Find x, if 3x − 5(y + x ) ^2 = 16 and 4x + 2(y + x )^ 2 = 30

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by solving for $(y+x)^2$ which is a common expression for both equations. Then in the first equation:

$3\,x5\,(y+x)^2=16\\3x-16=5\,(y+x)^2\\(y+x)^2=\frac{3\,x-16}{5}$

and in the second equation:

$4\,x+2\,(y+x)^2=30\\2\,(y+x)^2=30-4\,x\\(y+x)^2=15-2\,x$

Now we make the two $(y+x)^2$ expressions equal so we get:

$\frac{3\,x-16}{5} =15-2\,x\\3\,x-16=75-10\,x\\13\,x=75+16\\13\,x=91\\x=7$

An architect wants to draw a rectangle with a diagonal of 13 centimeters. The length of the rectangle is to be 3 centimeters mor

butalik [34]

Answer:

The rectangle is 3.2 cm by 12.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

See attached image for a diagram.

Choose w to represent the width because the length is described by referring to the width: it's 3 more than (add 3) triple (multiplied by 3) the width.

Length = 3w + 3

The diagonal forms two right triangles, each with leg = w, other leg = 3w + 3, hypotenuse = 13.

The Pythagorean Theorem says $(\text{leg})^2+(\text{leg})^2=(\text{hypotenuse})^2$ so

$w^2+(3w+3)^2=13^2\\\\w^2+9w^2+18w+9=169\\\\10w^2+18w-160=0\\\\5w^2+9w-80=0\\$

Now solve using the Quadratic Formula with $a=5,\,b=9,\,c=-80$ .

$w=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\w=\frac{-9\pm\sqrt{81+1600}}{10}\\\\w=\frac{-9\pm\sqrt{1681}}{10}\\\\w=\frac{-9\pm41}{10}\\\\w=-5\text{ or }w=3.2$

The negative root makes no sense as a distance, so the width of the rectangle is 3.2 cm. The length is 3(3.2) + 3 = 12.6 cm.

An angle measures 40° less than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Vilka [71]

Step-by-step explanation:

(180-x)-40=X

140 -x=X

140= 2x

x=140/2

x=70

the answer is 70 degree
