sukhopar [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

8x - 2(x - 7) = 20 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

8x - 2x + 14 = 20, that is

6x + 14 = 20 ( subtract 14 from both sides )

6x = 6 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 1

Given: △ABC, D∈ AC m∠ABC=m∠BDA AB=2, AC=4 Find: AD and DC
Simora [160]

Answer:

The value of AD=1 and DC=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: ΔABC, D∈ AC m∠ABC=m∠BDA,  AB=2, AC=4

Diagram: Please find attachment.

To find: AD=? and DC=?

Calculation:

In ΔABC and ΔADB

   ∠ABC=∠ADB          (Given)

        ∠A=∠A               (Common)

Therefore,  ΔABC ≈ ΔADB  by AA similarity

If two triangles are similar then ratio their corresponding sides are equal

Therefore,

\dfrac{AD}{AB}=\dfrac{AB}{AC}

where, AD=?, AB=2, AC=4

\dfrac{AD}{2}=\dfrac{2}{4}

AD=\dfrac{2\times 2}{4}=1

AD=1

AD+DC=AC

1+DC=4

DC=4-1

DC=3

Hence, The value of AD=1 and DC=3

The latter is leaning against the building so that the distance from the ground to the top of the ladder is 9 feet less than the
Rama09 [41]

Complete question :

The latter is leaning against the building so that the distance from the ground to the top of the ladder is 9 feet less than the length of the ladder finally put the ladder in the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the building 15 feet. Find length of the ladder.

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

From Pythagoras :

Hypotenus = sqrt(opposite² + adjacent²)

From the diagram

l = sqrt((l-9)² + 15²)

l² = (l² - 18x + 81 + 225)

Square both sides

l² = l² - 18x + 306

l² - l² = 306 - 18x

18l = 306

l = 306/18

l = 17

Using the given equation find the missing coordinates of the points and then find the slope of the line for each equation
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

  A(2/9, 1/3)

  B(2/3, -1/3)

  slope = -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph can show the coordinates of interest: A(2/9, 1/3); B(2/3, -1/3).

Rearranging the equation to slope-intercept form, we have ...

  3y = -4.5x +2

  y = -1.5x +2/3

The slope is -1.5.
