Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If angles C and B have equal degrees then the side AC is also equal to  side AB in length and you can make their equations equal as well and solve for X.

2x+16=7x+6

get X's all on same side and the constants all on the other side,  

-2x +2x+16=7x+6+-2x

The X's on the left cancel out.

16=5x+6

-6+16=5x+6+-6

add -6 to each side.  On the right the 6 is now cancelled out.

10=5X

divide each side by 5 to cancel out the 5

10/5= 5X/5

2=X .  ANSWER

Solve for x, −2 (4x+4) −3x − 2 = 34 help needed, thanks!
Arada [10]

Hey there!

The answer to your question is -2 \frac{3}{11}

-2(4x+4) - 3x -2= 34       Write the equation

-8x - 8 - 3x - 2 = 34           Distribute -2

-11x-10 = 34                      Combine like terms

-11x = 24                              Add 10 to both sides

-2 \frac{3}{11}                                         Divide both sides by -11

Hope it helps and have a great day!

5. The recursive algorithm given below can be used to compute gcd(a, b) where a and b are non-negative integer, not both zero.
s2008m [1.1K]

Implementating the given algorithm in python 3, the greatest common divisors of <em>(</em><em>124</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>244</em><em>)</em><em> </em>and <em>(</em><em>4424</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>2111</em><em>)</em><em> </em>are 4 and 1 respectively.

The program implementation is given below and the output of the sample run is attached.

def gcd(a, b):

<em>#initialize</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>function</em><em> </em><em>named</em><em> </em><em>gcd</em><em> </em><em>which</em><em> </em><em>takes</em><em> </em><em>in</em><em> </em><em>two</em><em> </em><em>parameters</em><em> </em>

if a>b:

<em>#checks</em><em> </em><em>if</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>greater</em><em> </em><em>than</em><em> </em><em>b</em>

return gcd (b, a)

<em>#if</em><em> </em><em>true</em><em> </em><em>interchange</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>Parameters</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>Recall</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>function</em><em> </em>

elif a == 0:

return b

elif a == 1:

return 1

elif((a%2 == 0)and(b%2==0)):

<em>#even</em><em> </em><em>numbers</em><em> </em><em>leave</em><em> </em><em>no</em><em> </em><em>remainder</em><em> </em><em>when</em><em> </em><em>divided</em><em> </em><em>by</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>checks</em><em> </em><em>if</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>b</em><em> </em><em>are</em><em> </em><em>even</em><em> </em>

return 2 * gcd(a/2, b/2)

elif((a%2 !=0) and (b%2==0)):

<em>#checks</em><em> </em><em>if</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>odd</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>B</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>even</em><em> </em>

return gcd(a, b/2)

else :

return gcd(a, b-a)

<em>#since</em><em> </em><em>it's</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>recursive</em><em> </em><em>function</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>recalls</em><em> </em><em>the function</em><em> </em><em>with </em><em>new</em><em> </em><em>parameters</em><em> </em><em>until</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>certain</em><em> </em><em>condition</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>satisfied</em><em> </em>

print(gcd(124, 244))

print()

<em>#leaves</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>space</em><em> </em><em>after</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>first</em><em> </em><em>output</em><em> </em>

print(gcd(4424, 2111))
