3x+22.5 = 69.75
    -22.5    -22.5

3x = 47.25
 /3       /3

x = 15.75

The price of each shirt before tax is $15.75

to the left by 4 units, C = +4


\bf G(x)=x^2\implies G(x)=1(1x+\stackrel{C}{0})^2+\stackrel{D}{0} \\\\\\ \begin{cases} D=-5\\ C=+4 \end{cases}\implies F(x)=1(1x+\stackrel{C}{4})^2\stackrel{D}{-5}\implies F(x)=(x+4)^2-5

Given right triangle A w/a hypotenuse length of 3y + x and a leg of y-x, and right triangle B, w/ a hypotense length of y+5 and
SpyIntel [72]
Triangle A

hypotenuse: 3y + x
leg: y - x

Triangle B

hypotenuse: y + 5
leg: x + 5

Congruency => 3y + x = y + 5 and y - x = x + 5

Solve the system

3y + x = y + 5 -> 2y + x = 5
y - x = x + 5 -> y - 2x = 5

  2y + x = 5
-2y + 4x = -10

5x = -5
x = -1
y = (5 -(-1)) / 2 = 6/2 = 3

Verify:

 hypotenuses
3y + x = 9 - 1 = 8
y + 5 = 3 + 5 = 8

Legs:

y - x = 3 -(-1) = 3 + 1 = 4
x + 5 = -1 + 5 = 4.

Then both hypotenuses and both legs are congruent.

Answer: x = -1 and y = 3

(I will mark brainliest) Will 3/8 + 2/8 be closer to 1/2 or 1? How do you know?
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 + 2/8 is 5/8, 1/2 is equal to 4/8, so 5/8 is only 1/8 away from 1/2 while 5/8 is also 3/8 away from 1 or 8/8 therefore, it is closer to 1/2

I need help with this problem,
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

  JL = 78

Step-by-step explanation:

The shorter segment is a midline, so is half the length of the longer one.

  2(5x-16) = 4x +34

  5x -16 = 2x +17 . . . . . divide by 2

  3x = 33 . . . . . . . . . . add 16-2x

  x = 11 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

Then segment JL is ...

  JL = 4x +34 = 4(11) +34 = 44+34

  JL = 78
