What is the value of x, given the following system of linear equations? x + y = 8 and x - y = 2

zaharov [31]

Answer:

$x = 5$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x + y = 8 \\ x - y = 2 \\ x + y + (x - y) = 8 + 2 \\ x + y + x - y = 10 \\ 2x = 10 \\ \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{10}{2} \\ x = 5 \\ \\ x + y = 8 \\ 5 + y = 8 \\ y = 8- 5 \\ y = 3 \\ \\ x - y = 2 \\ 5 - 3 = 2 \\ 2 = 2$

If a 12 cm altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the hypotenuse into segments with ratio 3:2, what is the lengt

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The length of hypotenuse is $10\sqrt{6}$ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's length of hypotenuse is x

Since, a 12 cm altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the hypotenuse into segments with ratio 3:2

so,

First part of hypotenuse length is

$=\frac{3}{5}x$

Second part of hypotenuse length is

$=\frac{2}{5}x$

now, we can draw triangle

We can see that

triangles ABD and ABC are similar

so, the ratio of their sides must be equal

$\frac{\frac{3x}{5} }{12}=\frac{12}{\frac{2x}{5}}$

now, we can solve for x

$\frac{3x}{5}\times\frac{2x}{5}=144$

$6x^2=3600$

$x=10\sqrt{6}$

So,

The length of hypotenuse is $10\sqrt{6}$ cm

Evaluate x/y when x=9/4 and y=3/5

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

$\displaystyle x/y=\frac{15}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Division of fractions</u>

To calculate the division of fractions a/b and c/d, it's usually easier to multiply a/b by the reciprocal of the denominator, that is:

$\displaystyle \frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{c}{d}}=\frac{a}{b}\cdot \frac{d}{c}$

We will evaluate x/y when x=9/4 and y=3/5:

$\displaystyle \frac{\frac{9}{4}}{\frac{3}{5}}=\frac{9}{4}\cdot \frac{5}{3}$

$\displaystyle=\frac{45}{12}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle \boxed{x/y=\frac{15}{4}}$
