1st side = x
2nd side = y
3rd side = z

x = y -5  or y = x + 5
z = x +3 or x = z -3

x + y + z = 17

x + (x +5) + (x +3) = 17

3x = 9

x = 3
y = 8
z = 6

The base of a solid oblique pyramid is an equilateral triangle with a base edge length of 18 inches What is the height of the tr
ExtremeBDS [4]
The height of the triangular base of the pyramid is calculated through the equation,
                                        h = (cos x)(18 in)
where h is height and x is half of the angle of the triangle. Since the triangle is equilateral, the value of  x is 30°. Substituting,
                                        h = (cos 30°)(18 in)
                                        h = 15.59 in
Thus, the height of the base is approximately 15.59 inches.

. Find two consecutive odd integers whose product is 99. (Note: There are two different pairs of consecutive odd
Tom [10]

Answer:

9 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:Let the 2 consecutive odd integers be n and n+2.

n(n + 2) = 99

Solve for n.

n2 + 2n - 99 = 0

(n + 11)(n - 9) = 0 ⇒

Two solutions:

n = -11

n + 2 = -9

and

n = 9

n + 2 = 11

Please help me with #5
nlexa [21]
The answer is C, 25% increase. To find the increase, subtract starting value (780) from the final value (975). It equals out to be 195. Divide 195 by the starting value which turns out to be 0.25. Then, multiply 0.25 by 100 which equals out to be 25.

yuradex [85]

Answer:

B (1 , 3) , D (1 , -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ A (-3 , 3) , C (-3 , -2)

∵ They have the same x-coordinate

∴ AC is a vertical segment its length = 3 - -2 = 5

∵ The area of the rectangle = 20

∴ The width of it = 20 ÷ 5 = 4

∴ x-coordinate of B: -3 + 4 = 1

∴ y-coordinate of B : 3 ⇒ AB horizontal segment

∴ B (1 , 3)

∵ x-coordinate of BD is 1 ⇒ BD is vertical segment

∵ y-coordinate = 3 - 5 = -2

∴ D (1 , -2)
