Answer: x = 7
`Step-by-step explanation:
Because the figure shows two triangles that are similar. we can write and solve an equation of ratios:
9 cm 72 cm
----------- = -----------
3x - 20 56 cm
Cross-multiplying, we get (3x - 20)(72 cm) = (9 cm)(56 cm) = 504 cm²
Dividing both sides by 72 cm, we get:
3x - 20 = (504 cm²) / (72 cm) = 7
Then 3x - 20 = 7, and 3x = 27. Then x must be 9.

Answer:
an = 2/5 * (5) ^ (n-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The common ratio is 5
(That is the number we multiply by)
The formula is
an = a1 (r) ^ (n-1)
an = 2/5 * (5) ^ (n-1)
Answer:
25/4 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a sector of a circle is given by the formula ...
A = (1/2)r²θ
where r is the radius and θ is the central angle in radians.
For your sector, the area is ...
A = (1/2)(5 in)²(1/2) = 25/4 in²
