Answer:

x = 18.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Gerald's answer is almost correct.  

He just needs to switch the 14 and the x.

it should be

24/x = 18/14

solve for x by cross multiplication

18x = (24)(14)

18x = 336

x = 18.7

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

x=-8.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write an equation. Twice x (2x) plus 7 (+7) is the same as (=) negative ten (-10), or 2x+7=-10. To solve, first subtract 7 from both sides to get 2x=-17. Then, divide both sides by 2 (x=-8.5).

Formulas A=bh/2 A=bh and I have 6in 4in 6in 10in and I have to find the area
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Lots of "ifs" here.

A=bh/2 is the formula for the area of a triangle.

A=bh is the formula for the area of a rectangle or a parallelogram.

If the 6 & 4 area the base & height of a rectangle, then (6)(4) = 24 in^2

If the 6 & 10 are the base and height of a triangle, then 1/2(6)(10) = 30 in^2

A sphere has a diameter of 1.2 meters. The sphere increased the diameter by 0.2 meters. What percent increase is the radius of t
Tasya [4]
So, the sphere went from 1.2 meters to 1.4 meters.
The radius will always be half of the diameter. So it went from .6 to .7.
Let's divide and see what percent .7 is of .6.
.7÷.6=1.166666666(repeating 6).
This means, it increased by about 16.7%, since it was not doubling, just going up.
