Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

12:18=2:3 multiply by four to get 8 as the first term

8:12

8:x

so x is 12.

Answer:

x = 12

Explanation:

8 : x

12 : 18

to find the value of x, we need to convert 12 into 8. since they both have a common factor of 4, we can divide 12 by 3 to get 4, and then multiply it by 2 to get 8. in numerical terms, this is:

12 ÷ 3 = 4

4 × 2 = 8

now, we can do the same for 18.

18 ÷ 3 = 6

6 × 2 = 12

thus, 12 : 18 is equivalent to 8 : 12. <u>x = 12</u>.

Only like sedans: 25- 15 = 10

Only like hatchbacks: 40-15 = 25

Like both: 15

Like none of them: 100-10-25-15 = 50

Dislike sedans: 100 - 10-15 = 75

Dislike hatchbacks: 100-25-15 = 60

So dislikes: sedans>hatchbacks

What is the length of the diameter of a circle inscribed in a right triangle with the length of hypotenuse c and the sum of the
jeyben [28]

Answer:

  diameter = m - c

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔABC, let ∠C be the right angle. The length of the tangents from point C to the inscribed circle are "r", the radius. Then the lengths of tangents from point A are (b-r), and those from point B have length (a-r).

The sum of the lengths of the tangents from points A and B on side "c" is ...

  (b-r) +(a-r) = c

  (a+b) -2r = c

Now, the problem statement defines the sum of side lengths as ...

  a+b = m

and, of course, the diameter (d) is 2r, so we can rewrite the above equation as ...

  m -d = c

  m - c = d . . . . add d-c

The diameter of the inscribed circle is the difference between the sum of leg lengths and the hypotenuse.

Fine the product mentally. [(x+1) (x-1)^2
Murljashka [212]
If the product is: [(x+1) (x-1)]^2 , the answer is:
[(x+1) (x-1)]^2 = [x^2-1]^2 = x^4-2x^2+1

How, do you divide big numbers.
Triss [41]

Answer:

hope this helps!   :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Partition the primary number of the profit (or the two first numbers if the past advance took another digit) by the principal digit of the divisor. Compose the consequence of this division in the space of the remainder. Increase the digit of the remainder by the divisor, compose the outcome underneath the profit and deduct it
