Hey. Good afternoon.

2x + 17 = 89
2x = 89-17
2x = 72
x = 72/2
x = 36 

Sorry my bad english, i'm Brazilian.

Hi there! The answer is C.

To find our answer we need to solve the equality given in your question.

2x + 17 = 89
Subtract 17 from both sides

2x = 72
Divide both sides by 2

x = 72 / 2 = 36.
Therefore there are 36 double-occupied apartments.

A laboratory designed a radio telescope with a diameter of 320 feet and a maximum depth of 46 feet. Points on graph are: (-160,4
goblinko [34]
 the shape of the telescope is said to be a parabola. In this case, t<span>he general form which we will pattern our equation is  y- k= 4a(x – h)^2  
 (h,k) or vertex = (0,0) 
y = 4ax^2
We substitute x = 320/2 = 160, y = 46 

46 = 4a (160)^2 
46 = 4a (25600) 
4a = 23/12800 
hence the equation is </span>y = (<span>23/12800)</span>x^2

Find the value of x, o is the centroid
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

In the triangle O is the centroid.  

Now, we know that the centroid divides the medians in the 2 : 1 ratio that means the distance from the centroid to the vertex and the distance from the centroid to the opposite side remains in 2 : 1 ratio.

So, from the given diagram we can write  

\frac{3x}{2x - 7} = \frac{2}{1}

⇒ 3x = 4x - 14

⇒ x = 14 (Answer)
