Answer:
(x, y) = (5, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>:
LP = x
MP = 2y+3
NP = y+3
KP = 3x -8
KP = MP, LP = NP
<u>Find</u>:
x, y
<u>Solution</u>:
The given relations between the segment lengths let us write two equations:
KP = MP
3x -8 = 2y +3 ⇒ 3x -2y -11 = 0 [eq1]
LP = NP
x = y +3 ⇒ x -y -3 = 0 [eq2]
__
Subtracting 3 times [eq2] from [eq1] gives ...
(3x -2y -11) -3(x -y -3) = 0
y -2 = 0 . . . . . . . . simplify
y = 2 . . . . . . . . . . add 2
Substituting this value into [eq2] gives ...
x = 2 + 3 = 5
The values of x and y are ...
x = 5, y = 2
You are given the equation 36 = 9x² + 4y². You are asked to find the slopes of the asymptotes of the hyperbola. A hyperbola has the following general equation x²/a² + y²/b² = 1. the goal here is to find the slopes of the hyperbolic equation. So divide both sides by 36
36 = 9x² + 4y²
(1/36)[36 = 9x² + 4y²]
1 = x²/4 + y²/9
a² = 4
a = 2
and
b² = 9
b = 3
To find the slope, divide a/b and you will get 2/3.
Answer:
option b is the answer of your question
Answer:
46
Step-by-step explanation:
Segment WX = 23 by the 30 60 90 triangle theorem which states that the longer leg is sqrt3 times the length of the shorter leg.
Segment XY = 26 by the 30 60 90 triangle theorem that states the hypotenuse is twice the length of the shorter leg
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of sums (not distinct) is 
, because we're removing without replacement.
Count the sums that fit the stipulation (sum 
5):
There are 8 sums that work. Therefore, the desired answer is
