Solve for x.<br> 5<br> 10<br> 12<br> 13
zysi [14]

Answer: B)  4 & 1/6

Nice work on getting the correct answer.

============================================================

Explanation:

x is opposite the marked acute angle

5 is opposite the corresponding acute angle

So x and 5 are proportional to each other. We can form the ratio x/5

Similarly, 10 and 12 are proportional to one another. We can form the ratio 10/12.

Set those ratios equal to each other and solve for x

x/5 = 10/12

12x = 5*10 ... cross multiply

12x = 50

x = 50/12 ...... divide both sides by 12

x = (25*2)/(6*2)

x = 25/6

x = (24+1)/6

x = 24/6 + 1/6

x = 4 + 1/6

x = 4 & 1/6 which shows why <u>choice B</u> is the answer.

Side note: 25/6 = 4.167 approximately

3) Solve these problems that have more than one answer.
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

225

Step-by-step explanation:

Mary = 3x (3 times Carey)

Carey = x

Barry = x/2 (Because Carey read twice as many as Barry, it means he read half the amount Carey did)

3x + x + x/2 = 405

4x + x/2 = 405

8x/2 + x/2 (treat these as fractions) = 405

9x/2 = 405

9x = 810 (cross multiply)

x = 90

Mary = 3(90)      270

Carey =              90

Barry = 90/2      45

Mary - Barry

270 - 45 = 225

Hope this helps! :)

Which of the following statements are true?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Both graphs have been shifted and flipped

Both graphs have exactly one asymptote

Step-by-step explanation:

Choice A is incorrect since both graphs are not logarithmic functions. The graph of f(x) appears to be an exponential function.

Choice B is also incorrect since both graphs are not exponential functions.  The graph of g(x) does not belong to the exponential family since y can take on negative values.

When the graph of f(x) is shifted downwards and flipped, we can obtain the graph of g(x).

Both graphs have exactly one horizontal asymptote
