Why does the equation 35-5x+6x-36=-24-17x+17x+24 have one solution

Combining like terms first

x-1=0

x=1

It has only one solution because only one value of x satisfies the equation.

If it has only one solution that means that there is only one value of x that will fulfill this equation
35 - 5x + 6x - 36 = -24 - 17x + 17x + 24
-5x + 6x - 36 = -24 -17x + 17x + 24 - 35
x - 36 = -24 + 24 - 35 (I just canceled out the 17x because it would have justy made the process longer if I moved them over)
x = -24 + 24 - 35 + 36
x = -35 + 36
x = 1

an isosceles triangle has congruent sides of 20cm. the base is 10cm. find the height of the triangle.

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{A_\triangle=25\sqrt{15}\ cm^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the picture.

The formula of an area of a triangle:

$A_\triangle=\dfrac{bh}{2}$

<em>b</em><em> - base</em>

<em>h</em><em> - height</em>

<em />

We need a length of a height.

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

$leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2$

We have:

$leg=5,\ leg=h,\ hypotenuse=20$

Substitute:

$5^2+h^2=20^2$

$25+h^2=400$ <em>subtract 25 from both sides</em>

$h^2=375\to h=\sqrt{375}\\\\h=\sqrt{(25)(15)}\\\\h=\sqrt{25}\cdot\sqrt{15}\\\\h=5\sqrt{15}\ cm$

Calculate the area:

$A_\triangle=\dfrac{(10)(5\sqrt{15})}{2}=\dfrac{50\sqrt{15}}{2}=25\sqrt{15}\ cm^2$

If 3, x, y, -9 are in A.P, find the values of x and y.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

x = -1
y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference (d) can be found using the first and 4th terms:

a1 = 3

a4 = a1 +d(4 -1)

-9 = 3 +3d . . . . . simplify

-3 = 1 + d . . . . . . divide by 3

-4 = d . . . . . . . . . subtract 1

Then ...

x = a1 + d = 3 -4 = -1

y = x + d = -1 -4 = -5

The values of x and y are -1 and -5, respectively.
