 divide each side by 3
3/3=1
3/3 cancels out
now we have
x=1
-2(x-6)+7=35
-2x+6+7=35 (Distributive property)
-2x+13=35 (Simplify, combine like terms)
-2x+13-13=35-13
-2x=22
-2x/-2=22/-2
X=-11
Answer:
∠ WUV = 36°
Step-by-step explanation:
The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.
∠ VWX is an exterior angle of the triangle, thus
8x - 18 = 2x + 8 + 3x + 16
8x - 18 = 5x + 24 ( subtract 5x from both sides )
3x - 18 = 24 ( add 18 to both sides )
3x = 42 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 14
Thus
∠ WUV = 2x + 8 = 2(14) + 8 = 28 + 8 = 36°
Answer:
The area of a triangle= bh/2. Substitute
12(x+6)/2 ≤ 72
12(1/2x+3) ≤ 72
6x+36 ≤ 72
6x ≤ 72-36
6x ≤ 36 Divide both sides by 6
x ≤ 6
x|x ≤6 (read: x, where x is equal or smaller than 6)
