Answer:

x=13

Step-by-step explanation:

set up the equation:

AXB+BXC=AXC

(2x+10)+(2x+10)=(6x-6)

calculate for x

x=13

12. Solve the following inequality.

Feliz [49]

Answer:

<u>C. The solution set is {x|x < 6}.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u> :

7x + 4 < 46

<u>Subtract 4 from both sides.</u>

7x + 4 - 4 < 46 - 4
7x < 42

<u>Divide 7 from both sides.</u>

7x/7 < 42/7
x < 6

<u>C. The solution set is {x|x < 6}.</u>

Is anyone able to figure this out, I can't do this

katrin [286]

Answer:

C. √2 - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If we draw a square from the center of the large circle to the center of one of the small circles, we can see that the sides of the square are equal to the radius of the small circle (see attached diagram)

Let r = the radius of the small circle

Using Pythagoras' Theorem $a^2+b^2=c^2$

(where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle)

to find the diagonal of the square:

$\implies r^2 + r^2 = c^2$

$\implies 2r^2 = c^2$

$\implies c=\sqrt{2r^2}$

So the diagonal of the square = $\sqrt{2r^2}$

We are told that the radius of the large circle is 1:

⇒ Diagonal of square + r = 1

$\implies \sqrt{2r^2}+r=1$

$\implies \sqrt{2r^2}=1-r$

$\implies 2r^2=(1-r)^2$

$\implies 2r^2=1-2r+r^2$

$\implies r^2+2r-1=0$

Using the quadratic formula to calculate r:

$\implies r=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\implies r=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{2^2-4(1)(-1)}}{2(1)}$

$\implies r=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{8}}{2}$

$\implies r=-1\pm\sqrt{2}$

As distance is positive, $r=-1+\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{2}-1$ only

The measures of the angles of a triangle are shown in the figure below. Solve for x.

Daniel [21]

Answer: x = 11 degrees

Step by step explanation:
Triangle rule states that all angles of a trundle must equal to 180 degrees. So we have two known angles, therefore we can subtract them from the 180 degree total.
180-109-43
=28
Now to solve for x we have the equation
4x-16=28
We add 16 to both sides to isolate x
4x=44
Now we divide each side by 4 to get rid of the coefficient
x=11
