Answer: x = 9
Remember: cross-multiply (product of the means equals the product of the extremes) to solve this proportion. It forms a 'cross'-- hence its name.
4 8 4 and 2 are the extremes
------ = ------ 8 and x - 8 are the means
x - 8 2
(4)(2) = 8(x - 8) Simplify
8 = 8(x - 8) Distributive Property
8 = 8x - 64 Add 64 to both sides
72 = 8x Divide by 8 for both sides
9 = x Answer!
x = 9 Answer!
Answer:
4³×5² or 4³5²
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because there are three consecutive 4s, so you have to put the 4 into exponential form 3 times. So the exponential form for the 4s will be 4³. There are also 2 consecutive 5s so you have to include 2 in the exponential form. So, the exponential form of the 5s is 5². Now you have to somehow multiply them together. You could do this by putting a multiplication sign, (4³×5²) or you could bunch them together and it will mean the same thing (4³5²).
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
-11 =x
Step-by-step explanation:
-1 = (5+x) /6
multiply by 6
-6 = 5+x
-11= x
Hello there i hope you are having a good day :) Your question : The sum of twice a number and half the number is 10.
Answer would be : 2x + x/2 = 10
Hopefully that helps you ❤
Answer:
30°, 60°
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the measure of the smaller angle in degrees. Then the larger unknown angle is 2x, and the sum of the angles in the triangle is 180°:
x + 2x + 90° = 180° . . . the sum of the angles in the triangle
3x = 90° . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 90°, collect terms
x = 30° . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3; this is the smaller angle
2x = 60° . . . . . . . . . . . .this is the larger angle
The two angles that are not the right angle are 30° and 60°.
