Determine The Value For X In The Picture Below.Please Help Me

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The figure of a right angle triangle.

A line segment intersect the two sides and parallel to third side of the triangle

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

According to basic proportionality theorem, if a line segment intersect the two sides and parallel to third side of the triangle, then it divides the two sides proportionally.

Using basic proportionality theorem, we get

[tex]\dfrac{8}{20-8}=\dfrac{6}{x}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{8}{12}=\dfrac{6}{x}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{6}{x}[/tex]

On cross multiplication, we get

[tex]2\times x=6\times 3[/tex]

[tex]2x=18[/tex]

[tex]x=\dfrac{18}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=9[/tex]

Therefore, the value of x is 9.

Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in a circle. If angle B measures 112°, what is the measure of angle D?

Answers

Answer:

68°

Step-by-step explanation:

If a quadrilateral is inscribed in a cirle, the sum of its opposite angles is 180°. Angles B and D are opposite => B+D=180° => D=180°-B=180°-112°=68°

Answer:

68°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since angles B and D are opposite each other, they are supplementary.

Answers

Answer:

n = 116.2 ≈ 117  

Option E) 117 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Exceed = 0.1

{ 1 - 0.1 = 0.9 }

normal table value at 0.9 = - 1.285

Normal table;

hence

( y - 400 ) / 40 = -1.285

y - 400  = -51.4

y = 400 - 51.4

y = 348.6

so,

348.6 = ∈(y) = ∈[ ⁿ∑[tex]_{i=1[/tex] X[tex]_i[/tex] ]

348.6 = n.∈( X[tex]_i[/tex]  )

we substitute

348.6 = n × 3

n = 348.6 / 3

n = 116.2 ≈ 117  { roundup since we talking of number of cars i.e sample size }

Option E) 117 is the correct answer.

How do I find RS? I've been having great trouble with questions like this recently.

Answers

RS = 5

To find the value of RS, you first have to solve for the variable x.

To do this you solve the equation of 2x - 6 + 1 + x - 4 = 18. You get this equation by adding all the values of the line PS together, equaling them to 18, because these lines have the same value.

Solving this equation gives you x = 9.

You then substitute 9 into x - 4.

9 - 4 = 5.

This gives you RS = 5

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve by solving for x

2x-6 + 1 + x-4 = 18

3x-9=18

3x=27

x=9

Plug in 9 for x in Segment RS and you get (9) - 4 = 5

Hope this Helps!

Question and choices are in the photo please explain the answer

Answers

Answer: The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+5)(2x-1)=3(x+5)

Multiply the parentheses

2x^2 - x + 10x - 5 = 3x + 15

Collect like terms

2x^2 + 9x - 5 = 3x + 15

Move the expression to the left hand side and change its sign, then equate it to 0

2x^2 + 9x - 5 - 3x -15 = 0

Collect like terms

2x^2 + 6x - 20 = 0

Divide each term of the equation by 2

x^2 + 3x - 10 = 0

Rewrite the expression in factorized form

x^2 + 5x - 2x - 10 = 0

Factor the expression

x(x + 5) - 2(x + 5) = 0

(x + 5) (x - 2) = 0

Separate into possible cases but when the product of factors equals 0, at least one factor is 0.

x + 5 = 0———equation (1)

x - 2 = 0———-equation (2)

Solve the equations

x + 5 = 0———equation (1)

Make x the subject

x = 0 - 5

x = -5

x - 2 = 0———equation (2)

Make x the subject

x = 0 + 2

x = 2

Hence, the possible values of x are -5 and 2.

Solve the equation
3/4x+3-2x= -1/4+1/2x+5

Answer:

  13311₅

Step-by-step explanation:

Each column gets the sum mod 5, with a carry to the next column of the quotient of the sum and 5. For example, in the units column, 2+4 = 11₅, so 1 is written in the units column as the sum, and 1 is carried to the 5s column (next one to the left).

Continuing in this fashion gives the sum 13311₅.

__

If you recognize that 3444₅ = 4000₅ -1, you can subtract 1 from 4312₅ and add 4 in the 5³ place (4th column from the right). That gives you ...

  4311₅ +4000₅ = 13311₅

Answer:

Pythagoras Theorem: It is a basic relation in Euclidean geometry among the sides of a right-angled triangle. Pythagoras Theorem is commonly used to find the length of an unknown side in a right-angled triangle. It describes the interrelationship between the base, perpendicular and hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle. The converse of Pythagoras Theorem is used to check whether a triangle is a right-angled triangle or not

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement of Pythagoras Theorem

The Pythagoras Theorem states that in a right-angled triangle the sum of square of the base and square of the perpendicular is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

Pythagorean theorem

In the right angled triangle there is a relationship that governs the length of the three sides. if we knows the length of any two sides, the third side may be calculated by the use of the Pythagorean theorem. this theorem States the square on the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle is equal to the sum of the squares on the remaining two sides.
