60 (x + 20) 3x what is the value of x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Whitepunk [10]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Equation at the end of step 1

Simplifying

60(x + 20) = 3x

Reorder the terms:

60(20 + x) = 3x

(20 * 60 + x * 60) = 3x

(1200 + 60x) = 3x

Solving

1200 + 60x = 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

1200 + 60x + -3x = 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 60x + -3x = 57x

1200 + 57x = 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

1200 + 57x = 0

Add '-1200' to each side of the equation.

1200 + -1200 + 57x = 0 + -1200

Combine like terms: 1200 + -1200 = 0

0 + 57x = 0 + -1200

57x = 0 + -1200

Combine like terms: 0 + -1200 = -1200

57x = -1200

Divide each side by '57'.

x = -21.05263158

Simplifying

x = -21.05263158

The distance to the nearest exit door is no more than 200 feet.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the distance of the nearest exit door is no more than the 200 feet. so this can be represented using an inequality.

since it is no more than 200 means the maximum it can be is 200 feet .

Now we are representing the distance using the variable d and we have established that the maximum value of d can be 200 so it can represented

by this inequality

d\leq 200

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
70000- ten thousand
8000- thousand
000- hundred
00- tens
0- ones

so look at the 7 and if the number on the right is more than 4 you give the ten thousand a new number ; 80000

In ABC, A = 4x, B = 3x + 1, C = 7x + 11. List the sides of ABC in order from shortest to longest.
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Sum of all angles of a triangle is equal to 180°. Therefore,

A + B + C = 180

Given that, A = 4x, B = 3x + 1, C = 7x + 11.

Hence, we can set up an equation as following:

4x + 3x + 1 + 7x + 11 = 180

14x + 12 = 180 Combine the like terms.

14x + 12 -12 = 180 - 12 Subtract 12 from each sides.

14x = 168

\frac{14x}{14} =\frac{168}{14} Divide each sides by 14.

So, x= 12.

Now by plug in x=12 in the given expressions of A, B and C we can get the measure of eah angles of the triangle. Therefore,

A = 4x = 4(12) = 48

B= 3x + 1= 3(12) + 1 = 36 + 1 = 37

C= 7x + 11 = 7(12) + 11 = 84 + 11 =95

From the above result we can see that C is the largest angle and B is the smallest angle.

There is a relationship of a triangle which state that the largest side is opposite side of the largest angle and similarly smallest side is opposite side of the smallest angle.

Here AB is the opposite side of the largest angle C. So, AB is the largest side.

Similarly AC is the smallest side.

So, the order from shortest to longest is B: AC, BC, AB

Can someone help me with this two column proofs? -this one is confusing to me
Shalnov [3]

Perpendicular bisectors have a particular property: if AB is a perpendicular bisector of CD, then every point lying on AB has the same distance from C and D.

In your case, we have that every point lying on AC has the same distance from B and D.

So, in particular, we have EB=ED, because E lies on AC.

Moreover, since AC is a perpendicular bisector, it is the height of the triangle (if we choose BD as base), and it bisects BD: this means that the triangle is isosceles, so AD=AB.

This means that triangles ABE and ADE have:

  • AD=AB because ABD is isosceles
  • EB=ED because AC is the perpendicular bisector of BD
  • AE in common

So, their sides are all equal, and thus they are congruent.
