Answer:

X = 20 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Form Equation. Since M is parallel to N and both lines are being cut by transversal T, we can say that the alternate exterior angles are congruent, so we know that 7x - 3 = 6x + 17.

2.) Isolate x. Move all the x to one side and all of the numbers to another side by subtracting by 6x on both sides and adding by 3 on both sides. You will get that x = 20 degrees.

How can I factorise (2x cubed - 5x + 3) ?

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

$2x^3-5x+3=2x^3-2x-3x+3\\\\=2x(x^2-1)-3(x-1)\\\\=2x\underbrace{(x^2-1^2)}_{use\ (*)}-3(x-1)\ \ \ |(*)\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\=2x\underbrace{(x-1)}_{(**)}(x+1)-3\underbrace{(x-1)}_{(**)}\\\\=(x-1)[2x(x+1)-3]\\\\=(x-1)\underbrace{(2x^2+2x-3)}_{(***)}\\\\(***)\ 2x^2+2x-3\to a=2;\ b=2;\ c=-3\\\\x=\frac{b^2\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$therefore\\x=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{2^2-4(2)(-3)}}{2(2)}=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{4+24}}{4}=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{28}}{4}=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{4\cdot7}}{4}=\frac{-2\pm2\sqrt7}{4}\\\\=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt7}{2}\\\\so,\ the\ answer:\\\\(x-1)\cdot2\left(x-\frac{-1-\sqrt7}{2}\right)\left(x-\frac{-1+\sqrt7}{2}\right)\\\\=\boxed{(x-1)(2x+1+\sqrt7)\left(x+\frac{1-\sqrt7}{2}\right)}=\boxed{\frac{1}{2}(x-1)(2x+1+\sqrt7)(2x+1-\sqrt7)}$

12-packs of Skwunch apple juice cost $3.00 after a 40% discount. Which equation would allow you to find the original price of th

GaryK [48]

Let x be the original price.

Discount percentage = 40%

Price after discount = $3

So, x - $\frac{40}{100} x$ = 3

$\frac{100x-40x}{100}$ = 3

$\frac{60x}{100}$ = 3

$x = 3(\frac{100}{60} )$

$x=\frac{100}{20}$

x = 5

Hence, the equation that would allow us to find the original price is 0.6x = 3.

Simplify : (-7/18 × 15/-7) - (1 × 1/4) + (1/2 × 1/4)

bixtya [17]

Answer:

17/24

Step-by-step explanation:

This expression simplifies to the following:

-7 15 1 1

---- * ----- - ----- + -----

18 -7 4 8

Reducing the product, we get

15 1

-------- - -----

18 8

and this simplifies further:

5 1

----- - -----

6 8

The LCD is 24. Thus, we have:

20 3 17

------ - ----- = -----
