Can someone solve for x lol

Mathematics
1 answer:

3 0

Answer:

  x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the figure is a rhombus, the diagonal divides the figure into two isosceles triangles. That means the marked angles are congruent:

  7x² -8 = 6x² -2x

  x² +2x -8 = 0 . . . . . . . subtract 6x²-2x

  (x +4)(x -2) = 0 . . . . . factor

  x = -4  or  x = 2 . . . . . values of x that make the factors zero

The only value of x that makes sense in this problem is ...

  x = 2

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

We know the base angles of an isosceles triangle must be less than 90°. As the attached graph shows, the angle measures for x=-4 would both be 104°, an impossible situation for this geometry.

What is the area of the actual living room in square feet? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. The numbers are 3 in.
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
First convert to feet
3in=3/12=1/4ft
5.5in=5.5/12ft


1:30
multiply scale by 30
1/4ft times 30=30/4=15/2=7.5ft
5.5/12ft times 30=165/12=13.75ft
multiply them
7.5ft times 13.75ft=103.125 ft^2
closest is option D

Given: ABCD trapezoid, BK ⊥ AD , AB=DC AB=8, AK=4 Find: m∠A, m∠B
Elis [28]

Answer:

m\angle B=m\angle C=120^{\circ}

m\angle A=m\angle D=60^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

Trapezoid ABCD is isosceles trapezoid, because AB = CD (given). In isosceles trapezoid, angles adjacent to the bases are congruent, then

  • \angle A\cong \angle D;
  • \angle B\cong \angle C.

Since BK ⊥ AD, the triangle ABK is right triangle. In this triangle,  AB = 8, AK = 4. Note that the hypotenuse AB is twice the leg AK:

AB=2AK.

If in the right triangle the hypotenuse is twice the leg, then the angle opposite to this leg is 30°, so,

m\angle ABK=30^{\circ}

Since BK ⊥ AD, then BK ⊥ BC and

m\angle KBC=90^{\circ}

Thus,

m\angle B=30^{\circ}+90^{\circ}=120^{\circ}\\ \\m\angle B=m\angle C=120^{\circ}

Now,

m\angle A=m\angle D=180^{\circ}-120^{\circ}=60^{\circ}

A PHN is studying the rate of H1N1 in the community. If there are five cases of H1N1 in the community of 1,000 people, what is t
BigorU [14]

Answer:

0.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The prevalence rate shows the proportion of people that have a disease in a population and to be able to calculate it, you have to divide the number of people that have a disease by the population:

Prevalence rate=(5/1,000)*100

Prevalence rate=0.005*100

Prevalence rate=0.5%

According to this, the answer is that if there are five cases of H1N1 in the community of 1,000 people, the prevalence rate is 0.5%.
