Red : Yellow
6 : 8
(÷6) (÷6)
1 : 8/6
1 : 4/3

therefore, R = 4/3Y

Answer: R = 4/3Y

What is the value of x in the equation 2<br> (4x+)-(3x+2)- 8(9-x) = x

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

open the bracket

(4X+)-3X-2-72+X=X

4X+(-3X)-74+X=X

X-74+X=X

2X-74=X

then collect the term

-74=X-2X

-74=-X

divide by negative every side then you get

X=74

Determine the factors of x2 − 7x − 10. (5 points) a (x + 2)(x − 5) b Prime c (x − 2)(x + 5) d (x + 10)(x − 1)

Savatey [412]

For this case we must factor the following expression:

$x ^ 2-7x-10$

To factor, we must find two numbers that when added together give -7 and when multiplied by -10.

It is observed that there are not two whole numbers that comply with the aforementioned.

Thus, the following equation applies:

$x = \frac {-b \pm\sqrt{b ^ 2-4 (a) (c)}} {2 (a)}$

Where:

$a = 1\\b = -7\\c = -10$

We replace:

$x = \frac {- (- 7) \pm \sqrt {(- 7) ^ 2-4 (1) (- 10)}} {2 (1)}\\x = \frac {7 \pm \sqrt {49 + 40}} {2}\\x = \frac {7 \sqrt {89}} {2}$

So, the roots are:

$x_ {1} =\frac {7+ \sqrt {89}} {2}\\x_ {2} =\frac {7- \sqrt {89}} {2}$

Answer:

$x_ {1} =\frac {7+ \sqrt {89}} {2}\\x_ {2} =\frac {7- \sqrt {89}} {2}$

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-5,3)(−5,3) and is parallel to the line 3x-5y=303x−5y=30?

rosijanka [135]

The equation of the line which passes through the point (-5, 3) and is parallel to the equation 3x -5y = 30 is; 3x -5y = 30.

<h3>What is the equation of the line?</h3>

Since the line is parallel to the given line; 3x -5y = 30 whose slope is; 3/5.

Hence, since the two lines have equal slopes;

3/5 = (y-3)/(x-(-5))

3/5 = (y-3)/(x+5)

5y -15 = 3x +15

3x -5y = 30

Answer:

PB = 1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

PQ = 8 cm, BC = 10 cm and AB = 9 cm

∆ABC is similar to ∆APQ.

Therefore:

$\frac{AB}{AP} = \frac{BC}{PQ}$

Plug in the values

$\frac{9}{AP} = \frac{10}{8}$

Cross multiply

AP × 10 = 8 × 9

AP × 10 = 72

Divide both sides by 10

AP = 7.2

PB = AB - AP

PB = 9 - 7.2

PB = 1.8
