Solve the following:
a) 2(5x – 3) = 24
b) 5(2x + 1) = 50​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 3 and x = [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

2(5x - 3) = 24 ( divide both sides by 2 )

5x - 3 = 12 ( add 3 to both sides )

5x = 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 3

(b)

5(2x + 1) = 50 ( divide both sides by 5 )

2x + 1 = 10 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

2x = 9 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

What is 3.116372 rounded to the nearest hundred thousandths place?

Answers

Answer: 3.11637

Explanation: The hundred thousandths place is in the fifth place after the decimal. To avoid remembering this, you can simply note that the first place after the decimal is the tenths. You simply keep progressing as you would in whole numbers.

For example 10 becomes 100 when a zero is added. This zero is always added right beside the first zero and indicates the hundreds place.

Furthermore, the general rule for rounding is if the number after the preferred rounding place is 4 or less, the number remains the same. 5 or more means it goes up by one digit.

ΔABC is similar to ΔFED. Answer the questions to find the length of DF .


1. Which side in ΔFED does AB in ΔABC correspond to?
Write your answer in the space below.


2. Which side in ΔFED does CB in ΔABC correspond to?

Answers

Answer:

1.AB are the first 2 letters in ΔABC. Similarly, FE are the first 2 letters in ΔFED.

Hence side AB corresponds to side FE.

2.CB are the last 2 letters in ΔABC. Similarly, DE are the last 2 letters in ΔFED.

3.AC corresponds to FD

4.The scale factor is 2 because you would take the sides in ABC and multiply by 2 to get the sides in FED

5.6 because it corresponds to CB  and you would multiply the side of CB (3) by 2 and you would get 6

6.A^2+B^2=C^2   =    FE^2+ED^2=FD^2    =    8^2+6^2=100^2   = square root of 100=   10

The side length of FD is 10

Work out angle BXC.
Give a reason for each angle you work out.

Answers

Answer:

∠ BXC = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ XBC and ∠ AXY are corresponding angles and are congruent, then

∠ XBC = 55°

Since XB = XC , then Δ XBC is isosceles and the 2 base angles are congruent.

∠ BXC = 180° - (55 + 55)° ← angle sum of triangle

∠ BXC = 180° - 110° = 70°

The measure of angle BXC is 70°

What s transversal?

"It is a line that passes through two lines in the same plane at two different points."

What are parallel lines?

"These are the lines in the same plane that are at equal distance from each other and never meet."

What are isosceles triangle?

"It is a triangle having any two sides equal in length."

For given example,

We can observe that XY and BD are parallel lines and AB is the transversal.

Here,

∠AXY = ∠XBC                                  ..............(Corresponding angles)

⇒ ∠XBC = 55°

In figure, for ΔXBC the sides XB and XC are equal.

So, ΔXBC is an isosceles triangle.

We know, for isosceles triangle, angles opposite to equal sides are equal in measure.

⇒ ∠XBC = ∠XCB

⇒ ∠XCB = 55°

We know, the sum of all angles of the triangle is 180°.

⇒ ∠XBC + ∠XCB + ∠BXC = 180°

⇒ 55° + 55° + ∠BXC = 180°

⇒ 110° + ∠BXC = 180°

⇒ ∠BXC = 70°

Therefore, the measure of angle BXC is 70°

The sum of the perimeters of 2 different squares is 68 feet, and the difference between their perimeters is 12 feet. What is the side length of

each square?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

10 ft7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The side lengths are 1/4 of the perimeter, so we can say ...

  the sum of side lengths is 68 ft/4 = 17 ft

  the difference of side lengths is 12 ft/4 = 3 ft

Using x to represent the side length of the smaller square, we have ...

  x + (x +3) = 17 . . . . . . the larger square has side length x+3

  2x = 14 . . . . . . . . . subtract 3

  x = 7 . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The side lengths of the squares are 7 feet and 10 feet.

A person invests 3000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 4.25% interest compounded semi-annually. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long must the person leave the money in the bank until it reaches 5600 dollars?

Answers

Answer:

The person must leave the money for approximately 14.8 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be calculated using the formula for calculating the future value as follows:

FV = PV * (1 + r)^n …………………………………. (1)

Where;

FV = Future value of the investment = 5600

PV = Present value of the investment = 3000

r = semiannual interest rate = 4.25% / 2 = 0.0425 / 2 = 0.02125

n = number of semiannuals = ?

Substitute the values into equation (1) and solve for n, we have:

5600 = 3000 * (1 + 0.02125)^n

5600 / 3000 = 1.02125^n

1.02125^n = 1.86666666666667

Loglinearizing both sides, we have:

nlog1.02125 = log1.86666666666667

n = log1.86666666666667 / log1.02125

n = 0.271066772286539 / 0.0091320695404719

n = 29.6829509548973

Since n is number of semiannuals, we divide the answer by 2 obtain the number of years as follows:

Number of years = 29.6829509548973 / 2 = 14.8414754774487

Rounding to the nearest tenth of year, we have:

Number of years = 14.8

Therefore, the person must leave the money for approximately 14.8 years.

The midpoint of the line AB.

Midpoint formula:

[tex]Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)[/tex]

A line AB joins the points A (3,4) and B (5,8). So, the midpoint of line AB is

[tex]Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{3+5}{2},\dfrac{4+8}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]Midpoint=\left(\dfrac{8}{2},\dfrac{12}{2}\right)[/tex]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the problem shows us that all the angles of the triangle are equal, we can confirm this is an equilateral triangle. Equilateral triangles have the same angles and the same side lengths. Knowing this, we can set up an equation to solve for x.

6x - 5 = 5x (Given)

-5 = -x (Subtract 6x on both sides)

5 = x (Divide -1 on both sides)

Therefore, x = 5.

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since all the three angles of the triangle GJH are marked by identical signs, thus they are congruent.

Therefore, triangle GJH is an equilateral triangle.

Measures of all sides of an equilateral triangle are equal.

So,

6x - 5 = 5x

6x - 5x = 5

x = 5
