The legs of an isosceles trapezoid have lengths of 48 - 7x and x + 8. What is the length of one of the legs?

Mathematics

Answer:

13 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The legs of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent, then

x + 8 = 48 - 7x ( add 7x to both sides )

8x + 8 = 48 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

8x = 40 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 5

Then

leg = x + 8 = 5 + 8 = 13

A ½in diameter rod of 5in length is being considered as part of a mechanical linkagein which it can experience a tensile loading
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

a. Maximum Load = Force = 27085.09 N

b. Maximum Energy = 3.440 Joules

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rod diameter = ½in = 0.5in

Length = 5in

Young's modulus = 15.5Msi

By applying the 0.2% offset rule,

The maximum load the rod can hold before it gets to breaking point is given as follows by taking the strain as 0.2%

Young Modulus = Stress/Strain ------- Make Stress the Subject of Formula

Stress = Strain * Young Modulus

Stress = 0.2% * 15.5

Stress = 0.002 * 15.5

Stress = 0.031Msi

Calculating the area of the rod

Area = πr² or πd²/4

Area, A = 22/7 * 0.5^4 / 4

A = 22/7 * 0.25 / 4

A = 5.5/28

A = 0.1964in²

The maximum load that the rod would take before it starts to permanently elongate is given by

Force = Stress * Atea

Force = 0.031Msi * 0.1964in²

Force = 31Ksi * 0.1964in²

Force = 6.089Ksi in²

Force = 6.089 * 1000lbf

Force = 6089 lbf

1 lbf = 4.4482N

So, Force = 6089 * 4.4482N

Force = 27085.09 N

b.

Using Strain to Energy Formula

U = V×σ²/2·E

Where V = Volume

V = Length * Area

V = 5 in * 0.1964in²

V = 0.982in³

σ = Stress = 0.031Msi

= 0.031 * 1000Ksi

= 31Ksi

= 31 * 1000psi

= 31000psi

E = Young Modulus = 15.5Msi

= 15.5 * 1000Ksi

= 15.5 * 1000 * 1000psi

= 15500000psi

So,

Energy = 0.982 * 31000²/ ( 2 * 15500000)

Energy = 943,702,000/31000000

Energy = 30.442in³psi

------- Converted to ftlbf

Energy = 2.537 ftlbf

-------- Converted to Joules

Energy = 3.440 Joules

I NEED HELP PLEASE !!! <br> What is the value for x?<br> Enter your answer in the box.<br> x =
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

because we know its an isosceles triangle angle A and C will both be the same and since we know A = 69 C will also be 69. we also know that angles in a triangle add to 180 so take away the two 69s from the 180 to get 42

then we work backwards if its 5x + 2 then we need to do 5x - 2 to get 40 then divide it by 5 to get your answer 8!

(sorry if the explanation doesnt make sense )
