These two triangles are congruent by the hypotenuse leg theorem

Mathematics
1 answer:
inysia [295]3 years ago
7 0

since we already know the triangles are congruent by HL, that simply means that

x - y = x + 2

and

2x - y = 4x + 2y

therefore

\bf \stackrel{Legs}{x-y=x+2}\implies -y=2\implies \boxed{y=-2}\\\\ -------------------------------\\\\ \stackrel{Hypotenuses}{2x-y=4x+2y}\implies 2x-(\stackrel{y}{-2})=4x+2(\stackrel{y}{-2})\implies 2x+2=4x-4 \\\\\\ 6=2x\implies \cfrac{6}{2}=x\implies \boxed{3=x}

A restaurant offers a​ $12 dinner special that has 77 choices for an​ appetizer, 1010 choices for an​ entrée, and 44 choices for
krok68 [10]
<span>280 I'm assuming that this question is badly formatted and that the actual number of appetizers is 7, the number of entres is 10, and that there's 4 choices of desserts. So let's take each course by itself. You can choose 1 of 7 appetizers. So we have n = 7 After that, you chose an entre, so the number of possible meals to this point is n = 7 * 10 = 70 Finally, you finish off with a dessert, so the number of meals is: n = 70 * 4 = 280 Therefore the number of possible meals you can have is 280. Note: If the values of 77, 1010 and 44 aren't errors, but are actually correct, then the number of meals is n = 77 * 1010 * 44 = 3421880 But I believe that it's highly unlikely that the numbers in this problem are correct. Just imagine the amount of time it would take for someone to read a menu with over a thousand entres in it. And working in that kitchen would be an absolute nightmare.</span>
