There are two ways to do this but the way I prefer is to make one of the equations in terms of one variable and then 'plug this in' to the second equation. I will demonstrate
Look at equation 1,
this can quite easily be manipulated to show
.
Then because there is a y in the second equation (and both equations are simultaneous) we can 'plug in' our new equation where y is in the second one
which can then be solved for x since there is only one variable
and then with our x solution we can work out our y solution by using the equation we manipulated
.
So the solution to these equations is x=-2 when y=6
<span>1) We are given that PA = PB, so PA ≅ PB by the definition of the radius.
</span>When you draw a perpendicular to a segment AB, you take the compass, point it at A and draw an arc of size AB, then you do the same pointing the compass on B. Point P will be one of the intersections of those two arcs. Therefore PA and PB correspond to the radii of the arcs, which were taken both equal to AB, therefore they are congruent.
2) We know that angles PCA and PCB are right angles by the definition of perpendicular.
Perpendicularity is the relation between two lines that meet at a right angle. Since we know that PC is perpendicular to AB by construction, ∠PCA and ∠PCB are right angles.
3) PC ≅ PC by the reflexive property congruence.
The reflexive property congruence states that any shape is congruent to itself.
4) So, triangle ACP is congruent to triangle BCP by HL, and AC ≅ BC by CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent).
CPCTC states that if two triangles are congruent, then all of the corresponding sides and angles are congruent. Since ΔACP ≡ ΔBCP, then the corresponding sides AC and BC are congruent.
5) Since PC is perpendicular to and bisects AB, P is on the perpendicular bisector of AB by the definition of the perpendicular bisector.
<span>The perpendicular bisector of a segment is a line that cuts the segment into two equal parts (bisector) and that forms with the segment a right angle (perpendicular). Any point on the perpendicular bisector has the same distance from the segment's extremities. PC has exactly the characteristics of a perpendicular bisector of AB. </span>
I believe the answer is C also trying using the website desmos it helps a lot with graphing
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Total costs = 4 + (3 * 2) + 5 + 15
Total costs = 4 + 6 + 5 + 15
Total costs = $ 30
Substituting values we have:
Total change = 32 - 30
Total change = 2 $
Answer:
78 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter of a kite formula: 2(a+b)
a= 18 inches
b= 21 inches
2(18+21)
2(39)
78 inches
