Solve for x* (17x - 8)

Mathematics
1 answer:
djyliett [7]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

This triangle is an equilateral triangle with all angles equal.

Sum of angles in a triangle=180

17x-8+17x-8+17x-8=180

Collect like terms

17x+17x+17x-8-8-8=180

51x-24=180

51x=180+24

51x=204

Divide both sides by 51

51x/51=204/51

x=4

0.2x + 0.3y = 1.3.<br>0.4r + 0.5y = 2.3. solve by using substitution ​
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

x=2, y=3.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.2x + 0.3y = 1.3

0.4x + 0.5y = 2.3

From the first equation   y = (1.3 - 0.2x) / 0.3

Substituting in second equation:

0.4x + 0.5(1.3 - 0.2x) / 0.3 = 2.3

Multiply through by 0.3:

0.12x + 0.5(1.3 - 0.2x) =  0.69

0.12x + 0.65 - 0.1x = 0.69

0.02x = 0.04

x = 2.

Substituting for x in equation 1:

0.2* 2 + 0.3y = 1.3

0.4 + 0.3y = 1.3

0.3y = 1.3 - 0.4 = 0.9

y = 3.

Check in equation 2:

0.4 * 2 + 0.5(3) =   0.8 + 1.5 = 2.3.

- Correct.

Suppose you know the minimum, lower quartile, median, upper quartile, and maximum values for a set of data. Explain how to creat
Irina18 [472]
First, create a scale that includes all the numbers- that being, you can plot both the minimum and maximum values on it.

Next, draw a line of a set height (I tend to use 2 squares in my work) where the median is. Next, draw similar lines, at the same height, for the rest of the values- both quartiles and the maximum values. You can obviously do this in whatever order you like, but that's how I do it.

Next, join up the tops and bottoms of the quartiles, with the median in the middle, and connect the middles of the quartiles to their corresponding minimum or maximum values.

Voila, my friend. You have a box plot.

Rob is making a scale model of the Solar System on the school field. He wants the distance from the Sun to Jupiter to be 8 metre
ANEK [815]

Answer:

1 : 9.75 * 10⁷

Step-by-step explanation:

To find n, we have to divide the real distance by the scale distance. This is 7.8 * 10⁸ / 8 = 0.975 * 10⁸ = 9.75 * 10⁷ which means that the ratio is 1 : 9.75 * 10⁷.

Solve for x 3x−91&gt;−87 OR 21x−17&gt;25
klasskru [66]

Answer:

  x > 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The first inequality can be solved this way ...

  3x -91 > -87

  3x > 4 . . . . . . . add 91

  x > 4/3 . . . . . . divide by 3

__

The second inequality has solution ...

  21x -17 > 25

  21x > 42 . . . . . . add 17

  x > 2 . . . . . . . . . divide by 21

__

The solution set is the union of these overlapping solutions, so will be equal to the first solution:

  x > 4/3
