Answer:

The value of x is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that triangle MRN is created when an equilateral triangle is folded in half.

It means original equilateral is triangle MNO and NR is a perpendicular bisector (<em>A line which cuts a line segment into two equal parts at 90°</em>).

The side length of the triangle is

NO = NS + SM = 6 + 2 = 8

Since an equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all three sides are equal and NR is a perpendicular bisector, therefore

RM = MO/2 = 8/2 = 4

The value of x is 4.

A spherical scoop of ice cream is placed on top of a hollow ice cream cone. the scoop and cone have the same radius. the ice cre
noname [10]
The figure shown below illustrates the problem.

The volume of the empty cone is
V₁ = (1/3) π r²h

The volume of the sphere is
V₂ = (4/3) π r³

Because the melted ice cream completely fills the cone, therefore
V₁ = V₂
(1/3) π r² h = (4/3) π r³
Divide each side by (1/3) π r².
h = 4r

Answer:
The height of the cone is 4 times greater than the radius f the cone.

Given: -3(2x + 7) = -29 – 4x; Prove: x = 4
sergey [27]

Answer:

See steps below

Step-by-step explanation:

-3(2x+7)=-29-4x

Use the distributive property

-6x-21=-29-4x

Add 21 to each side

-6x=-8-4x

Add 4x to both sides

-2x=-8

Divide by -2

x=4

Use what you know about translations of functions to analyze the graph of the function f(x) = (0.5)x−5 + 8. You may wish to grap
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The Translation is 5 units to the right and 8 units up

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about some transformation

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right  

 by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x - h)

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left  

 by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x + h)

- If the function f(x) translated vertically up  

 by k units, then the new function g(x) = f(x) + k

- If the function f(x) translated vertically down  

 by k units, then the new function g(x) = f(x) – k

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ The parent function is y = (0.5)^x

∵ f(x) = (0.5)^x - 5 + 8 after translation

- The x in the first function is (x - 5) in the second function

∴ There is a horizontal translation to the right 5 units

- the first function is (0.5)^x in the second function y = (0.5)^x - 5 + 8

∴ There is a vertical translation up 8 units

* The Translation is 5 units to the right and 8 units up

- Look to the attached graph to more understand

- The purple graph is y = (0.5)^x

- The black graph is f(x) = (0.5)^x-5 + 8

- To check the answer take a point from the y = (0.5)^x as (0 , 1), the

 image of this point on f(x) is (5 , 9)

-The point (0 , 1) is shifted 5 units to the right and 8 units up

∴ Its x- coordinate move from 0 to 5, y- coordinate move from 1 to 9
