The degree measure is about 59° and the length of the ladder is 10√34 in or about 59.3in
Answer:
15;9;-8
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 5/3x-3=2/3x+12
x=15 once you combine like terms
2. 5x+35-3x+12=7x+2
2x+47=7x+2
5x=45
x=9
3. 12x+20-3=9x-7
12x+17=9x-7
3x=-24
x=-8
The correct answer is 4 ( 6x - 1 )
Answer:
x + y = ±15
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out systems of equations
x - y = 1
xy = 56
Step 2: Rearrange 1st equation
x = y + 1
Step 3: Substitution
(y + 1)y = 56
Step 4: Distribute
y² + y = 56
Step 5: Solve for <em>y</em>
y² + y - 56 = 0
(y - 7)(y + 8) = 0
y = -8, 7
Step 6: Plug in <em>y </em>to find <em>x</em>
x - 7 = 1
x = 8
x - (-8) = 1
x + 8 = 1
x = -7
Step 7: Find answer
x + y = ?
8 + 7 = 15
-7 + -8 = -15
So both 15 and -15 could be the answer.
