5 0

Answer:

x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

9 = - x + 8 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

1 = - x ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

- 1 = x ⇒ x = - 1

The legs of a right triangle are 12 cm and 16 cm. What is the length of the hypotenuse? 15 cm 17 cm 20 cm 28 cm
GalinKa [24]
Answer: 20 cm

To solve this, use the Pythagorean Theorem, a² + b² = c², where a and b are the legs of the right triangle, and c is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.
**The Pythagorean Theorem only works for right triangles.**

Substitute in the values.
a² +  b² = c²
12² + 16² = c²

Solve for c, the hypotenuse.
12² + 16² = c²               
144 + 256 = c²
400 = c²
c = √400
c = 20

425 is decreased to 319
tatuchka [14]
425 is decreased to 319.

The above statement means that a number should be deducted from 425 to get the difference of 319.

Let x be the unknown number.

425 - x = 319
425 - 319 = x
106 = x

106 is the unknown number.

It can be phrased like this: 425 decreased by 106 is 319.

Which graph represents the function y = 2/3x-2
Alina [70]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

so the y-int is where the point is on the y-axis (0,X). Or, in this situation-2.

for slope, you just need to do rise over run, or up and down first then, left and right. If I do that for C, I go 2 up and 3 right. So the slope os 2/3 (P.S. up and right is positive, and down and left is negative)

William is 3 years, older than Charmine. The sum of 3 times Charmaine's age and 2 times William's age is 76. How old are William
lana66690 [7]

William is 17 years old and Charmaine is 14 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the age of William and y be the age of Charmaine

Then

William is 3 years, older than Charmine.

x = y+3    Eqn 1

The sum of 3 times Charmaine's age and 2 times William's age is 76.

2x+3y = 76     Eqn 2

Putting x = y+3 in Eqn 2

2(y+3)+3y=76\\2y+6+3y=76\\5y+6=76\\Subtracting\ 6\ from\ both\ sides\\5y+6-6=76-6\\5y=70\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 5\\\frac{5y}{5} = \frac{70}{5}\\y=14\\Putting\ the\ value\ of\ y\ in\ Eqn\ 1\\x=y+3\\x=14+3\\x=17

Hence,

William is 17 years old and Charmaine is 14 years old.
