Answer: x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 8, y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 12y = 60
x + 2y = 14
3x - 12y = 60
3x + 6y = 42 (multiply by 3 so the x is the same as the top equation)
6y = 18 (subtract the equations)
y = 18 / 6
= 3
To find x, substitute y into the 2nd equation since it is the simplest so:
x + 2(3) = 14
x + 6 = 14
x = 14 - 6
= 8
Answer:
y=-1/5x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
divide both sides by 5: 1/5x+y=1
subtract 1/5x so y is alone since slope-intercept has y=mx+b: y=-1/5x+1
The shape on the left is a square with side length of 12 cm
This means the height of the triangle is 12cm.
Knowing the height and the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean you can solve for the base.
20^2 = 12^2 + x^2
400 = 144 + x^2
Subtract 144 from both sides:
256 = x^2
Take the square root of both sides
X = sqrt(256)
X = 16
X = 16
