Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the chord chord theorem

10(4) = 5x

Solve for x

Simplify multiplication

40 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5

40/5 = 8

5x/5 = x

We're left with x = 8

Note:

Chord chord theorem states that if two chords intersect then the product of the measures of each part of one chord is equal to the product of the measures of the parts of the other chord.

Because the chords shown intersect the product of the parts of each chord should be equal to each other ( 4 * 10 = 5x )

If 5(3x-1)=55 what is the value of 2x-2

cricket20 [7]

Hey ! there

Answer:

Value of 2x - 2 is 6 .

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we are provided with an equation that is 5 ( 3x - 1 ) = 55 and we are asked to find the value of 2x - 2 .

Firstly , we need to find the value of x . So we need to solve the equation .

SOLUTION : -

$\quad \longmapsto \qquad \: 5(3x - 1) = 55$

Step 1 : Dividing with 5 on both sides :

$\quad \longmapsto \qquad \: \dfrac{ \cancel{5}(3x - 1)}{ \cancel{5}} = \cancel{\dfrac{55}{5} }$

On cancelling , We get :

$\quad \longmapsto \qquad \:3x - 1 = 11$

Step 2 : Adding 1 on both sides :

$\quad \longmapsto \qquad \:3x - \cancel{1} + \cancel{1} = 11 + 1$

On simplifying , We get :

$\quad \longmapsto \qquad \:3x = 12$

Step 3 : Dividing with 3 on both sides :

$\quad \longmapsto \qquad \: \dfrac{ \cancel{3}x}{ \cancel{3}} = \cancel{ \dfrac{12}{3} }$

We get ,

$\quad \longmapsto \qquad \: \underline{\boxed{\frak{x = 4}}}$

→ Therefore , value of x is 4 .

Verifying : -

Now we are verifying whether our answer is wrong or right . So ,

5 ( 3x - 1 ) = 55

5 { 3( 4 ) - 1 } = 55

5 ( 12 - 1 ) = 55

5 ( 11 ) = 55

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence , Verified .

Therefore , our value of x is correct/valid .

We need to find the value of 2x - 2 . 

 $\quad \longmapsto \qquad \:2x - 2$ 

So substituting value of x in it :

 $\quad \longmapsto \qquad \:2( \bold{4}) - 2$ 

Multiplying 2 with 4 : 

 $\quad \longmapsto \qquad \:8 - 2$ 

Subtracting 2 from 8 :

$\quad \longmapsto \qquad \: \blue{\underline{\boxed{\frak{6}}}} \quad \: \bigstar$

Henceforth, value of 2x - 2 is ❝ 6 ❞.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Markup price= 15% of 500

$=\frac{15}{100}*500\\\\=15*5\\$

= $ 75

Selling price = 500 + 75 = $ 575.00
