The first answer is 80, and the second answer is still 65.5. Hope this helps!
ΔABC is a 45 - 45 - 90 triangle. The pattern of its sides is as follows:
Each leg = 1 unit (and both legs are that way, since the triangle is isosceles - so two sides are the same)
Hypotenuse = √2 units.
So if we know either leg, we multiply by √2 to get the hypotenuse. In reverse, we divide by √2 if we know the hypotenuse to get the measurement of a leg.
Our problem tells us that the hypotenuse AC is 10 units. We divide 10 by √2 to get the measurement of leg AB. Since it's a 45 -45 - 90 triangle, AB = BC.

to rationalize the radical

Thus, each leg is 5\sqrt{2} [/tex].
A=number of seats in section A
B=number of seats in section B
C=number of seats in section C
We can suggest this system of equations:
A+B+C=55,000
A=B+C ⇒A-B-C=0
28A+16B+12C=1,158,000
We solve this system of equations by Gauss Method.
1 1 1 55,000
1 -1 -1 0
28 16 12 1,158,000
1 1 1 55,000
0 -2 -2 -55,000 (R₂-R₁)
0 12 16 382,000 (28R₁-R₂)
1 1 1 55,000
0 -2 -2 -55,000
0 0 4 52,000 (6R₂+R₃)
Therefore:
4C=52,000
C=52,000/4
C=13,000
-2B-2(13,000)=-55,000
-2B-26,000=-55,000
-2B=-55,000+26,000
-2B=-29,000
B=-29,000 / -2
B=14,500.
A + 14,500+13,000=55,000
A+27,500=55,000
A=55,000-27,500
A=27,500.
Answer: there are 27,500 seats in section A, 14,500 seats in section B and 13,000 seats in section C.
BINGO! 355 is the correct answer.
Hope this helps.

Answer:
ML = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The parallel lines divide the transversals proportionally.
ML/LK = JH/HG
ML/10 = 6/8
ML = 10(6/8) = 7.5
The length of ML is 7.5.

We don't need to solve for x. If ML = x-2, then x=9.5.
