They give us 2 pieces to the puzzle. Both are positive numbers...x and y.
1.) 1 number is 1 less than twice another number. (x = 2y -1)...and
2.) the sum of their squares is 106. (x^2 + y^2 = 106).
substitute the value for x into the second equation.
(2y-1)^2 + y^2 = 106
(2y-1) (2y-1) + y^2 = 106 (use distributive property)
4y^2 - 2y - 2y + 1 + y^2 = 106 (subtract 106 from both sides)
4y^2 - 2y - 2y + 1 + y^2 - 106 = 106 - 106 (combine like terms)
5y^2 - 4y - 105 = 0 (factor)
(y-5) (5y-21) = 0 (set to 0)
y - 5 = 0
y = 5
substitute the 5 into the equation for y (x = 2(5) - 1)
x = 9 if we square 9, we get 81.
subtracted from 106 we have 25...the square root of 25 is 5.
our answers are 5 and 9.
If you would like to solve the system of equations, you can do this using the following steps:
2x - y = -2
x = 14 + 2y
__________
<span>2x - y = -2
</span>2 * (14 + 2y) - y = -2
28 + 4y - y = -2
28 + 3y = -2
3y = -2 - 28
3y = -30 /3
y = -30/3
y = -10
<span>x = 14 + 2y = 14 + 2 * (-10) = 14 - 20 = -6
</span>
(x, y) = (-6, -10)
The correct result would be <span>(-6, -10).</span>
Answer:
y is equal to 65 so 115 isn't a possible answer
Answer: 30 degrees
This is the minimum amount of rotation.
Why this value? Well because 360/12 = 30
Consider a triangle with 3 sides. Specifically I mean an equilateral triangle. We can rotate it 120 degrees to have it line up with itself. Now notice that 360/3 = 120.
For a square, we can rotate it 90 degrees and we can say 360/4 = 90
So the general rule is that the minimum angle of rotation is 360/n, where n is the number of sides. This rule only works for regular polygons. Regular polygons have the same side length and the same angle measure (the side and angle measure won't necessarily be equal).
So going back to this 12 sided dodecagon, we have n = 12 and 360/n = 360/12 = 30 as the minimum angle of rotation. Each 30 degree rotation will have the polygon match up perfectly with its old image. The preimage and image will be identical.

Step-by-step explanation:
There's no answer here. Because -6<21.
