What is the measure of x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
UkoKoshka [18]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2

(x+5) *x = 6^2

x^2 +5x = 36

Subtract 36 from each side

x^2 +5x - 36 = 0

Factor

( x-4) (x+9) = 0

Using the zero product property

x-4 = 0  x+9 =0

x = 4  x=-9

Cannot be negative since that is negative length

x=4

Their are 6 equilateral triangles in a regular hexagon:
The area of one triangle = (x²√3)/4, then:
1st answer: The area of the hexagon base: is  6 TIMES the area of one equilateral triangle [or, needed for 2nd, question, TOT AREA:(6x²√3)/4] = (3x²√3)/2] unit²

2nd answer: :
Volume of pyramid: (base area)(height)/3
Volume of pyramid: (3x²√3).(3x)/3 (because height = 3x, given)
Then Volume of pyramid= 3x³√3 unit³.
3 is the answer for the second question

A car uses 1 gallon of gasoline for every 25 miles driven. At the start of a trip the tank was full of gasoline. After driving 5
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

d = 22 - x / 25

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing is to calculate the tank capacity, we know that per gallon 25 miles are traveled and at 500 miles there were still two gallons, therefore:

500 miles / 25 miles / gallon = 20

and how there were still 2

20 + 2 = 22

the tank has a 22 gallon capacity

Therefore the equation would be:

d = 22 - x / 25

where x is the number of miles traveled.

for example, if they have traveled 500 miles it would be:

d = 22 - 500/25 = 22 - 20

d = 2 gallons

we can verify that it is correct because it is what the statement says
