Answer:
x = 8.5
Step-by-step explanation:
I got this answer by assuming the triangles were congurent, if they are not, the answer may vary.
first, make an equation:
x + 8 = 3x - 9
bring 3x to the other side, by subtracting it
-2x + 8 = -9
Subtract 8
-2x = -17
divide by -2
x = 8.5
Then, just sub x into the formulas
I can’t seem to look at the bottom two answers and the two ( A and B) are not correct. So you’re left with either C or D
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
I think the easiest way to go about this is to choose on of the answers and fill it in to see if it's correct. Since you only have 4 possible answers, there's no need to actually solve this.
In the question it already tells us that x does not equal 0, so that answer is automatically not correct. Now your down to three possible answers.
Start with -3. First, fill in the x with -3 for what the equation is supposed to equal. That gives you 3/-3. Simplified, that is -1. Now put -3 in for the x in the equation. That gives you 3/2(-3) + 1/2. After running that through your calculator or solving it, you end up with 0. So -3 is not your answer.
Next we'll try the 2. Do as we did last time, and fill in the x on the answer part of the equation. You now have 3/2. That doesn't simplify so it stays as is. Now for the equation. That makes it 3/2(2) +1/2. Put that in your calculator or solve, and you get 5/4. 5/4 does not equal 3/2 so 2 is not your answer.
That leaves 3. You can go ahead and run through the steps above using 3 if you want to double check, but since it's the only answer left, there isn't really a need to.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
27850
Step-by-step explanation:
9/100 = x/30.95
9 x 30.95 = 278.5
278.5 x 100
