Step-by-step explanation:
It is parallel to the third side and has a length equal to half the length of the third side.
so
x= 34/2= 17
x= 17
Answer:
20,365.7 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to know how to convert yards to miles, as the question is in miles. We know that 1 mile is equivalent to 1760 yards. So we have:
1 mi = 1760 yards
If we multiply both sides by 81:
81 mi = 142,560 yards
And we know that the sprinter needs 8 second to run 56 yards:
8 s = 56 yards
If we divide both sides by 56 we get the time he needs for 1 yard:
8/56 s = 56/56 yards
1/7 s = 1 yard
So, takes him 1/7 seconds to run one yard. At this rate he runs 142,560 yards in:
(1/7) * 142,560 = 20,365.7
So, he needs 20,365.7 seconds to run 81 miles (142,560 yards)
Answer:
a) The system that models the situation is:
p + 0.2m = 3
p + m = 5
b) The solution of the system is:
m = 2.5
p = 2.5
Step-by-step explanat:
It is desired to obtain 5 pounds of a mixture containing 40% peanuts and 60% almonds.
It has a mixture of 20% peanuts and 80% almonds.
p: number of pounds of peanuts
m = amount of mixture
The equation that represents the amount of peanut and mixture that is needed is:
p + m = 5 pounds
m = 5-p (i)
The amount of peanut in total that the mixture should have is:
p + 0.2m = 0.6 (5)
p + 0.2m = 3 (ii)
a) The system that models the situation is:
p + 0.2m = 3
p + m = 5
Now we substitute (i) in (ii) and clear p.
p + 0.2 (5-p) = 3
p-0.2p = 2
p = 2.5 pounds
Now we find m
m = 5 - 2.5
m = 2.5 pounds
b) The solution of the system is:
m = 2.5
p = 2.5
Answer: y=2x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a line that passes through (a,b) and have slope m is given by :-
[point slope form]
Given, Point = (4,7) , m= 2
Equation in point slope form : 
To write in slope intercept form (y=mx+c) , we need to simplify it
Hence, y=2x-1
