Answer:

12x+3y\leq 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the numbers of trophies you can buy

y ----> the numbers of medals  you can buy

we know that

The term "at most" means "less than or equal to"

so

The number of trophies multiplied by $12 plus the number of medals multiplied by $3 must be less than or equal to $60

The inequality that represent this situation is

12x+3y\leq 60

Indicate the equation of the given line in standard form.The line containing the median of the trapezoid whose vertices are R(-1
maxonik [38]
RS => y - 5 = (8 - 5)/(1 - (-1)) (x - (-1))
y - 5 = 3/2 (x + 1) => slope = 3/2
ST => y - 8 = (-2 - 8)/(7 - 1) (x - 1)
y - 8 = -10/6 (x - 1) = -5/3 (x - 1) => slope = -5/3
TU => y - (-2) = (0 - (-2))/(2 - 7) (x - 7)
y + 2 = 2/5(x - 7) => slope = 2/5
UR => y = 5/(-1 - 2) (x - 2)
y = -5/3 (x - 2) => slope = -5/3

The median is the line joining the midpoints of the non-parallel sides.
Midpoint of RS = ((-1 + 1)/2, (5 + 8)/2) = (0, 13/2)
Midpoint of TU = ((7 + 2)/2, -2/2) = (9/2, -1)

Equation of the line joining (0, 13/2) and (9/2, -1) is given by y - 13/2 = (-1 - 13/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = (-15/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = -15/9x
18y - 117 = -30x
30x + 18y = 117

Three red rods are 2cm longer than two blue rods. Three blue rods are 2cm longer than four red rods. How long is each rod?
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The length of each red rod is 10 cm and the length of each blue rod is 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of each red rod in centimeters

y ----> the length of each blue rod in centimeters

we know that

3x=2y+2 ----> equation A

3y=4x+2 ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (10,14)

see the attached figure

therefore

The length of each red rod is 10 cm and the length of each blue rod is 14 cm

If a =6, what is the value of 2a(3b + 5c)?
leva [86]

Answer:

<h2>36b + 60c</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Put a = 6 to the expression 2a(3b + 5c):

(2)(6)(3b + 5c) = 12(3b + 5c)               <em>use the distributive property</em>

= (12)(3b) + (12)(5c) = 36b + 60c

The sets of numbers 3, 4, 5 and 8, 15, 17 are Pythagorean triples. Use what you know about the Pythagorean Theorem and explain o
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

When we have 3 numbers, like:

a, b and c.

Such that:

a < b < c.

These numbers are a Pythagorean triplet if the sum of the squares of the two smaller numbers, is equal to the square of the larger number:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

This is equivalent to the Pythagorean Theorem, where the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the hypotenuse squared.

Now that we know this, we can check if the given sets are Pythagorean triples.

1)  3, 4, 5

Here we must have that:

3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2

solving the left side we get:

3^2 + 4^2 = 9 + 16 = 25

and the right side:

5^2 = 25

Then we have the same in both sides, this means that these are Pythagorean triples.

2) 8, 15, 17

We must have that:

8^2 + 15^2 = 17^2

Solving the left side we have:

8^2 + 15^2 = 64 + 225 = 289

And in the right side we have:

17^2 = 17*17 = 289

So again, we have the same result in both sides, which means that these numbers are Pythagorean triples
