Answer:

JK=12

KI=16

Step-by-step explanation:

K\in\ [JI]\ \Rightarrow\ |JK|+| KI |=|KI|\\\\x^2-4x+3x-2=28\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ x^2-x-30=0\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ x^2+5x-6x-30=0\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ x(x+5)-6(x+5)=0\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ (x+5)(x-6)=0\\\\x=-5\ (excluded)\ or\x=6\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ \\|JK|=x^2-4x=6^2-4*6=36-24=12\\|KI|=3x-2=3*6-2=18-2=16\\\\Proof: 12+16=28\\

A convex hexagon has interior angles with measures x^0, (5x - 103); (2x + 60), (7x - 31), (6x -6), and (9x - 100), what is the v
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

x = 30.66°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a hexagon is 720°

Each angles are x^0, (5x - 103); (2x + 60), (7x - 31), (6x -6), and (9x - 100),

we add all these angles together

x^0 + (5x - 103) + (2x + 60) + (7x - 31) + (6x -6) + (9x - 100) = 720

x^0  = 1

1 + (5x - 103) + (2x + 60) + (7x - 31) + (6x -6) + (9x - 100)

1 + 5x - 103 +2x + 60 + 7x -31 + 6x - 6 + 9x - 100 = 720

1 - 103 + 60 - 31 - 6 - 100 + 5x + 2x + 7x + 6x + 9x = 720

1 - 180 + 29x = 720

-179 + 29x = 720

29x = 720 + 179 = 889

x = 889/29 = 30.655 ≅ 30.66°

What is value of x in the equation 6x+7-2x=3+5x-9
topjm [15]

Answer: x = 13

Step-by-step explanation: First, we simplify the equation to get 4x + 7 = 5x - 6. Then, from there, we subtract 7 on both sides to get 4x = 5x - 13. Then we subtract 5x from both sides, which would give us -x = -13. Finally, we can divide both sides by -1 (because remember, x = 1) to get that x = 13. Hope this helps!
