The triangle lengths would be 14√2, 7√2 and 7√6.

The sides of a 45-45-90 triangle can be listed as t, t and t√2.  The legs are each 14, so the hypotenuse will be 14√2.

This will also be the longest side of the 30-60-90 triangle.  Its sides can be listed as t, 2t and t√3.  Since the hypotenuse is the longest side, we have:

2t=14√2

Dividing both sides by 2, we have:
2t/2 = 14√2/2
t = 7√2

The remaining side will be t√3:

t = 7√2
t√3 = 7√2(√3) = 7√6

How many gallons of pure alcohol should be added to 40 gallons of a 20% solution so
Rudik [331]

Answer:

8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

i put equations as this:

x+40 = y

where x is galllons of pure mixture and y is the gallons of the new mixture

the other equation i id was:

x+0.2(40) = 0.25y

x+8 = 0.25y

y = 4x+32

solve using substitution

(x+40) = 4x+32

x = 4x-8

-3x = -8

x = 8/3

The sum of two numbers is 53 and the difference is 27. What are the numbers?
ikadub [295]

Answer:

The numbers are 39 and 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1, sum of the numbers:

 

x  +  y   =  53

 

Equation 2, difference of the numbers:

 

x  -  y  = 25

 

System of equations:

 

x  +  y  =  53

x  -  y   =  25

----------------

2x = 78

 

x = 39

 

Solve for y:

 

39  +  y  = 53

 

y  =  14

 

The numbers are 39 and 14.
