Answer:

x =5

step-by-step explanation:

combine the like terms:

2 -7x -3x = -8x -8

= 2 -10x = -8x -8

= -10x +2 = -8x -8

= -10x +2 -2 = -8x -8 -2

= -10x = -8x -10

= -10x +8x = -8x -10 +8x

= -2x = -10

= -2x/-2 = -10/-2

simplify

x = 5

Solve the following triangle in which given sides are<br> a=7 b=7 c=9
blagie [28]
We have an isosceles triangle;
A=opposite angle side a.
B=opposite angle side b.
C=opposite angle side c.

A=B
Method 1:

We can divide the isosceles triangle in two right triangles,
hypotenuse=7
side=9/2=4.5

B=A=arccossine (4.5/7)=49.994799...º≈50º
C/2=90º-50º=40º  ⇒ C=2*40º=80º

Answer:
a=7;  A=50º
b=7;  B=50º
<span>c=9;  C=80º

Method 2:
Law of cosines:
a²=b²+c²-2bcCosA  ⇒CosA=(a²-b²-c²)/(-2bc)
CosA=(49-49-81) / (-126)=0.642857
A=arco cos (81/126)≈50º

B=A=50º

A+B+C=180º
50º+50º+C=180º
C=180º-100º
C=80º

Answer:

</span>a=7;  A=50º
b=7;  B=50º
<span>c=9;  C=80º</span>

Need help!!! I dont get it
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

4/3π - √3

Step-by-step explanation:

Pie piece of circle is area of circle x portion of circle

πr²*x/360 = π(2)²*120/360 = 4/3π

Then you must subract the non-right triangle area

1/2ab sin C = 1/2(2)(2) sin 120 = 2 * √3/2 = √3

4/3π - √3

What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point
kiruha [24]
This is going to be an long answer, so I'm putting the answer first. y=3x-7

First, you have to find the equation of the line given. You can use point slope form for that. You can see that the slope is -1/3, and it goes through (2,2). So, the equation would be
y-2=-1/3(x-2)
Which simplifies to
y=-1/3x+8/3

Now, we can get on to finding the actual answer. The slope of a line perpendicular would be the negative reciprocal of the original slope. That just means you flip it and multiply it by -1. So, the slope of the new line is 3. Now you can use point slope form again and make an equation, which is
y+1=3(x-2)
Which simplifies to
y=3x-7

Please don't ask me why the slope is the negative reciprocal, or how they came up with the formula for the point slope form. I DON'T KNOW. If you want to know so bad you would give up chick-fil-A for the rest of your life, there's always google.
