Equations:
b = 2a + 1
a * b = 36 --> a * (2a + 1) = 36 --> 2a^2 + a - 36 = 0
Factor: 
(2a + 9)(a - 4) = 0
2a + 9 = 0 --> a = -9/2 = -4.5
a - 4 = 0 --> a = 4
Assuming a is an integer, then a = 4 so b = 2(4) + 1 = 9
Answer: 4 and 9

Honestly, this one works out to be a quadratic (which I don't really feel like going into detail) . . . so instead, since this one is fairly simple to think about, I'll simply try "trial and error" . . .

Possible combinations:
1 × 36 = 36
2 × 18 = 36
3 × 12 = 36
4 × 9 = 36
6 × 6 = 36

Obviously, multiply 4 × 2 = 8 . . . and 9 is one more than 8, which is 2 times the first number, 4 . . . so that's your answer . . .

the numbers are 4 and 9

Triangle A B C is reflected over side A C and then is dilated to form smaller triangle D E C. Angles B C A and D C E are right a
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

A. △ABC ~ △DEC

B. ∠B ≅ ∠E

D. 3DE = 2AB

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation involves the reshaping or resizing of a given figure. The types are: reflection, dilation, rotation and translation.

In the given question, the two operations performed on triangle ABC are reflection and dilation to form triangle DEC. The length of each side of triangle DEC is two-third of that of ABC. Therefore, the correct statements about the two triangles are:

i. △ABC ~ △DEC

ii. ∠B ≅ ∠E

iii. 3DE = 2AB

Describe the function over each part of its domain. State whether it is constant, increasing, or decreasing, and state the slope
vivado [14]

The function is illustrated below based on the information.

<h3>How to describe the function?</h3>

When x <= 8000

The cost remains constant at 0.35 when x increases from 0 to 8000. The slope of the cost function over this part is 0

When 8000 < x <= 20000

The cost remains constant at 0.75 when x increases from 8000 to 20000 and the slope of the cost function over this part is 0.
