Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

5(2)^x=40

Divide each side by 5

5 /5 *(2)^x=40/5

2^x = 8

Rewriting 8 as 2^3

2^x = 2^3

The bases are the same so the exponents are the same

x=3

Given: PRST is a square

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

$(1-\sqrt{2})a^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider irght triangle PRS. By the Pythagorean theorem,

$PS^2=PR^2+RS^2\\ \\PS^2=a^2+a^2\\ \\PS^2=2a^2\\ \\PS=\sqrt{2}a$

Thus,

$MS=PS-PM=\sqrt{2}a-a=(\sqrt{2}-1)a$

Consider isosceles triangle MSC. In this triangle

$MS=MC=(\sqrt{2}-1)a.$

The area of this triangle is

$A_{MSC}=\dfrac{1}{2}MS\cdot MC=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot (\sqrt{2}-1)a\cdot (\sqrt{2}-1)a=\dfrac{(\sqrt{2}-1)^2a^2}{2}=\dfrac{(3-2\sqrt{2})a^2}{2}$

Consider right triangle PTS. The area of this triangle is

$A_{PTS}=\dfrac{1}{2}PT\cdot TS=\dfrac{1}{2}a\cdot a=\dfrac{a^2}{2}$

The area of the quadrilateral PMCT is the difference in area of triangles PTS and MSC:

$A_{PMCT}=\dfrac{(3-2\sqrt{2})a^2}{2}-\dfrac{a^2}{2}=\dfrac{(2-2\sqrt{2})a^2}{2}=(1-\sqrt{2})a^2$

Which two properties of equality could Zoe use to finish solving for x

7nadin3 [17]

3x-4= - 10
add both side 4 so its a addition property
3x=- 6
now divide both side 3 so it is a <span>division property.
so x=-2</span>
