Find the with of a triangle as a 15 cm high in a hypogynous of a 19 cm

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

This other side of the triangle is equal to about 11.7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out the third side of the triangle we will just use the Pythagoras Theorem.

$c^{2} =a^{2} + b^{2}$

Since we know the hypotenuse and we know one of the legs, in order to find the second leg we just substitute the values and solve the equation and so we get...

$c^{2} =a^{2} + b^{2}\\19^{2} = 15^{2} + b^{2}\\361 = 225 + b^{2} \\$

$b^{2} = 361 - 225\\b^{2} = 136\\b = \sqrt{136} \\$

And so b ≈ 11.66190

a circus sold a total of 98 adult and senior tickets to a special lion traning show adult tickets are sold for $12 each and seno

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Correct answer: adult tickets x = 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x = ? number of the adult tickets

y = ? number of the senior tickets

12$ adult ticket price

8$ senior ticket price

We will solve this problem using a system of two equations with two variables

x + y = 98 we will multiply whole equation with number - 2 and get:

- 2 x - 2 y = - 196

12 x + 8 y = 1072 we will divide the whole equation by the number 4 and get:

3 x + 2 y = 268

- 2 x - 2 y = - 196

we will now add the first equation to the second and get:

3 x - 2 x = 268 - 196

x = 72

x + y = 98 ⇒ 72 + y = 98 ⇒ y = 98 - 72 = 26

y = 26
