Answer:
Option C. x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question we should always keep these two points in our mind.
1). In-center of a triangle is formed by the intersection of the angle bisectors of all interior angles of the triangle.
2). In-center of a triangle is equidistant from all three sides of the triangle.
From the figure attached,
In ΔSRT,
∠ASZ ≅ ∠ZSB [ SZ is an angle bisector of angle ASB]
5x - 9 = 16 [ given in the question]
5x = 16 + 9
5x = 25
x =
x = 5
Therefore, Option C. is the answer.
Answer: 4.5 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Weight of original pipe =45 pounds
Weight of first piece = 18 pounds
Then, Weight of other piece = 45- 18 = 27 pounds
Length of first piece = 3 feet
Let x be the length of other piece.
As length is directly proportional to weight.
Then,
Hence, the he length of the other piece = 4.5 pounds.
