Answer:

<em>Money in her purse is Rs. 500.</em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the money in her purse = Rs. x\\

Let the money in her Money box = Rs. y

As per question statement,

  • Double the money in her purse (i.e. 2 \times x) and add it to the amount in money box, she gets Rs. 1700.

2x+y=1700  ........ (1)

  • Triple the money in her purse (i.e. 3\times x) and add it to amount in money box (y), she gets Rs. 2200.

3x+y=2200 ....... (2)

<u>To find: </u>Money in her purse = ? i.e. x=?

Let us solve for x using the two linear equations.

We can use substitution method here i.e. find value of one variable from one equation and then substitute that value in other equation.

Using equation (1), we get the value of y as follows:

y=1700-2x

Now, let us put this value of y in equation (2) to find the value of x:

3x+1700-2x=2200\\\Rightarrow x+1700 = 2200\\\Rightarrow x=2200-1700\\\Rightarrow x = Rs.\ 500

<em>Money in her purse is Rs. 500.</em>

Answer:

From the information we can conclude that the triangle is a isosceles triangle.

First, we can calculate the hypotenuse by using pythagorean theorem:

√(6² + 6²) = √(36 + 36) =√64 = 8 (cm)

To calculate the area of the triangle, we first need to know the height of it.

Since this is a isosceles triangle, the altitude (which is also the height) will also  be the median of that triangle.

Then we also have a 90° angle, this triangle is also a right triangle, and in right triangle, the median will equal half of the hypotenuse.

From the reasoning above, we can now calculate the height of the triangle:

8/2 = 4(cm)

The area of the triangle should be:

S = hb/2 = (4 . 6)/2 = 12 (cm²)

Find the length of UV.
katovenus [111]
7x-8 (2) = 12x+8
14x-16 = 12x+8
-12x -12x
2x-16 = 8
+16 +16
2x = 24

÷2 ÷2
x= 12

UV= 7x-8
UV= 7(12)-8
UV= 84-8
UV= 76
