Answer:

The answers in numerical order are 4, 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

i)Let the two required numbers be x, y .

ii) It is given that x = y + 5

iii) it is also given that x + y  = 3y - 3.

iv) substituting the value of x from ii) in equation iii) we get

   (y + 5) + y = 3y - 3    ⇒ 2y = 8    ∴ y = 4

v) Substituting the value of y from equation iv) in equation ii) we get

    x = 4 + 5 = 9

vi) The answers in numerical order are 4, 9.

A brace for a shelf has the shape of a right triangle. its hypotenuse is 14 inches long and the two legs are equal in length. ho
maks197457 [2]
To answer this item, we make use of the equation derive from the Pythagorean theorem for right triangles which states that the square of the hypotenuse (the longest side) is equal to the sum of the squares of the two shorter sides. If we let x be the measure of both the shorter sides (we call this as legs), we have,
                         (14 in)² = (x²) + (x²)
Simplifying the equation,
                         196 in² = 2x²
Divide both sides of the equation by 2,
                         98 in² = x²
To get the value of x, we get the square root of both sides of the equation,
                         x = sqrt (98) = 7√2 inches

Hence, the measure of each leg of the right triangle is 7√2 inches or approximately 9.9 inches.

Sinxcosxtanx=1-cos^2x
ycow [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

sin  x \: cos  x \: tanx = 1 -  {cos}^{2} x \\ LHS \\= sin  x \: cos  x \: tanx \\  =sin  x \: cos  x \: \times  \frac{sin  x}{cos  x}  \\  = sin  x \: \times  \frac{sin  x}{1} \\  ={sin}^{2}  x \\  = 1 -  {cos}^{2} x \\  = RHS \\  \therefore \: sin  x \: cos  x \: tanx = 1 -  {cos}^{2} x \\ Hence \: Proved.

What does the number line above represent?
sattari [20]
It is the last one. A closed circle means less than or equal to, so that crosses out the top two. The third says five is greater and we know that is not true because the line is decreasing in value. It must be the fourth.
