FIND THE MISSING LENGTH.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Reika [66]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

  x = 9

  x+7 = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles in this geometry are similar, so the ratios of corresponding sides are proportional.

  long side/short side = (x+7)/12 = 12/x

  x(x +7) = 12²

  x +7x -144 = 0 . . . . . subtract 144 to put in standard form

  (x +16)(x -9) = 0 . . . . factor

  x = 9 . . . . . . only the positive solution is useful here

The missing lengths are ...

  • x = DC = 9
  • x+7 = DA = 16

How many solutions does the system have? y=−2x−4 y=3x+3 ​
Molodets [167]

Answer:

One Solution

Step-by-step explanation:

First substitute the y in the first equation with the second equation to get

-2x-4=3x+3

since theres a variable of both sides, you subtract the variable with the least coefficient, in this case, you add 2x to both sides to get

-4=5x+3

subtract the constant on both sides to get

-1=5x

divide both sides by 5

x= -0.2 or -1/5

How do I solve this do we use the multiple choice
belka [17]

Answer:

  (C)  4|5 -2x| > 68

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve each of the inequalities to see if their solutions match the given numbers, or you can start with the given numbers and see what sort of inequality you end up with.

If you plot the given "solution" on a number line, you find that the numbers -6 and 11 are the same distance from x=2.5. That distance is 8.5 units. (One way to deterimine this is to average -6 and 11, then subtract that average from 11 to find the distance.

So, we can write an inequality describing values of x that are more than 8.5 units from 2.5:

  |x -2.5| > 8.5

and it will have the solution x < -6 or x > 11.

Multiplying this by 2, it can become ...

   |2x -5| > 17

Of course, since the absolute value function doesn't care whether its argument is positive or negative, we can also write this as ...

   |5 -2x| > 17

This tells you right away which answer choice is appropriate. Further confirmation can be had by multiplying this by 4:

  4|5 -2x| > 68 . . . . . . matches selection C

52<br> base six <br><br> Write the normal number
saveliy_v [14]

19770609664 is simple power of 52⁶ .

What is exponent and power?

  • A base number raised to an exponent is referred to as a power in mathematics, where base number is the factor that is multiplied by itself and exponent is the number of times the same base number is multiplied.
  • Exponents and powers are two techniques for simplification of extremely big or extremely small numbers.
  • As an illustration, we can write 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 as 34, where 4 is the exponent and 3 is the base, if we need to represent it simply.
  • It is claimed that the entire statement 34 has power.

= 52⁶

= 52 × 52 × 52 × 52  × 52 × 52

=  19770609664
