Answer:

An equation is distinct because it has an equals sign, and that in itself creates a relationship. Usually, it's relating the left side to the right side in terms of that fact that they're equal to each other- unlike inequalities which form more of a relation between two quantities that can be greater than or less than.

Answer:

An equation is basically a way to show a relationship of variables (x,y,a,b, etc) and numbers. The relationship between these numbers and variables is a lot like a laundry bag. If you are given a laundry bag that only has your pants in it, you could call this laundry bag "x". Then you have your other laundry bag which only has your shirts in it, this could be called laundry bag "y". The amount of shirts and pants in each of those laundry bags could be counted separately, or if you combine them, counted together.

Step-by-step explanation:

This could be shown like:

x+y= total amount of clothes.

If you have 5 shirts which equals y, and 2 pants which equals x, you could quickly count how many clothes in total you have.

x+y=Total amount of clothes

Place x=2 and y=5 into that equation.

2+5=7

Which gives you your total clothes.

A chemist has a 40% alcohol solution and a 25% alcohol solution. How much of each should he mix together to get 50 liters of a 3
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

33 1/3 L of the 40% solution, 16 2/3 L of the 25% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up two equations...

Let x represent the number of Liters of the 40% solution

Let y represent the number of Liters of the 25% solution

We need 50 liters total, so

x + y = 50

and we need the 50 L to be 35% solution, so

0.4x = 0.25y =  0.35(50)  

Solve the first equation for one variable...

x = 50 - y             (subtract y from both sides in equation 1)

Now substitute that value into the second equation...

0.4(50 - y) + 0.25y = 17.5      (x becomes 50 - y, 0.35(50) = 17.5)

Now solve for y...

20 - 0.4y + 0.25y = 17.5

  -0.15y = -2.5

      y = 16.66666667

        y = 16 2/3 L

So we need to plug that into the first equation to find 'x'

x + 16 2/3 = 50

x = 50 - 16 2/3

x = 33 1/3

Find m\angle Cm∠Cm, angle, C.<br> Round to the nearest degree.<br><br> Help Course Challenge
astra-53 [7]
Hello,

1. Since Angle C has the longest side for this triangle, it will have the largest degree value.

2. Use the Law of Cosines and inverse properties of “theta” to solve for Angle C. (Ensure that the calculator used is in “degree mode”, not “radian mode”.

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2(a)(b)(cos (C))
15^2 = 11^2 + 14^2 - 2(11)(14)(cos(C))
225 - 317 = -2(11)(14)(cos(C))
-92 / -2(11)(14) = cos(C)
cos(C) becomes ->> cos^-1[92 /-2(11)(14)] = 72.62° ->> to the nearest degree is 73°

The answer for angle C, 73°, is logical because the triangle in the picture represents a 60-60-60 triangle, known as an equilateral triangle.

Good luck to you!

Can someone please help me on this ASAP

<span>(a) Triangles ABC and PQR are similar triangles since they both share 2 congruent angles and therefore their 3rd angle is also congruent. So the triangles are similar due to the AAA similarity theorem. (b) The area of triangle PQR is 1 million times larger than the area of triangle ABC. This can be shown since the area of a triangle is 1/2 base times height. You can show that the base of triangle PQR is 1000 times larger than the base of triangle ABC. And since all the sides are in proportion to each other, the height of triangle PQR is also 1000 times larger than the height of triangle ABC. And since 1000 times 1000 equals 1,000,000 or 1 million, the area of triangle PQR is 1 million times larger than triangle ABC.</span>
