Assuming that both triangles are an exact copy of one another, it is safe to assume that 3y-7 is equal to 41. Set up an equation

3y-7=41

Add 7 to both sides

3y=48

Divide both sides by 3

y=16

Now to find PN.

Based on what we know, we can assume that MP = PN. Let's make some equations!

MP = 17x-8 PN = 11x+4

17x-8 = 11x+4

Subtract 11x from both sides

6x-8 = 4

Add 8 to both sides

6x = 12

Divide by 2

x=2

Substitute 2 in for x in the equation for PN

11(2)+4

Multiply 11 by 2

22+4 = 26

PN = 26

Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions to the equation x^2-3x+1=0

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{5} }{2}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{5} }{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using:

$x=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2}-4*a*c} }{2*a}$

we will have two solutions.

x^2-3x+1=0

So, a=1 b=-3 c=1

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{-3^{2}-4*1*1} }{2*1}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{-3^{2}-4*1*1} }{2*1}$

We have two solutions:

$x_{1}=\frac{+3+\sqrt{5} }{2}\\\\x_{2}=\frac{+3-\sqrt{5} }{2}$

An item is regularly priced at 85$. It is on sale for 80% off the regular price. How much is discounted from the regular price?

laila [671]

$68 is discounted from the regular price.

To find this, you first divide 80% by 100 to get 0.8 (the decimal form of the percentage). Then, simply multiply 0.8 by 85 (or vise verse) to get $68. Since the question is asking for how much is discounted from the regular price, the final answer would be $68.

I hope this helps!

The set is not closed

Example:

-4 * -3 = 12 this is not a negative integer
