Answer:

the number is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure what you mean by "translate" but here is my solution to the problem.

first write the question as a equation: 3x - 5 = 16

then add 5 to both sides: 3x = 21

divide both sides by 3: x = 7

double check

3*7 - 5 = 16

the number is 7

Answer:

The translation is 3x - 5 = 16 and the missing value is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation: 3x - 5 = 16

=> 3x - 5 = 16
=> 3x = 21
=> x = 7

Hence, the translation is 3x - 5 = 16 and the missing value is 7.

Hoped this helped.

<h3>Answer: C) incenter</h3>

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

Explanation:

If you were to intersect the angle bisectors (at least two of them), then you would locate the incenter. The incenter is the center of the incircle which is a circle where it is as large as possible, but does not spill over and outside the triangle. Therefore this circle fits snugly inside the triangle.

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

extra notes:

* The centroid is found by intersecting at least two median lines

* The circumcenter is found by intersecting at least two perpendicular bisector lines

* The orthocenter is found by intersecting at least two altitude lines

* The incenter is always inside the triangle; hence the "in" as part of the name. The centroid shares this property as well because the medians are completely contained within any triangle. The other two centers aren't always guaranteed to be inside the triangle.

* The red lines cut each angle of the triangle into two equal or congruent pieces.

Answer:

The rate of plane in still air is 834 km/hr and the rate of wind is 80 km/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:

The airplane travels 6032 km in 8 hours against the wind.

So, $u -v = \frac{6032}{8} = 754$ ........ (1) {Where u is the speed of plane in still air and v is the wind speed}
