Mathematics

The exact value of y is 4\sqrt{3}.

Solution:

The attached below shows how the formula is written.

Using geometric mean,

Total base length (p + q) = 8

q = 6

p = 8 – 6 = 2

Let us first find the height of the triangle.

h^2=pq

h^2=2\times6

h^2=12

Taking square root on both sides,

h=\sqrt{12}

Using Pythagoras theorem,

<em>In right triangle, square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.</em>

y^2=(\sqrt{12})^2+6^2

y^2=12+36

y^2=48

y=4\sqrt{3}

The exact value of y is 4\sqrt{3}.

Hello there &gt;3 i would like explanation for this :)
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

  75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t and u represent the tens and units digits, respectively.

  t = u + 2 . . . . the tens digit exceeds the units digit by 2

  t + 2u = 17 . . . . the sum of the tens digit and twice the units digit is 17

Substituting for t in the second equation, we get ...

  (u +2) +2u = 17

  3u = 15 . . . . . . . . subtract 2

  u = 5 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

  t = u+2 = 7

The number is 75.

_____

<em>Check</em>

7 exceeds 5 by 2. 7 + twice 5 = 7 + 10 = 17.
