Answer: 15 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the length of the base of the smaller right angle triangle (drawn in broken lines).

The base of the full triangle would be (10 + x) cm. To determine x, we would apply the Pythagorean theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

12² = 3² + (10 + x)²

144 = 9 + (10 + x)²

(10 + x)² = 144 - 9 = 135

Taking square root of both sides

10 + x = √135 = 11.62

x = 11.62 - 10

x = 1.62

The total base of the triangle is 11.62cm

The formula for determining the area of a triangle is expressed as

Area = 1/2 × base × height

Area of the full triangle is

Area = 1/2 × 11.62 × 3 = 17.43 cm²

Area of the smaller triangle (with broken lines) is

Area = 1/2 × 1.62 × 3 = 2.43 cm²

Area of the given figure is

17.43 - 2.43 = 15 cm²

Type the correct answer in the box
algol13

c = cost of food/med for cats

d = cost of food/med for dog

y = total cost/spent

What you know:

y = 6c + d              [has 6 cats and 1 dog]  

c = 2/3d - 5        [cost for cat is 5 less than 2/3 cost for dog]

y = $195

y = 6c + d    

Substitute/plug in what you know, plug in (2/3d - 5) for c and 195 for y

195 = 6(2/3d - 5) + d        Distribute/multiply 6 into (2/3d - 5)

195 = 4d - 30 + d        Combine like terms

195 = 5d - 30      Add 30 on both sides of the equation

225 = 5d        Divide 5 on both sides

$45 = d

1/3(6x-15)=1/2(10x-4) solve for x
Tatiana [17]

Simplify 1/3(6x - 15) to 6x - 15/3

6x - 15/3 = 1/2(10x - 4)

Factor out the common term; 3

3(2x - 5)/3 = 1/2(10x - 4)

Cancel out 3

2x - 5 = 1/2(10x - 4)

Simplify 1/2(10x - 4) to 10x - 4/2

2x - 5 = 10x - 4/2

Factor out the common term; 2

2x - 5 = 2(5x - 2)/2

Cancel out 2

2x - 5 = 5x - 2

Subtract 2x from both sides

-5 = 5x - 2 - 2x

Simplify 5x - 2 - 2x to 3x - 2

-5 = 3x - 2

Add 2 to both sides

-5 + 2 = 3x

Simplify -5 + 2 to -3

-3 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

- 1 = x

Switch sides

<u>x = -1</u>

Answer:

4/6 chance

One is taken at random, we do not know the colour so we just take away 1 from both colours, this leaves us with 4/6 chance.
