Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
6(x - 1) = 9(x - 4)
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Distribute: 6x - 6 = 9x - 36
- Subtract 6x on both sides: -6 = 3x - 36
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: 30 = 3x
- Isolate <em>x</em>: 10 = x
- Rewrite: x = 10
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 6(10 - 1) = 9(10 - 4)
- Subtract: 6(9) = 9(6)
Here we see that the 2 expressions are exactly the same.
∴ x = 10 is the solution to the equation.
Answer:
A = 57.97 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezium is calculated as
A = 
h (a + b)
where h is the perpendicular height and a, b the parallel bases
Here h = 6.2, a = 10.8 and b = 7.9, thus
A = × 6.2 × (10.8 + 7.9) = 3.1 × 18.7 = 57.97 cm²
1 years is $5200
2 years is $5408
3 years is $5624.32
4 years is $5849.29
5 years is $6083.26
Okay so, we switch out f(x) with y - I’m sure you know this and we get y=2+3x/x-2.
Now just interchange x and y -> x=2+3y/y-2, now multiply both sides with (y-2), we get (y-2)x=2+3y.
Multiply x with the brackets, getting xy-2x=2+3y. Move 3y to the left changing it’s sign, also for -2x to the right: xy-3y=2+2x.
Factor out y from (xy-3y) and get (3-x)y=2+2x - now divide both sides by (3-x) resulting in y=2+2x/3-x .
Answer:
a. 
b. x = 4 (see steps below)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the two polygons are similar, the sides are proportional to each other. Using a proportion, you can solve for 'x' using cross-multiplication and division:
Cross-multiply: 15(x + 3) = 21(x + 1)
Distribute: 15x + 45 = 21x + 21
Subtract '15x' from both sides: 15x + 45 - 15x = 21x + 21 - 15x or 45 = 6x + 21
Subtract '21' from both sides: 45 - 21 = 6x + 21 - 21 or 24 = 6x
Divide by 6 on both sides: 24/6 = 6x/6
Solve for x: x = 4
