Answer:

x=48, y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given x + y = 59

x - y = 37

solving for x, adding the equations we get,

2x = 96

x = 48

Now y = 11

An isosceles right-angled triangle is shown.

Bad White [126]

Answer:

$\boxed{x=4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of triangle = 0.5 × Base × Height

→ Substitute in the values

200 = 0.5 × 5x × 5x

→ Simplify

200 = 12.5x²

→ Divide both sides by 12.5

16 = x²

→ Square root both sides

4 = x ∴ x = 4

Find the distance between (-2, 8) and (11, 2). Round to the nearest hundredth.

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

14.32

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the distance using the distance formula:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

We then substitute (-2,8) as $(x_1,y_1)$ and (11,2) as $(x_2,y_2)$ .

$d=\sqrt{(11--2)^2+(2-8)^2} \\d=\sqrt{(13)^2+(-6)^2} \\d=\sqrt{169+36}\\d=\sqrt{205}=14.32$
