  • 9/10 yard of string ⇒ x

<u>Solve by cross-multiplication</u>

The figures in the picture are similar to each other find the value of x
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar figures have sides that are proportional.  Setting up a proportion for the sides of the figures will help solve for 'x':

\frac{small}{large}=\frac{3}{6}=\frac{(x-3)}{(x+1)}

Cross-multiply:  3(x + 1) = 6(x - 3)

Distribute:  3x + 3 = 6x - 18

Combine like terms:  21 = 3x

Solve for 'x':  x = 7

7. Factor the expression.<br> 42 - 64
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

-22 = -2^1×11^1

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following integer:

-22

Hint: | Is 22 divisible by 2?

The last digit of 22 is 2, which means it is even. Therefore 22 is divisible by 2:

22 = 2 11:

-22 = -2×11

Hint: | Now try to factor 11. Is 11 divisible by 2?

11 is not divisible by 2 since 11 is odd and 2 is even:

-22 = -2×11 (11 is not divisible by 2)

Hint: | Is 11 divisible by 3?

The sum of the digits of 11 is 1 + 1 = 2, which is not divisible by 3. This means 11 is not divisible by 3:

-22 = -2×11 (11 is not divisible by 2 or 3)

Hint: | Is 11 divisible by 5?

The last digit of 11 is not 5 or 0, which means 11 is not divisible by 5:

-22 = -2×11 (11 is not divisible by 2, 3 or 5)

Hint: | Is 11 divisible by 7?

Divide 7 into 11:

| | 1 | (quotient)

7 | 1 | 1 |  

- | | 7 |  

| | 4 | (remainder)

11 is not divisible by 7:

-22 = -2×11 (11 is not divisible by 2, 3, 5 or 7)

Hint: | Is 11 prime?

No primes less than 11 divide into it. Therefore 11 is prime:

-22 = -2×11

Hint: | Express -22 as a product of prime powers.

There is 1 copy of 2 and 1 copy of 11 in the product:

Answer: -22 = -2^1×11^1

Ann Zoe and Jim bought a present for ben. Ann cooperated with $12 less than Zoe and $16 less than Jim. If the cost of the presen
sergeinik [125]

Let A represent the amount Ann contributed, Z represent Zoe's contribution, and J represent Jim's contribution toward the present.

Ann (A): A

Zoe (Z): A = Z - 12 → Z = 12 + A

Jim (J): A = J - 16 → J = 16 + A

A + Z + J = 154

(A) + (12 + A) + (16 + A) = 154

3A + 28 = 154

3A = 126

A = 42

Ann (A): A = 42

Zoe (Z): Z = 12 + A = 12 + 42 = 54

Jim (J): J = 16 + A = 16 + 42 = 58

Answer: Ann=42, Zoe=54, Jim=58
