Answer:
SAS
Step-by-step explanation:
It doesnt show the hypotenuse so its no HL
It doesnt show 2 angles so its not SAA or ASA
It doesnt show three sides so its not SSS
The little line indicates that the sides are congruent. They both have a right angle and the bottom lines are right on top of each other so its SAS
Answer:
170
Step-by-step explanation:
Equations derived from given info.
Use some substitution now.
- P=2(E+40)
- J=E+40
- P+J+E=300
Substitute first and second equation into third.
- 2(E+40)+E+40+E=300
- 2E+80+E+40+E=300
- 4E+120=300
- 4E=180
- E=45
Emily has 45 stickers. But we want to know what Peter has.
Use P=2(E+40)
Peter has 170 stickers.
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
11
Discussion:
Let "n" be the smaller number. Then
n * (n+5) = 176.
My first reaction to this problem was to factor 176 in my head. That's 176 = 16 * 11 and 16 is 5 more than 11. So that's the solution!.... Now let's solve it using the brute force approach:
n(n+5) = 176 =>
n^2 + 5n - 176 = 0 => use the quadratic formula
n = ( -5 +\- sqrt( 5^2 - 4(1)(-176)) ) /2
= ( -5 +\- sqrt( 25 + 704) )/ 2
= ( -5 +\- sqrt (729) ) /2 => as sqrt(729) = 27
= (-5 +\- 27) / 2 =>
= (-5 + 27)/2 or ( -5 -27)/2 =>
= 22/2 or -32/2 =>
= 11 or -16
But -16 is not allowed as the question wants a positive value.
Thank you,
MrB
