Answer:

72.1 and -48.1

Step-by-step explanation:

I set up the equations x + y = 24 and x*y=-3468. Then I substituted for y and used the quadratic formula to come to two numbers rounded to about 72.1 and -48.1. Hope that helps :)

A line passes through the point (-6,9) and has a slope of 3/2. Write an equation in slope-intercept form for this line.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

y=3/2x+18

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given a point (-6,9) and a slope of 3/2

We want to write the equation of this line in slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form is written as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Since we already know the slope of the line as 3/2, we can substitute it as m into the equation:

y=3/2x+b

Now let's find b

Since the equation of the line passes through (-6,9), we can use it to help solve for b

Substitute -6 as x and 9 as y:

9=3/2(-6)+b

Multiply

9=-9+b

Add 9 to both sides

18=b

Substitute 18 as b into the equation.

y=3/2x+18

Hope this helps!

Which other angles could be in that triangle?

CaHeK987 [17]

The other angles in the isosceles triangle with an angle of 100° will be 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets define an isosceles triangle first.

"An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two equal sides and two equal angles.

Given that an angle of the triangle is 100°

We know that the sum of internal angles of a triangle is 180°

The sum of remaining two angles is:

=180°-100°

=80°

As the triangle is an isosceles triangle, the two angles will be equal.

So the angles will be:

$=\frac{80}{2}\\=40$

The other angles in the isosceles triangle with an angle of 100° will be 40°

Find the value of x² - x+1 when x=√3 -1, in the form a+b√3 where a and b are integers

lidiya [134]

Answer:

$6-3\sqrt{3}$

If you compare this to $a+b\sqrt{3}$ , then $a=6$ and $b=-3$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given $x=\sqrt{3}-1$ and we are asked to find the value of $x^2-x+1$ .

So we will need to find $x^2$ .

$x=\sqrt{3}-1$

Square both sides:

$x^2=(\sqrt{3}-1)^2$

Expand using identity: $(x-a)^2=x^2-2ax+a^2$ .

$x^2=(\sqrt{3})^2-2(\sqrt{3})(1)+1^2$

$x^2=3-2\sqrt{3}+1$

$x^2=4-2\sqrt{3}$

Let's go back to the full $x^2-x+1$ .

$x^2-x+1$

$(4-2\sqrt{3})-(\sqrt{3}-1)+1$

$4-2\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{3}+1+1$

$6-3\sqrt{3}$

If you compare this to $a+b\sqrt{3}$ , then $a=6$ and $b=-3$ .

There are 53 regular pencils in the box and some colored pencils in the box. There are a total of 84 pencils. How many colored p

vodka [1.7K]

Let be "x" the number of colored pencils in the box.

According to the information given in the exercise, there are 84 pencils in the box and 53 of them are regular pencils.

Knowing this information, you can set up the following equation:

$x+53=84$

Finally, you have to solve for the variable "x" in order to find its value. In order to do this, you can apply the Subtraction property of equality by subtracting 53 from both sides of the equation:

$\begin{gathered} x+53-(53)=84-(53) \\ x=31 \end{gathered}$

The answer is: There are 31 colored pencils in the box.
