Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is equilateral then sides are congruent.
Equate any 2 sides and solve for x
13x + 5 = 8x + 35 ( subtract 8x from both sides )
5x + 5 = 35 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
5x = 30 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 6
JK = (13 × 6) + 5 = 78 + 5 = 83
KL = (17 × 6) - 19 = 102 - 19 = 83
JL = (8 × 6) + 35 = 48 + 35 = 83
ΔJKL is equilateral with side = 83
The information from the first equation gives you the information needed for the second. To solve the first equation you must rearrange the equation to isolate X. In order to do that you can first move the 3 to the other side of the equation by subtracting it from both sides (5x + 3 - 3 = 4 - 3) and then simplify that to (5x = 4 - 3) and further to (5x = 1). Then to move the 5 you must divide both sides by 5 so you get (5x/5 = 1/5) which can be simplified to (x = 1/5)
From this you can use the X value and input it into the second equation
Y = -3(1/5) and then solve for Y.

A) the value of the population proportion of people who would watch the new series is 5 out of 8 viewers, and B) a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of people who would watch the new series indicates that between 61.87% and 63.13% of viewers will watch the new series.
<h3><u>Proportions</u></h3>
Given that Netflix is considering a new romcom (romantic comedy) series, and a random sample of 1,000 viewers was selected and 625 viewers indicated they would watch the new series, for A) estimate the value of the population proportion of people who would watch the new series, and B) develop a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of people who would watch the new series, the following calculations must be made:
A)
625 = 1
1000 = X
1000 / 625 = X
1.6 = X
10 out of 16, or 5 out of 8.
B)
62.5 x 0.99 = 61.875
62.5 x 1.01 = 63.125
Therefore, A) the value of the population proportion of people who would watch the new series is 5 out of 8 viewers, and B) a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of people who would watch the new series indicates that between 61.87% and 63.13% of viewers will watch the new series.

Answer:
31.5 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you need to enlarge each side with a scale factor of 1.5.
7 inches = 10.5 inches
2 inches = 3 inches
The new sides are 10.5 and 3 inches long. Now, you need to use these side lengths in the area formula of a rectangle.
A = Bh
A = 10.5(3)
A = 31.5 in.²
