I'm pretty sure you are asking for the value of b. Let's actually write it and then solve it:
Solving for b yields:
So,
b = 19.59. If you want the answer in simplified radical form, we can also do that:
So,
b = 8√6 = 19.59
It would be: 63 / 28 = 9 / 4
So, your answer is 9/4
Hope it helped.
Answer:
8 were yoused because 8 times 3 =24 so if you subtract you get 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
8 and -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be l and s.
We have equations:
l = 5s + 18
3l + 4s = 16
Solve for s by substituting l into the second equation:
3(5s + 18) + 4s = 16
15s + 54 + 4s = 16
19s = 16 - 54
19s = -38
s = -38/19
s = -2
Find the value of l:
l = 5(-2) + 18
l = -10 + 18
l = 8
On a right triangle, to find one missing side you can use this equation
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a and b are the sides next to the right angle, and c is the hypotenuse (side not connected to right angle).
You first need to find the length of the dotted line before finding x. This is because to be able to use the above formula, you have to know the length of two out of three of the sides.
To solve the length of the dotted line, note that it also makes a triangle with the 5 unit line and the 5 √5 unit line. You can plug these numbers into the formula.
(5)^2+b^2=(5 √5)^2
25+b^2=125
b^2=100
b=10
Now that you know the length of the dotted line is 10 units, you can now solve for x
(20)^2+(10)^2=x^2
400+100=x^2
500=x^2
x= √500, which equals 22.361
