Answer:
A) 29/8
Step-by-step explanation:
On the left side of the equals sign, we have five x's and nine -1's.
On the right side of the equals sign, we have three -x's and twenty 1's.
Both sides are equal, so:
5(x) + 9(-1) = 3(-x) + 20(1)
5x − 9 = -3x + 20
Add 3x to both sides.
8x − 9 = 20
Add 9 to both sides.
8x = 29
Divide both sides by 8.
x = 29/8
Since each leg of the large trapezoid is bisected, then HJ is the average of the lengths of KL and NM.
HJ = (KL + NM)/2
2(HJ) = KL + nm
2(5x + 2) = 4x + 1 + 27
10x + 4 = 4x + 28
6x = 24
x = 4
KL = 4x + 1 = 4(4) + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17
Answer: KL = 17
Answer:
The correct answer is:
(7s-2)+3+(s+3) = 52, or 8s+4 = 52.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since s is the son's age, "two less than seven times" the son's age would be represented by 7s-2. To represent this in 3 years, we would add 3: (7s-2)+3. In 3 years, the son's age, s, would be represented by s+3. We are told that the sum of these ages will be 52; this gives us (7s-2)+3+(s+3) = 52.
To simplify this, combine like terms. 7s+s = 8s; -2+3+3 = 4. This gives us 8s+4=52.
The distance at the base is 4 feet. Hope this helps.
