1 answer:

7 0

Answer: 3

Explanation:

She wants to get 70%, so we need to solve

x/20 = 70/100

Doing so gets us

100x = 20*70

100x = 1400

x = 1400/100

x = 14

She needs to have 14 questions correct, out of 20, to get a score of 70%

14/20 = 0.70 = 70%

She needs to get 14-11 = 3 more correct questions.

Find the value of x on this triangle

blondinia [14]

Look at the picture.

ΔABD and ΔBCD are similar, therefore:

$\dfrac{y}{5}=\dfrac{11}{y}\ \ \ |\cross\ multiply\\\\y^2=55\to y=\sqrt{55}$

Use Pythagorean theorem:

$x^2=5^2+(\sqrt{55})^2\\\\x^2=25+55\\\\x^2=80\to x=\sqrt{80}\\\\x=\sqrt{16\cdot5}\\\\x=\sqrt{16}\cdot\sqrt5\\\\\boxed{x=4\sqrt5}$

I do not understand the process/steps to do this.

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

An angle bisector sets up a triangle ratio that looks like the following proportion.

3x - 3 5x

====== = ====== Cross multiply

24 44

44*(3x-3) = 24*5x Remove the brackets on the left

132x - 132 = 24*5x Combine the right side

132x - 132 = 120x Add 132 to both sides

132x = 120x + 132 Subtract 120x from both sides

132x- 120x = 132 Combine

12x = 132 Divide by 12

x = 11
