Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sides are the same, the base angles must be the same

8x+2 = 10x-16

Subtract 8x from each side

8x+2-8x =10x-16-8x

2 = 2x-16

Add 16 to each side

2+16 = 2x-16+16

18 =2x

Divide by 2

18/2 =2x/2

9 =x

Answer:

a = 1, b = 2, c = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$a + \frac{1}{b + \frac{1}{c} } = \frac{10}{7} \\ \\ a + \frac{1}{b + \frac{1}{c} } = 1 + \frac{3}{7} \\ \\ a + \frac{1}{b + \frac{1}{c} } = 1 + \frac{1}{\frac{7}{3} } \\ \\ a + \frac{1}{b + \frac{1}{c} } = 1 + \frac{1}{2 + \frac{1}{3} } \\ \\ equating \: like \: terms \: on \: both \: sides \\ \\ a = 1 \\ \\ b = 2 \\ \\ c = 3$

A coral reef grows

Ksenya-84 [330]

If a coral reef grows at a steady rate every week, then to find how much it grows in 12 weeks, we need to multiply the growth rate by 12 weeks. Also, since we want our answer in centimeters, we can change the growth rate to centimeters. 0.15m = 15cm

15cm * 12 = 180cm

The coral reef will grow 180cm in 12 weeks.
