The worst result of the hurricane was the inundation of water that flooded streets and basements.
Step-by-step explanation:
x has to equal 1. 3/10 + 1/5 = 1/2
the equation is now 1/2 + x = 1 1/2x
x = 1
1 1/2 = 1 1/2
The vertex where the two triangles touch forms a pair of vertical angles, so that the angles on opposites sides of the vertex are congruent. You're shown that two legs of both triangles are congruent. All this tells you that the two triangles are isosceles, and furthermore that they are similar because of the congruence of their "base" angles.
This means
25x² + 1 = 5
25x² + 1 - 5 = 0
25x² - 4 = 0 By difference of two squares
(5x)² - (2)² = 0
(5x - 2)(5x + 2) = 0
5x - 2 = 0 or 5x + 2 = 0
5x = 0 + 2 5x = 0 - 2
5x = 2 5x = -2
x = 2/5 x = -2/5
x = 0.4 x = -0.4
x = + 0.4 or -0.4
