Answer:
x = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we see that sides AD and DC are equal, as well as sides BE and EC, we can use this information to conclude that the value of 2x-7 is equal to double the value of DE.
2x - 7 = 4(2)
2x - 7 = 8
2x - 7 + 7 = 8 + 7
2x = 15
x = 7.5
Answer:
- (5/22)
Step-by-step explanation:
(12-2x+8)/3 = (6x + 15)/2
(20 - 2x)/3 = ( 6x + 15)/2
Now cross multiplication
40 - 4x = 18x + 45
-18x - 4x = 45- 40
- 22x = 5
x = - ( 5/22)
Answer:
\[y = (-1/2) * x + 6\]
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of the given line: y=2x+2
Hence the slope of the line is given by 2
Any line which is perpendicular to the given line will have a slope m such that m*2 = -1
Or, \[m = \frac{-1}{2}\]
Only options 2 and 3 satisfy this condition.
The line is also supposed to pass through the point (6,3).
Substituting these values in the option 2:
\[3 = (-1/2) * 6 + 3\]
Or, \[ 3 =0 \] which is false . Hence option 2 is not valid.
Now substituting (6,3) in option 3:
\[3 = (-1/2) * 6 + 6\]
Or, \[ 3 =3 \] which is true . Hence option 3 is the required equation of the line.
