Answer:

The diagonal of the house is approximately 19.21m

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the shape of the house as a rectangular building, if length l is 15m and width w is 12m, then to find the diagonal, we can relate the shape now formed to a right angle triangle as the diagonal line divides the rectangular house into 2 right angled triangle.

We can now say the diagonal line is d.

To solve the question, we can consider pythagoras theorem which is

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

The length l and width w can be taking as opposite and adjacent a and b respectively, while diagonal d can be taking as hypothenus c

l^{2} + w^{2} = d^{2}

Substitute for length 15m and width 12m, we will have

15^{2} + 12^{2} = d^{2}

225 + 144 = d^{2}

369 =  d^{2}

d = \sqrt{369}

d = 19.2094

d ≈ 19.21m

Answer:solve for x

-3x+5y=-15

Add -5y to both sides

-3x+5y+-5y=-15+-5y

-3x=-5y-15

Divide both sides by -3

-3x/-3=-5y-15/-3

x= 5/3 y +5

I hope that's help!

Which expressions are equivalent to 12x - 6? ​
iren2701 [21]
<h3>Answer</h3>

B and E

<h3>Explanation</h3>

A) It's wrong because

- 6 \times (2x - 1) =  - 12x + 6

B) It's right because

6 \times (2x - 1) = 12x - 6

C) It's wrong because

6x \times (2 - 1) = 6x \times 1 = 6x

D) It's wrong because

- 6x \times (2x - 1) =  - 12 {x}^{2} + 6

E) It's right because

- 6 \times ( - 2x + 1) = 12x - 6

F) It's wrong because

6 \times ( - 2x + 1) =  - 12x + 6
