How can we write an expression to show 3 less than a number?

Mathematics
1 answer:
lakkis [162]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the unknown number,

For making the diagram to model this problem,

Take a grid that shows x,

Divide this grid into two parts,

If first part is of 3 then second part would be x - 3

That is, we are taking away 3 from the unknown number,

Hence, the required expression would be x - 3

2x + y = 3 is the blue boundary line...the shading is below the line which means 2x + y is less than or equal to 3

y - x = 2 is the red boundary line... the shading is above the line which means
y - x is greater than or equal to 2

ANSWER: 2x + y is less than or equal to 3 and y - x is greater than or equal to 2

What are the coordinates of the orthocenter of △XYZ with vertices at X(−3, 3) , Y(1, 3) , and Z(−3, 0) ?
klemol [59]
<span>Orthocenter is at (-3,3) The orthocenter of a triangle is the intersection of the three heights of the triangle (a line passing through a vertex of the triangle that's perpendicular to the opposite side from the vertex. Those 3 lines should intersect at the same point and that point may be either inside or outside of the triangle. So, let's calculate the 3 lines (we could get by with just 2 of them, but the 3rd line acts as a nice cross check to make certain we didn't do any mistakes.) Slope XY = (3 - 3)/(-3 - 1) = 0/-4 = 0 Ick. XY is a completely horizontal line and it's perpendicular will be a complete vertical line with a slope of infinity. But that's enough to tell us that the orthocenter will have the same x-coordinate value as vertex Z which is -3. Slope XZ = (3 - 0)/(-3 - (-3)) = 3/0 Another ick. This slope is completely vertical. So the perpendicular will be complete horizontal with a slope of 0 and will have the same y-coordinate value as vertex Y which is 3. So the orthocenter is at (-3,3).</span>
