Answer:
yes 18 24 and 30 does form a right triangle
Answer:
120 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute y = x - 8 for y in 2x + 3y = 1:
2x + 3(x - 8) = 1
2x + 3x - 24 = 1
5x - 24 = 1
5x = 25
x = 5
Substitute 5 for x in y = x - 8 and 2x + 3y = 1
y = 5 - 8 --> y = -3
2(5) + 3y = 1 --> 10 + 3y = 1 --> 3y = -9 --> y = -3
x = 5 and y = -3
First set up an equation as your approach. I will use the equation x+4x=24 because that way you are saying that something pluse itself times 4 equals 24 which is what you want.
simplify the equation
5x=24
x=24/5
So you know onw piece will be 24/5 of a foot and the ither qould be that times 4 so 96/24 of a foot. In decimals it would be 4.8 and 19.2
