The longest diagonal

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ratling [72]3 years ago
8 0
The diagonals are:
diagonal₁=2x+3y
diagonal₂=(x+8)+(2y+5)
We have to solve the following system of equations:
2x=3y
(x+8)=(2y+5)
We solve this system by substitution method:
2x=3y  ⇒x=3y/2

(3y/2 +8)=2y+5
3y+16=4y+10
-y=-6
y=6

x=3y/2=3*6/2=9

we obtain the measure of the diagonals:
diagonal₁=2x+3y=2*9+3*6=18+18=36
diagonal₂=(x+8)+(2y+5)=(9+8)+(2*6+5)=17+17=34

Answer: The longest diagonal is 36 units.

vitfil [10]
Siny/2.7=sin63/2.8

siny=2.7sin63/2.8

y=arcsin((2.7sin63)/2.8)

y≈59.23°  (to nearest one-hundredth of a degree)

25 POINTS!! (EASY)MORE POINTS!!!!!!! BRAINLIEST PLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHELP. For Brainliest Please help)
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

A) 50

B) 20

C) 20

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the first question, we can multiply both sides by 10.

Thus, we get:

6x = 300.

Then, divide by 6, to get x:

x = 50.

You can do the same thing to all of these questions.

I've already checked the answers, but if you don't trust them, just pluck the values in.

For example, let's check the answer for question A.

0.6*50 is supposed to equal 30.

Does it equal? Yes, so we know that the answer is correct.

Does 3 (x-1) = 2x + 9 have one solution, no solution, or infinite solutions?
Allushta [10]

Answer:

one solution

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

3 (x-1) = 2x + 9

3x - 3 = 2x + 9

subtract 2x from each side of the equation:

x - 3 = 9

add 3 to each side:

x = 12

Two students, Jennifer and Jamal, factored the trinomial 6x2 − 3x − 9. Jamal factored it as 3(2x − 3)(x + 1) and Jennifer factor
GaryK [48]
Jamal factored it completely.

in Jennifer's answer, 3x+3 has a common factor of 3 which can be factored to become 3(x+1) which is what Jamal did.
