Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is usually a function of the differences in y divided by the differences in x, and it can be described in the following equation,
(1)
We can select any of the two points to be our first point, let's say, J(1,-4) is point 1, so J (x1,y1). In other words,
and by the same way, for K(-2,8). Therefore,
. By substituting these values in equation 1, we can deduce the following
Answer:
the -3 is being distributed. --> the 5 stays outside till the end. multiply the 3 inside first, then the negative. and then add the 5 to the final answer
5-3(d+21) = -->> 5-(3d+21)=--->>>5-3d-21=3d-16
Step-by-step explanation:
5-3(d+21) =
5-(3d+21)=
5-3d-21=
ans=3d-16
Answer:
Let x be the number of regular health bars you buy and y the number of strawberry health bars you buy. Then:
0.75x+1.25y=3.75
x+y>=3
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first equation, we have to assume that you will spend all of your money, otherwise it becomes an inequation. The money you spend on regular bars is 0.75x dollars and the money you spend on strawberry bars is 1.25y, so if you spend your 3.75 dollars on the bars, then 0.75x+1.25y=3.75.
For the second, you will always buy x+y health bars, regular and strawberry. There isn't enough information to make this into a equation, the only thing we can deduce is the inequation x+y>=3.
If we also assume that x and y are integers (we can't buy half-bars or one-fourth of a bar) then the minimum number of bars we can buy is 3 (3 strawberry bars) and the maximum is 5 bars (5 regular bars). x+y must be an integer too, so the possibilities for the second equation are x+y=3, x+y=4 and x+y=5. There is a finite number of solutions in any case.
Longer leg = x + 4
Shorter leg = x
Hypotenuse = x + 8
Using Pythagorean Theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
(x + 4)^2 + x^2 = (x + 8)^2
x^2 + 8x + 16 + x^2 = x^2 + 16x + 64
2x^2 + 8x + 16 = x^2 + 16x + 64
2x^2 +8x = x^2 + 16x + 48
2x^2 - 8x = x^2 + 48
x^2 - 8x = 48
x^2 - 8x - 48 = 0
You can complete the square from here or use the quadratic formula.
Completing the square:
x^2 - 8x = 48
x^2 - 8x + (-8/2)^2 = 48 + (-8/2)^2
x^2 - 8x + 16 = 48 + 16
(x - 4)(x - 4) = 64 or (x - 4)^2 = 64
x - 4 = +√64 OR x - 4 = -√64
x - 4 = +8 OR x - 4 = -8
x = 12 OR x = -4
However, you can't use negative 4 as a length because your length needs to be a positive.
So x will be 12.
Shorter leg: 12
Longer leg: 12 + 4
Hypotenuse: 12 + 8
