Answer: The value of x= 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In triangle EFG, angle E equals 8x-16, angle F equals x+8, and angle G equals 2x-10.

The sum of all angles of a triangle is 180°.

Therefore, in triangle EFG

∠E + ∠F +∠G= 180°

⇒ 8x-16 +x+8+ 2x-10 = 180

⇒ 11x-18= 180

⇒ 11x = 180+18

⇒11x=198

⇒ x= 18 [Divide both sides by 11]

Hence, the value of x= 18

Match the expressions with their equivalent simplified expressions.

Tasya [4]

Answer:

$\sqrt[4]{\frac{16x^6y^4}{81x^2y^8}}\rightarrow\frac{2x}{3y}\\\sqrt[4]{\frac{81x^2y^{10}}{81x^6y^6}} \rightarrow\frac{3y}{2x}\\\sqrt[3]{\frac{64x^8y^7}{125x^2y^{10}}}\rightarrow\frac{4x^2}{5y}\\\sqrt[5]{\frac{243x^{17}y^{16}}{32x^7y^{21}}}\rightarrow\frac{3x^2}{2y}\\\sqrt[5]{\frac{32x^{12}y^{15}}{243x^7y^{10}}} \rightarrow\frac{2xy}{3}\\\sqrt[4]{\frac{16x^{10}y^{9}}{256x^2y^{17}}}\rightarrow\frac{x}{2y}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt[4]{\frac{16x^6y^4}{81x^2y^8}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{(2^4)(x^{6-2})(y^{4-8})}{(3^4)}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{2^4x^4y^{-4}}{3^4}} =\frac{2xy^{-1}}{3}=\frac{2x}{3y}$

$\sqrt[4]{\frac{81x^2y^{10}}{81x^6y^6}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{(3^4)(x^{2-6})(y^{10-6})}{(2^4)}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{3^4x^{-4}y^{4}}{2^4}} =\frac{3x^{-1}y^1}{3}=\frac{3y}{2x}$

$\sqrt[3]{\frac{64x^8y^7}{125x^2y^{10}}} =\sqrt[3]{\frac{(4^3)(x^{8-2})(y^{7-10})}{(5^3)}} =\sqrt[3]{\frac{4^3x^6y^{-3}}{5^3}} =\frac{4x^2y^{-1}}{5}=\frac{4x^2}{5y}$

$\sqrt[5]{\frac{243x^{17}y^{16}}{32x^7y^{21}}} =\sqrt[5]{\frac{(3^5)(x^{17-7})(y^{16-21})}{(2^5)}} =\sqrt[5]{\frac{3^5x^{10}y^{-5}}{2^5}} =\frac{3x^2y^{-1}}{2}=\frac{3x^2}{2y}$

$\sqrt[5]{\frac{32x^{12}y^{15}}{243x^7y^{10}}} =\sqrt[5]{\frac{(2^5)(x^{12-7})(y^{15-10})}{(3^5)}} =\sqrt[5]{\frac{2^5x^{5}y^{5}}{3^5}} =\frac{2x^1y^{1}}{3}=\frac{2xy}{3}$

$\sqrt[4]{\frac{16x^{10}y^{9}}{256x^2y^{17}}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{(2^4)(x^{10-2})(y^{9-17})}{(4^4)}} =\sqrt[4]{\frac{2^4x^{8}y^{-8}}{4^4}} =\frac{2x^{1}y^{-1}}{4}=\frac{x}{2y}$

What is the constant of variation, k,

ValentinkaMS [17]

The K-constant variation is the factor of the increase-decrease relationship between the x-variable and y-variable which can be stated as y=k*x or x=y/k<span>. For example, if y variable equal 5 and the x variable equal 2 then the k-constant variation equal 2 (calculation y=k*x --> 5=2*2.5). This constant shows the relationship between the variables.</span>

peter has 6/7 of a stack of baseball cards left. If he is planning on splitting what he has left into stacks that are each 3/28

DIA [1.3K]

<h3>Answer: 8</h3>

=======================================================

Work Shown:

Let's say there are 28 cards in a full stack.

6/7 = 24/28 after multiplying top and bottom by 4

Since he has 24/28 of a stack left, this means he has 24 cards left.

He wants to arrange the remaining cards into piles so that each pile consists of 3/28 of a full stack. In other words, he wants each pile to have 3 cards.

So this must mean he will get 24/3 = 8 piles

(8 piles)*(3 cards per pile) = 8*3 = 24 cards total
