CRITICAL THINKING The total area of the polygon is 176 square feet. What is the value of $x$ ?

Mathematics

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

this figure involves two triangle and one rectangle

for area of rectangle= Length * Width = 16 * 8 = 128 feet^2

for area of one triangle = 1/2 * base * height = 1/2 * x *8 = 4x

for two triangles = 8x ft^2 total

whole area = two triangles + one rectangle

176 = 8x + 128

8x =48

x = 6

I know you didn't want an explanation, but I'll give you one anyway.
So, for a function, when you have f(5) = , then you'll put that 5 in for all of the x's in the function. 

The first batch of problems gave you the equation f(x) = \frac{x}{2} + 3. Now, plug in the numbers given for s and solve.

1. f(5) = <span>\frac{x}{2} + 3   Plug in 5 for x
</span>         = \frac{5}{2} + 3   Make three into a fraction over 2
         = \frac{5}{2} + <span>\frac{6}{2}   Add
         = </span><span><span>\frac{11}{2}

</span>2. f(-4) = </span><span>\frac{x}{2} + 3   Plug in -4 for x
           = </span><span>\frac{-4}{2} + 3   Divide -4 by 2
           = -2 + 3   Add
           = 1

For the next set, you have g(x) = x</span>² + 1.

3. Let's split this up. Solve the first equation, then the second, and then put         the answers together to solve it.

g(4) = x² + 1   Plug in 4 for x
       = 4² + 1   Square
       = 16 + 1   Add
       = 17

g(3) = x² + 1   Plug in 3 for x
       = 3² + 1   Square
       = 9 + 1   Add
       = 10

Now, put the two together.

g(4) + g(3) =    Substitute in the answers you just got.
      17 + 10 =    Add
                  = 27         

4. g(-1) = x² + 1      Substitute in -1 for x
            = (-1)² + 1   Square
            = 1 + 1        Add
            = 2

5. g(-6) = x² + 1       Plug in -6 for x
             = (-6)² + 1   Square
             = 36 + 1      Add
             = 37

For the last set, we have h(x) = x² + 7 and k(x) = 4x - 5. We'll have to pay close attention to the starting variables here.

6. h(-6) = x² + 7       Plug in -6 for x
             = (-6)² + 7   Square
             = 36 + 7      Add
             = 43

k(4) = 4x - 5     Plug in 4 for x
       = 4(4) - 5   Multiply
       = 16 - 5      Subtract
       = 11

Put the two answers into the final equation.

h(-6) + k(4) =    Substitute in the answers you got
       43 + 11 =    Add
                   = 54

7. k(10) = 4x - 5       Plug in 10 for x
            = 4(10) - 5   Multiply
            = 40 - 5      Subtract
            = 35

h(2) = x² + 7   Plug in 2 for x
       = 2² + 7   Square
       = 4 + 7     Add
       = 11

Now, put those into the equation.

k(10) - h(2) =    Plug in the answers you got
       35 - 11 =    Subtract
                  = 24

8. For this one, it wants you to add h(x) and k(x). We don't need to plug anything into the equations this time because they're both already solved for x! So, you can just set this up like a standard find-x equation.

(x² + 7) + (4x - 5) =
    x² + 7 + 4x - 5 =   Combine like terms (7 and -5)
         x² + 2 + 4x =    Reorder so the variables come first
                            = x² + 4x + 2

Please answer this correctly which is the correct options
MakcuM [25]

The first two are equivalent to 15 = k + 13

8 = k + 13 - 7 → ( add 7 to both sides )

8 + 7 = k + 13 ⇒ 15 = k + 13 ' is equivalent '

12 = k + 13 - 3 → ( add 3 to both sides )

12 + 3 = k + 13 ' is equivalent '

Larry is building a frame around a rectangular picture. He will need 42 inches of wood to do the entire frame. If the frame is 1
Anton [14]

The width would be 9 inches. Here's how I got the answer:

Double 12

Subtract from total

Take your difference and divide by two.

That will give you the width.
