Answer:

50.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve. Put the smaller triangle side over the larger triangle side.

x 46.2-14 (This is the length of the short side of the triangle)

--------- = -------------

72.6 46.2

Using cross products

46.2 *x = (46.2-14) *72.6

46.2 *x = (32.2) *72.6

46.2x =2337.72

Divide each side by 46.2

46.2/46.2 *x = 2337.72/46.2

x = 50.6

Describe the graph of the quadratic from the original y = x^2 .

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

a. Narrower

b. Shifts left

c. Opens up

d. Shifts up

Step-by-step explanation:

The original quadratic equation is y = x²

The given quadratic equation is y = 5·(x + 4)² + 7

The given quadratic equation is of the form, f(x) = a·(x - h)² + k

a. A quadratic equation is narrower than the standard form when the coefficient is larger than the coefficient in the original equation

The quadratic coefficient is 5 > 1 in the original, therefore, the quadratic equation is narrower

b. Given that the given quadratic equation has positive 'a', and 'b', and h = -4, therefore, the axis of symmetry shifts left

c. The quadratic coefficient is positive, (a = 5), therefore, the quadratic equation opens down

d. The value of 'k' gives the vertical shift, therefore, the given quadratic equation with k = 7, shifts up.

2x + 3y = 26 3x + 5y = 40 find x and y I will give brainliest

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

x = 10 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply first equation by 5 and 2nd equation by 3 then subtract equation 1 and 2, we get,

10x+15y= 130

9x+15y=120

( -) (-) (-)

x= 10

substituting the value of x in equation 1 we get

2x + 3y = 26

2*10 + 3y = 26

3y = 26-20

y =6/3

y= 2.i hope this helps
