Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
11
Discussion:
Let "n" be the smaller number. Then
n * (n+5) = 176.
My first reaction to this problem was to factor 176 in my head. That's 176 = 16 * 11 and 16 is 5 more than 11. So that's the solution!.... Now let's solve it using the brute force approach:
n(n+5) = 176 =>
n^2 + 5n - 176 = 0 => use the quadratic formula
n = ( -5 +\- sqrt( 5^2 - 4(1)(-176)) ) /2
= ( -5 +\- sqrt( 25 + 704) )/ 2
= ( -5 +\- sqrt (729) ) /2 => as sqrt(729) = 27
= (-5 +\- 27) / 2 =>
= (-5 + 27)/2 or ( -5 -27)/2 =>
= 22/2 or -32/2 =>
= 11 or -16
But -16 is not allowed as the question wants a positive value.
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
5/6 can´t be simplified
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
In order for two figures to be congruent, each named angle must correspond and be congruent to ONE other angle. If you have ZYV and XWV, Z must be congruent to X as they both show up first in the ordering.
This means...
∠Z≅∠X
∠Y≅∠W
∠V≅∠V
Our first answer option has to do with parallelism, which does not influence if certain angles are congruent or not.
For the second answer option, ∠Z is congruent to ∠X, not ∠Y, so it is incorrect.
For the third answer option, it shows that ∠Z would correspond to ∠V, but it does not, so it is also incorrect.
For D, ∠Z IS congruent to ∠X, and ∠W IS congruent to ∠Y
Therefore, our answer is D) ∠Z≅∠X and ∠W ≅ ∠Y.
I hope this helps!
It’s b because it’s -85 f so the planet is colder
