Answer: x=7
ab=21
bc=14
Step-by-step explanation:
ab=3x
bc=2x±7
ac=42
3x±2x±7=42
5x±7=42
5x=42-7
5x=35
to get the value of x you divide 35 by 5x
35÷5x=7
so the value of x is 7
ab=3x
x=7
3x=7×3x
7×3=21
x=7
2x=7×2x
2×7=14
Answer:
x=0, y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 9y appears twice in both equations, you can subtract the equations to eliminate the y variable so you can solve for x:
-7x + 9y = -18
-(4x + 9y = -18)
__________
-11x = 0
x = 0
Since we know x=0, then we plug it back into one of the equations to get the value of y:
-7x + 9y = -18
-7(0) + 9y = -18
0 + 9y = -18
9y = -18
y = -2
Therefore, x=0, and y=-2
First of all I want to point out you drew the diagram a little wrong. The Arc is 41 doesn't mean its 41 degrees it means it has length 41 so remove the degrees symbol.
Now for the answer the other arc have to have angle 40 too because vertical angles. And because the radius is the same, both of the length has formula 40/360*pi*2*radius which is 41 in this case. So x has to be 41 also :) Done!
100/99 is one, there are infinite answers though
