Which set of values for x makes the inequality 12−x<7 true

Mathematics
1 answer:
kozerog [31]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

\{x:x>5\}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

12 - x < 7

Required

Values of x that make it true

First: solve the inequality.

12 - x < 7

Collect Like Terms

- x < 7-12

- x < -5

Multiply both sides by -1

-1 * - x < -5 * -1

x > 5 --- The inequality changes when multiplied by a negative value

So, the solution implies that the value of x is greater than 5 (i.e. 6, 7, 8..)

Hence, the set is:

\{x:x>5\}

In the isosceles △ABC m∠ACB=120° and AD is an altitude to leg BC . What is the distance from D to base AB , if CD=4cm?
snow_lady [41]

If ΔACB is an isosceles triangle, then ∠A ≅ ∠B and AC ≅ CB

Since ∠C = 120° and ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°, then ∠A = 30° and ∠B = 30°

Next, look at ΔADB.  ∠A + ∠D + ∠B = 180°, so ∠A + 90° + 30° = 180° ⇒ ∠A = 30°

Now look at ΔADC.  Since ∠A = 30° in ΔACB, and ∠A = 60° in ΔADB, then ∠A = 30° in ΔADC <em>per angle addition postulate.</em>

Now that we have shown that ΔADB and ΔADC are 30-60-90 triangles, we can use that formula to calculate the side lengths.

CD = 4 cm (given) so AC = 2(4 cm) = 8 cm

Since AC ≅ BC, then BC = 8 cm. Therefore, BD = 4 + 8 = 12 <em>by segment addition postulate.</em>

Lastly, look at ΔBHD.  Since ∠B = 30° and ∠H = 90°, then ∠D = 60°. So, ΔBHD is also a 30-60-90 triangle.

BD = 12 cm, so HD = \frac{12}{2}cm = 6 cm

Answer: 6 cm

How can you tell that −10 and −20 are solutions to this inequality, but 10 is not? 3n − 40 &lt; −5n + 8
pochemuha

Step-by-step explanation:

-10 or -20 satisfies the equation.

But when you substitute 10 in:

30-40<-50+8

-10<-42(wrong)

it's wrong

Find all solutions in the interval (0,2pi) you should get kpi and pi/4 but how do you get there
Ket [755]

Add sin(x) to both sides

tan(x)sin(x)=sin(x)

Divide sin(x) from both sides

tan(x)=1

now you just have to figure out where tan(x)=1. you can figure this out from there by looking at the unit circle.

The ratio of the measures of the three angle in a triangle is 15:8:13. Find the measure of the three angles.
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

a=15x; b=8x; c=13x

180°=a+b+c=15x+8x+13x=36x

=> x=180÷36=5

=> a=15×5=75°; b=8×5=40°; c=13×5=65°
