Answer:
The length of the other leg is
Step-by-step explanation:
I will assume that the triangle is a right triangle
In a right triangle the legs are perpendicular
so
The area of a right triangle is equal to
where
a and b are the legs of the triangle
In this problem we have
substitute the values
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(x, y) = (5, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the second equation to substitute for y in the first.
x = 17 -4(x -2)
5x = 25 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses, add 4x
x = 5
y = 5 -2 = 3
The solution is (x, y) = (5, 3).
Answer:
The last one: 70/100 = x/80
And 56 free throws.
Explanation:
70% is 70 out of 100. And if the player is free throwing a total of 80 times, then 80 is 100% of the free throws. Both of the values that represent 100% are the denominators in the fractions.
The equations are equal, and whatever you do to the bottom, you have to do to the top. 100 was multiplied by 4/5 to get 80. So 70 is multiplied by 4/5 to get x.
4/5 * 70 is 56
