Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

I take it that the question is What is the value of x.

... Every triangle has a measure of 180o so that is what is on the right side of the equation.

... the Vertex of an isosceles triangle has a unique value. There is only one angle with a measure of 42.

... The Base angles are equal. And there are 2 of them.

Equation

2x + 3 + 2x + 3 + 42 = 180o      

Solution

Combine like terms

2x + 2x + 3 + 3 + 42 = 180  Show the like terms as 1 term for the xs and 1 for the pure numbers on the left.

4x + 48 = 180   Subtract 48 from both sides

4x = 180 - 48    combine

4x = 132            Divide by 4

4x/4 = 132/4

x = 33

Answer

x = 33

2x + 3 = 2*33 + 3 = 69

So the three angles are

69 + 69 + 42

Check

69 + 69 + 42

138 + 42

180 as it should.

Ratio of two volume cylinders (Geometry)
Masteriza [31]
The ratio of the lengths is 75 : 25 or 3 : 1 

The ratio of and area is the square of this: ie 9 : 1 or 75^2 : 25^2
(In working out the area the radius is squared)

The ratio of the volumes is the cube of this: ie 27 : 1 or 75^3 : 25^3
(In working out the volume the radius is cubed)

Hopefully this explains it

Amy uses two thirds of a yard fabric for each pillow she makes how many yards of fabric will she need in order to make 8 pillows
Aneli [31]
2/3 yard= 1 pillow

To find the total yards needed for 8 pillows, multiply 2/3 yard per pillow by 8 pillows.

= 2/3 * 8
multiply numerators; multiply denominators

= (2*8)/(3*1)

= 16/3
convert to a mixed number

= 5 1/3 yards needed


ANSWER: 5 1/3 yards is needed to make 8 pillows.

Hope this helps! :)

The length of a rectangle exceeds its breadth by 7cm. if the length is decreased by 4cm and the breadth is increased by 3cm, the
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

16cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the breadth = x

The length exceeds = x + 7

The breadth increased = x + 3

Because it said the length decreased by 4 so, the length would be:

x + 7 - 4 = x + 3

Original area:

We learn that:

area = length * breadth

x*(x+7) = (x+3)*(x+3)

x^2 + 7x = (x+3)^2

x^2 + 7x = x^2 + 6x + 9 (We also learn that (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2

x^2 - x^2 + 7x - 6x = 9

x = 9 (so the breadth = 9)

The length = x + 7 = 9+7 = 16(cm)

Hope this help you :3
