Solve for x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
o-na [289]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

BC = x + 19

ST = x + 29

Required:

Value of x

Solution:

Midsegment theorem states that the midsegment of a triangle = ½ of the length of its third side

Thus:

BC = ½(ST)

Substitute

x + 19 = ½(x + 29)

Multiply both sides by 2

2(x + 19) = x + 29

2x + 38 = x + 29

Collect like terms

2x - x = -38 + 29

x = -9

Help pls if u can pls
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Infinite solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your system by substitution.

3y=9x+15;3x−y=−5

Rewrite equations:

3x−y=−5;3y=9x+15

Step: Solve 3x−y=−5 for y:

3x−y=−5

3x−y+−3x=−5+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)

−y=−3x−5

−y   −1   −1=−3x−5

(Divide both sides by -1)

y=3x+5

Step: Substitute 3x+5 for y in 3y=9x+15:

3y=9x+15

3(3x+5)=9x+15

9x+15=9x+15(Simplify both sides of the equation)

9x+15+−9x=9x+15+−9x(Add -9x to both sides)

15=15

15+−15=15+−15(Add -15 to both sides)

0=0

Solve this problem???​
Svetllana [295]

The denominator of the first term is a difference of squares, such that

4<em>a</em> ² - <em>b</em> ² = (2<em>a</em>)² - <em>b</em> ² = (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)

So you can write the fractions as

(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²)/((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)/(2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)

Multiply through the second fraction by 2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em> to get a common denominator:

(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²)/((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²/((2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>))

((4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²) / ((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>))

Expand the numerator:

(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²

(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (4<em>a</em> ² - 4<em>ab</em> + <em>b</em> ²)

4<em>ab</em>

<em />

So the original expression reduces to

4<em>ab</em> / ((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>))

or

4<em>ab</em> / (4<em>a</em> ² - <em>b</em> ²)

upon condensing the denominator again.
