(3x+8)(3x+8) is the answer :))
Answer:
13√2
Step-by-step explanation:
The areas of the larger triangle, and the smaller triangle (formed when the larger triangle was cut by the parallel line) are similar. Therefore we can compare their areas:
Area1/Area2 = (Length1)^2/(Length2)^2,
x/2x = (Length1)^2/(26)^2,
1/2 = (Length1)^2/676,
(Length1)^2 = 676/2 = 338
Length1 = √1352 = 13√2
Answer:
m = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
4m + 2(8) = 5(8) (Given)
4m + 16 = 40 (Simplify)
4m + 16 - 16 = 40 - 16 (Subtraction Property of Equality)
4m = 24 (Simplify)
(Division Property of Equality)
m = 6 (Simplify)
So first, you have to get two of the same variables to cancel out. Let's do this for x. In order for the x's to cancel out, we could multiply the bottom problem by 2.
(2) 3x-6y=24
After multiplying all the numbers by 2, you get the equation 6x-12y=48
The set of equations is now
-6x+2y=12
6x-12y=48
Now you can add them. The x variables cancel out, so you are left with the y variable.
2y+-12y=-10y and 12+48=60
Then you would divide 60 by -10 to get y=-6.
You would plug the answer for y into one of the original equations, lets do the top one. -6x+2y=12 becomes -6x+2(-6)=12
You'd multiply the 2 and -6 to get -12 so the equation is
-6x-12=12
The negative 12 turn positive and you add to both sides to get the -6x alone.
-6x-12=12
+12=12
-6x=24
Then divide 24 by -6
X=4
(-4,-6) is your final answer.
