Answer:
<em>p</em> = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Happy to help.
When we have numbers in parenthesis, we generally want to deal with those first. However, we can hit a rough patch when a variable is in there. Consider this:
2(3 + 4) = 2(7), or 14.
But, the two can also be distributed into both numbers in the parenthesis, like this:
2(3 + 4) = 2*3 + 2*4
That leaves us with the same answer—14! We can apply this to a variable, and that will help us figure out 9(<em>p</em> - 4), or the left side of your equation you presented.
9(<em>p</em> - 4) = -18
9*<em>p</em> - 9*4 = -18
9<em>p</em> - 36 = -18
Add 36 on both sides to isolate the variable (in this case, <em>p)</em>
9<em>p</em> = -18 + 36
You can also write it like this; 9<em>p</em> = 36 - 18
9<em>p</em> = 18
Divide 9 to isolate <em>p</em>
<em>p</em> = 2
So, we would get (<em>p</em> = 2). Make sure to practice a few more questions like these to really get the hang of it—you'll be using this a lot in the future!
Good luck!
The complete question in the attached figure
we know that
the diagonals of a rhombus intersect to form right angles,
so
angle ACE is ----------> (90°-64°)-----------> 26°
ACE is the angle bisector of ACD, this means that ACD is ---------> 26 x 2 = 52°
The diagonals are angle bisectors to the opposite corners
so
ACD = ACB = 52°
and
BCD = 52 x 2 = 104°
For a rhombus, opposite angles are equivalent,
so
BAD = BCD = 104°
the answer is
angle BAD=104°
Answer:
x=7.4
Step-by-step explanation:
2.4+x=9.8
(x=9.8-2.4)
x=7.4
7.2>0.9(n+8.6)
multiply 0.9 by all in parentheses
7.2> (0.9*n) + (0.9*8.6)
7.2> 0.9n + 7.74
subtract 7.74 from both sides
-0.54> 0.9n
divide both sides by 0.9
-0.6> n
ANSWER: -0.6> n
