Alinara [238K]3 years ago

Answer:

\boxed {x = -1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of x:

15 + 3x = 3(2 - 2x)

-Use <u>Distributive Property</u>:

15 + 3x = 3(2 - 2x)

15 + 3x = 6 - 6x

-Take 6x and add it to 3x:

15 + 3x + 6x = 6 + 6x - 6x

15 + 9x = 6

-Subtract both sides by 15:

15 - 15 + 9x = 6 - 15

9x = -9

-Divide both sides by 9:

\frac{9x}{9} = \frac{-9}{9}

\boxed {x = -1}

Therefore, the value of x is -1.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

BD is opposite the 30° angle. The sine of 30° is 0.5. The sin of an angle in a right triangle is opposite/hypotenuse so BD = sin 30°x8.

Now you have two known lengths The third can be found by applying the Pythagorean theorem: BC²+BD²=CD², from which you can establish a numerical value for BC.

Consider kite WXYZ. What are the values of a and b? a = 4; b = 10. a = 4; b = 40, a = 8; b = 10, a = 8; b = 40
Brut [27]

Check the picture below.

let's recall that a kite is a quadrilateral, and thus is a polygon with 4 sides

sum of all interior angles in a polygon

180(n - 2)      n = number of sides

so for a quadrilateral that'd be 180( 4 - 2 ) = 360, thus

\bf 3b+70+50+3b=360\implies 6b+120=360\implies 6b=240 \\\\\\ b=\cfrac{240}{6}\implies b=40 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \overline{XY}=\overline{YZ}\implies 3a-5=a+11\implies 2a-5=11 \\\\\\ 2a=16\implies a=\cfrac{16}{2}\implies a=8
