7x - 1 + 6x - 1 = 180
add the x’s, add the numbers
13x - 2 = 180
add 2 to 180
13x = 182
divide 182 by 13
x = 14
I think the answer is B but i could be wrong
Answer:
44 units length
Step-by-step explanation:
The side splitter theorem states that if a line is parallel to a side of a triangle and the line intersects the other two sides, then this line divides those two sides proportionally. Therefore:
20/10 = x/22
20/10*22 = x
44 = x
Compound percentage reduction can be calculated by multiplying the initial number by (1-x)^t where x is the percentage reduction (/100, i.e. 1% reduction is 0.01), and t is the number of times it has reduced.
So:
a)

Where t is the number of weeks.
We can then just substitute in to work out the final pressure:
b) p = 45*0.94^6 =
31psi
