Hey there,

An equivalent expression to 12a + 6b would be 6(2a + b).

Hope I helped :)

First notice that the triangle with sides $x,y,a$ and the triangle with sides $z,a+b,x$ are similar. This is true because the angle between sides $x,y$ in the smaller triangle is clearly $30^\circ$ , while the angle between sides $y,z$ in the larger triangle is clearly $60^\circ$ . So the triangles are similar with sides $x,y,a$ corresponding to $a+b,z,x$ , respectively.

Now both triangles are $30^\circ-60^\circ-90^\circ$ , which means there's a convenient ratio between its sides. If the length of the shortest leg is $\ell_1$ , then the length of the longer leg is $\ell_2=\sqrt3\ell_1$ and the hypotenuse has length $\ell_3=\sqrt{{\ell_1}^2+{\ell_2}^2}=2\ell_1$ .

Since $x$ is the shortest leg in the larger triangle, it follows that $a+b=2x$ , so $a+b=15=2x\implies x=\dfrac{15}2$

If A, B, and C are the measures of the angles of any triangle and if a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides opposite the cor

MrRa [10]

Answer:

C. (1/2)acsinA

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is that, A, B, and C are the measures of the angles of a triangle and a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides opposite the corresponding angles.

So, the expression that does not represent the area of the triangle is :

C. (1/2)acsinA

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST if you explain your answer!!

Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to delete the root by ^2. First you need to leave it alone

$\sqrt{x+7}-x=5\\\sqrt{x+7}=5-x\\(\sqrt{x+7} )^{2}=(5-x)^{2} \\x+7=25+10x+x^2\\x-10x=25+x^2-7\\-9x=18+x^2\\-x^2-9x-18=0\\-1(x^2+9x+18)=0\\x^2+9x+18=\frac{0}{-1}\\x^2+9x+18=0\\(x+6)(x+3)=0\\x+6=0 ===> x=-6\\x+3=0 ===> x=-3\\Checking\\\sqrt{-6+7}-(-6)=5===>\sqrt{1}+6=7\neq5 \\\\\sqrt{-3+7}-(-3)=5===>\sqrt{4}+3=5=5\\\\So \\x=-3$

I think the correct answer is: A. The batting averages of the Tigers vary less than the batting averages of the Braves. Very sorry if I'm incorrect.
