This problem cannot be solved unless we are given figure NPQR is a rhombus.
In that case, then all sides are equal, meaning
5x+16=9x-32
Solve for x
9x-5x=16+32
4x=48
x=12
Each side (including PQ) then equals 5x+16=5*12+16=76
Answer:
(15,18)
Step-by-step explanation:
write two equations with the information provided.
2x + 3y = 84
x + 4y = 87
use the property of substitution to answer.
x + 4y = 87, x = 87 - 4y
2(87 - 4y) + 3y = 84
174 - 8y + 3y = 84
174 - 84 = 8y - 3y
90 = 5y
90/5 = y
y = 18
Add the value of Y to an original equation. Solve for X
2x + 3(18) = 84
2x + 54 = 84
2x = 84 - 54
2x = 30
x = 30/2
x = 15
Answer:
Ya, Its B.
Step-by-step explanation:
You divide the centimeter value you buy a 100 to get the meter value
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
A) The answer is 24 m
x - the distance from the spot on the beach to the parking lot
Triangles that are divided by x distance is similar, and therefore:
x : 18 = 32 : x
x * x = 18 * 32
x² = 576
x = √576
x = 24
Thus, the distance <span>the spot on the beach from the parking lot is 24 m.

b) The answer is 40 m.
x - the distance from the spot on the beach to the parking lot
b - distance from the parking lot to the refreshment stand.
First, find the horizontal leg (a) of the biggest right triangle. According to the Pythagorean theorem:
a² + b² = c²
a = ?
b = ?
c = 32 m + 18 m = 50 m
Find a from the right triangle which sides are a (as a hypotenuse), x, and 18 m.
x² + 18² = a²
x = 24
24² + 18² = a²
576 + 324 = a²
900 = a²
a = √900
a = 30 m
Now, find b:
a² + b² = c²
30² + b² = 50²
900 + b² = 2500
b² = 2500 - 900
b² = 1600
b = √1600
b = 40 m
Thus the distance from the parking lot to get the refreshment stand is 40 m.
