The angles in a triangle are represented by 5x, 8x, and 2x+9. What is the value of x?

Ahat [919]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of any triangle must add up to 180°.  Since we have the expressions for each angle:  5x, 8x, and (2x +9), we can solve for the variable of 'x' by adding the expressions together and setting them equal to 180:

5x + 8x + (2x +9) = 180

Combine like terms:  15x + 9 = 180

Use inverse operations: 15x + 9 - 9 = 180 - 9

                                                     15x = 171  or x = 11.4

Check:  5(11.4) + 8(11.4) + 2(11.4) + 9 = 57 + 91.2 + 22.8 + 9 = 180

There are 10 roller coasters at 6 flags, and you only have time to ride 3 before the park closes. How many different ways can yo
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

  120

Step-by-step explanation:

If order doesn't matter, there are 10 ways to chose the first ride, 9 ways to choose the second, and 8 ways to choose the third. This product (720) has you riding the same 3 coasters in 6 different orders. Dividing by 6 gives ...

  720/6 = 120 different combinations of roller coasters

_____

This number might be written as 10C3 (choose 3 from 10). The meaning of that notation is ...

  nCk = n!/(k!(n-k)!)

  10C3 = 10!/(3!·7!) = 10·9·8/(3·2·1) = 120

The perimeter of the triangle is 40 units.Which of the following equations could be used to find the value of x?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

13x + 112 = 320.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides:

1/2 x + 3/8 x + 11 + 3/4 x + 3 = 40

1/2 x + 3/8 x  + 3/4 x + 3 + 11 = 40

1/2 x + 3/8 x  + 3/4 x + 14 = 40

Multiply through by 8 to remove the fractions:

4x + 3x + 6x  + 14 = 40

13x + 112 = 320.

The diameter of this beach ball is 12 inches.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

288π or 904.78

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the diameter of this beach ball is 12 inches and we want to determine how much air it can hold using the formula for the volume of a sphere which is \frac{4}{3} × π × r³ where 'r' is the radius. In the question we are given the diameter not the radius but we can half the diameter to find the radius so 12 ÷ 2 = 6. The radius of the beach ball is 6 inches so let's work out how much air it can hold.

Volume = \frac{4}{3} × π × r³

→ Let's substitute in the values

Volume = \frac{4}{3} × π × 6³

→ Simplify

Volume = \frac{4}{3} × π × 216

→ Simplify further

Volume = 288π or 904.78
