Find x and the measures of the indicated parts

Mathematics
1 answer:
frutty [35]3 years ago
8 0
Given:

Two similar triangles AEB and ACD.

To solve for x, we can use ratio and proportion following the rule for similar triangles. 

So,

AE / AD = AB / AC

Substitute values,

AE = AD - DE
AE = 6 - 5
AE = 1

1 / 6 = 2 / (2 + x + 4)

Solve for x 

x = 6

then,

BC = x +4 = 6 + 4 = 10
AC = 2 + x + 4 = 12

Therefore, the measurements of the triangles are:

AE = 1 
BC = 10
AC = 12

Express the system as AX = B; then solve using matrix inverses
Wittaler [7]

Answer with explanation:

1. The given equations are

3x -5 y=2

-x+2 y= 0

⇒The matrix in the form of , AX=B, is

A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&-5\\-1&2\end{array}\right] ,\\\\ X=\left[\begin{array}{c}x&y\end{array}\right],\\\\B=\left[\begin{array}{c}2&0\end{array}\right]

\rightarrow X=A^{-1}B\\\\\rightarrow X=\frac{Adj.A}{|A|}\times B

Adj.A=Transpose of cofactor of Matrix A

Adj.A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&1\\5&3\end{array}\right] ,\\\\ |A|=6-5\\\\|A|=1\\\\\left[\begin{array}{c}x&y\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2&5\\1&3\end{array}\right] \times \left[\begin{array}{c}2&0\end{array}\right]\\\\x=4, y=2

2.

The given equations are

x+y-z=2

x+z=7

2 x +y+z=13

⇒The matrix in the form of , AX=B, is

   A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&-1\\1&0&1\\2&1&1\end{array}\right]\\\\ X=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]\\\\B= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\7\\13\end{array}\right]\\\\\rightarrow X=A^{-1}B\\\\\rightarrow X=\frac{Adj.A}{|A|}\times B\\\\a_{11}=-1,a_{12}=1,a_{13}=1,a_{21}=-2,a_{22}=3,a_{23}=1,a_{31}=1,a_{32}=-2,a_{33}=-1\\\\|A|=1\times(0-1)-1\times(1-2)-1\times(1-0)\\\\=-1+1-1\\\\|A|=-1\\\\Adj.A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-1&-2&1\\1&3&-2\\1&1&-1\end{array}\right]

\frac{Adj.A}{|A|}=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&-1\\-1&-3&2\\-1&-1&1\end{array}\right]\\\\X=A^{-1}B\\\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&-1\\-1&-3&2\\-1&-1&1\end{array}\right]\times\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\7\\13\end{array}\right]\\\\x=3,y=3,z=4

Debra start a babysitting business. She purchased toys, snacks, and other supplies. She charged an hourly rate for each child. T
Ghella [55]

Answer:

A. 6y

Step-by-step explanation:

The profit formula is: total earnings- total expenses. In this case the 145 has a minus sign, which indicates that these are Debra's total expenses. Then, 6y represents total revenue. You can also identify that this is the answer because revenues depend on babysitting hours, which in this case, is represented by the variable "y".

The variable used to predict changes in the values of another value is called the response variable.
Sholpan [36]
I think the statement given above is false. The variable used to predict changes in the values of another value is not called the response variable. The variable used to predict another variable is called the independent, <span>predictor or </span><span>explanatory variable. Hope this answers the question.</span>
