Hi!
y = 16
x = 32
<h3 /><h3>
In 30-60-90 triangles, the hypotenuse is double the length of the shortest leg, and the longer leg is 
times the shorter leg.</h3>
We are given the longest leg. To find the shortest leg, we must divide the longest leg value by
The radicals cancel out and we are left with 16.
The length of y (the shortest leg) is 16.
Now, we also know that the hypotenuse is double the shortest leg. The shortest leg is 16, so if we double that, it's 32.
Judging by the question at hand I generated this equation.
x+y=12
x=2y
I begin this question by plugging in the x=2y into the equation for x.
So the new equation should be 3y=12. I then divide the entire equation by 3 to get y=4.
Next I plug y=4 into the equation, the new equation should be x+4=12. I then subtract 4 from both sides to get x=8.
The two numbers are :
x=8 y=4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Your line has the wrong slope. Its slope is ½, but the equation tells you that the slope is ¾.
The point (0,2) is correct, but (-4,0) is incorrect. If x=-4 then y=-1, not 0.
Plot (-4,-1), then draw the line passing through (-4,-1) and (0,2).
To show that they used the same amount of ribbon you could take the 1 yard and divided into different sized equal groups.
1 yard divided by four equals 1/4 yard for each of four ribbons.
1 yard divided by six equals 1/6 yard for each of six ribbons.
You could have ribbons the size of 1/4 our yard and 1/6 yard, but you would have different amounts of each.
