Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

½(x-2) = 8 + 5x

Multiply both sides by 2

2⋅½(x-2) = 2(8 + 5x)

1(x-2) = 2(8 + 5x)

Apply the distributive rule

x - 2 = 16 + 10x

Subtract x from both sides

-2 = 16 + 9x

Subtract 16 from both sides

-18 = 9x

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x

-18 ÷ 9 = 9x ÷ 9

-2 = x

The American Academy Dermatology says that hair grows about 6 inches per year. How much hair can you expect to grow after 3 year
Xelga [282]
About 18 inches / 1 foot and 6 inches

If hair grows about 6 inches every year, and we want to find out how much will grow in 3 years, we multiply.

6 x 3 = 18 inches

Then we can simplify it because there are 12 inches in a foot

18/12 = 1 6/12

How to find the inverse of each function <br> for example like this one: <br> h(x)=5/4x
Anton [14]
First rewrite it like this
1. y=5/4x
Then, make X the subject
2.4x=5/y
x=(5/y)÷4
3. Once done, simply replace x with h(x)^-1 and y with x
h(x)^-1= (5/x)÷4
Sorry I'm not very good at rearranging formula but hope this helps :)

<h3>What is a Triangle ?</h3>

A triangle is a polygon with three sides , three angles and three vertices.

According to the Proportionality Theorem

When a line is parallel to one side and intersects the other lines at two different points then it divides both the line in similar ratio.

As in the given figure DC is parallel to AP ,

then RD : DP = RC:CA

42:15 = x: 10

42/15 = x / 10

x = 42 * 10 /15

x = 28

Therefore the value of x is 28 .
