If 2a-b:2a+b=1:2find the value of a:b​

Mathematics
1 answer:
weqwewe [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

2a - b : 2a + b = 1 : 2

2a - b = 1

-                         Elimination

2a + b = 2

-b - (b) = -1

-2b = -1

b = 0.5

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2a + b = 2           Substitution

2a + 0.5 = 2

2a = 1.5

a = 0.75

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

a:b

0.75 : 0.5

or

3/4 : 1/2

Hope this helps!!!

Well...it says the sum of the angles measure 360...so lets set them equal to 360

40 + x - 10 + 1/3x + x - 20 = 360...combine like terms
2 1/3x + 10 = 360
7/3x = 360 - 10
7/3x = 350
x = 350/(7/3)
x = 350 * 3/7
x = 1050/7
x = 150 <=====

Http://prntscr.com/lkz30r<br> What is the value of x?<br> 28<br> 20<br> 36<br> 17
ivolga24 [154]

This is a question that can be solved with Pythagorean Theorem since it is a right triangle. The longest side, 29, is the hypotenuse and the sides 21 and x are the legs. So, the Pythagorean Theorem states,

c^{2}= a^{2}+ b^{2}

Where,

c is the Hypotenuse, a and b are the legs. Putting the respective values gives us,

(29)^{2}= (21)^{2} +x^{2} \\841=441+x^{2} \\400=x^{2} \\20=x

So, 20 is the side length of x.

What is the additive inverse of 18xy?
Cloud [144]
An additive inverse is the value you can add to a given value such that the sum is "0".. 

Your answer is choice A
18xy + (-18xy) = 0   Since these are like terms.. the key here is understanding that like terms must have the same exact variables raised to the exact same powers.  We can add like terms.  We cannot add unlike terms.
