The value of x is ___?

Mathematics

Rashid [163]3 years ago
3 0
9x=5x+ (9=x)
(combine like terms)
9x=6x+9
(get the x value alone on one side of the equation, in this case by subtracting 6x from both sides)
3x=9
(divide by 3 on both sides to get x alone)
x=3

7. Quadrilateral MNPQ has vertices M(4,0), N(0,6), P(-4,0) and Q(0, -6). Determine whether
kirill [66]

Answer:

SQUARE

Step-by-step explanation:

If Quadrilateral MNPQ has vertices M(4,0), N(0,6), P(-4,0) and Q(0, -6).

Find the following MN,  NP, PQ and MQ

Using the formula for calculating the distance between two points

MN = √(6-0)²+(0-4)²

MN = √6²+4²

MN = √36+16

MN = √52

MN = 2√13

NP = √(0-6)²+(-4-0)²

NP = √6²+4²

NP = √36+16

NP = √52

NP = 2√13

PQ = √(-6-0)²+(0-(-4))²

PQ = √6²+4²

PQ = √36+16

PQ = √52

PQ = 2√13

MQ = √(-6-0)²+(0-4)²

MQ = √6²+4²

MQ = √36+16

MQ= √52

MQ = 2√13

Since the length of all the sides are equal, hence the shape is a SQUARE

Find the length of the indicated side.
Ne4ueva [31]

Hello

DEF and IKL , equilateral  =>

DE = 5x-12 = 3x-4

5x-3x= -4+12

2x= 8

x=4

DE = 5x-12 =  20-12 = 8

KL = 3x+24 = 10x+3

24 -3 = 10x-3x

21 = 7x

x= 21/7 = 3

KJ = 10x+3 = 30+3 = 33

Hakim invests $700 in a bank that pays 5% simple interest annually. After one year he uses the money in his account to buy a com
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

  $111

Step-by-step explanation:

The bank balance is ...

  $700 × (1 + 0.05) = $735

The cost of the computer is ...

  $750 × (1 -0.20) × (1 +0.04) = $624

The remaining bank balance after paying for the computer is ...

  $735 -624 = $111

_____

When you add a percentage, you effectively multiply by the sum of 1 and that percentage. The same is true if the amount "added" is negative (as for a discounted price).

  (original amount) + (percentage)×(original amount)

Use the distributive property to factor out the original amount:

 = (original amount)×(1 + percentage)

Help!! 50 points and brainliest!
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Second choice:

x=2t

y=4t^2+4t-3

Fifth choice:

x=t+1

y=t^2+4t

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at choice 1.

x=t+1

y=t^2+2t

I'm going to subtract 1 on both sides for the first equation giving me x-1=t. I will replace the t in the second equation with this substitution from equation 1.

y=(x-1)^2+2(x-1)

Expand using the distributive property and the identity (u+v)^2=u^2+2uv+v^2:

y=(x^2-2x+1)+(2x-2)

y=x^2+(-2x+2x)+(1-2)

y=x^2+0+-1

y=x^2

So this not the desired result.

Let's look at choice 2.

x=2t

y=4t^2+4t-3

Solve the first equation for t by dividing both sides by 2:

t=\frac{x}{2}.

Let's plug this into equation 2:

y=4(\frac{x}{2})^2+4(\frac{x}{2})-3

y=4(\frac{x^2}{4})+2x-3

y=x^2+2x-3

This is the desired result.

Choice 3:

x=t-3

y=t^2+2t

Solve the first equation for t by adding 3 on both sides:

x+3=t.

Plug into second equation:

y=(x+3)^2+2(x+3)

Expanding using the distributive property and the earlier identity mentioned to expand the binomial square:

y=(x^2+6x+9)+(2x+6)

y=(x^2)+(6x+2x)+(9+6)

y=x^2+8x+15

Not the desired result.

Choice 4:

x=t^2

y=2t-3

I'm going to solve the bottom equation for t since I don't want to deal with square roots.

Add 3 on both sides:

y+3=2t

Divide both sides by 2:

\frac{y+3}{2}=t

Plug into equation 1:

x=(\frac{y+3}{2})^2

This is not the desired result because the y variable will be squared now instead of the x variable.

Choice 5:

x=t+1

y=t^2+4t

Solve the first equation for t by subtracting 1 on both sides:

x-1=t.

Plug into equation 2:

y=(x-1)^2+4(x-1)

Distribute and use the binomial square identity used earlier:

y=(x^2-2x+1)+(4x-4)

y=(x^2)+(-2x+4x)+(1-4)

y=x^2+2x+-3

y=x^2+2x-3.

This is the desired result.
