Algebra is Faster And Better Than “Basic” Math
Just as multiplying two by twelve is faster than counting to 24 or adding 2 twelve times, algebra helps us solve problems more quickly and easily than we could otherwise. Algebra also opens up whole new areas of life problems, such as graphing curves that cannot be solved with only foundational math skills.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The right triangle on the right side of the figure has a height of 6 (two same sides lengths) and a base of 3.
x is the hypotenuse (side opposite of 90 degree angle).
We can use the pythagorean theorem to find x. The pythagorean theorem tells us to square each leg (height and base) of the triangle and add it. It should be equal to the hypotenuse square.
For this triangle it means, we square 6 and 3 and add it. It should be equal to x squared. Then we can solve. Shown below:

<em>Now we can use property of radical
to simplify:</em>

Correct answer is C
Let x = cost of desktop computer; then x - 250 = cost of laptop computer
converting % to decimals, 9% = 0.09 and 6% = 0.06
Then, 0.09x + (x - 250)0.06 = $300
0.09x + 0.06x - 15 = $300
0.15x = $315
x = $2100
then x - 250 = $1850
Proof: $2100•0.09 + 1850•0.06 = $189 + $111 = $300
Scale factor is 1.5x
x is 10
y is 42
z is 36
i think angle is 150° i don’t know about this last one though
