Xy = 50
x + y = 15
x = 15 - y
xy = 50
(5 - y)y = 50
5y - y^2 = 50
y^2 - 5y + 50 = 0
(y - 5)(y - 10) = 0
y - 5 = 0 or y - 10 = 0
y = 5 or y = 10
x + y = 15
For y = 5:
x + 5 = 15
x = 10
For y = 10
x + 10 = 15
x = 5
Answer: the numbers are 5 and 10.
3x + 2y = 12
2y = -3x + 12
y = -1.5x + 6
65:36 cannot be simplified. It would turn into a decimal number and we don’t put decimals in ratios
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Area of a parallelogram = base * height
area = 10 * 4 = 40 in squared
perimeter = 2(a + b)
perimeter = 2 * (5 + 10) = 2 * 15 = 30in
2. Area of triangle = 1/2 * base * height
area = 1/2 * 21 * 8 = 84 cm squared
perimeter = sum of outer perimeters
perimeter= 10cm + 17cm + 21cm = 48cm
3. area of trapezium = 1/2 * (a+b) * h
area = 1/2 * (6+12) * 4 = 36ft squared
perimeter = sum of outer perimeters
perimeter = 5ft + 6ft + 12ft + 5ft = 28ft
There is a little-known theorem to solve this problem.
The theorem says that
In a triangle, the angle bisector cuts the opposite side into two segments in the ratio of the respective sides lengths.
See the attached triangles for cases 1 and 2. Let x be the length of the third side.
Case 1:
Segment 5cm is adjacent to the 7.6cm side, then
x/7.6=3/5 => x=7.6*3/5=
4.56 cm
Case 2:
Segment 3cm is adjacent to the 7.6 cm side, then
x/7.6=5/3 => x=7.6*5/3=
12.67 cmThe theorem can be proved by considering the sine rule on the adjacent triangles ADC and BDC with the common side CD and equal angles ACD and DCB.
