Answer:

D. Triangle QRS is an isosceles triangle because QR = RS.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the length of each side of the triangle using the formula for calculating the distance between two points.

D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

For side RS

R(0,0) and S(5, -3.322)

RS = √(5-0)²+(-3.322-0)²

RS = √25+11.035684

RS = √36.035684

RS = 6.0029

For side RQ

R(0,0) and Q(-3, -5.2)

RQ = √(-3-0)²+(-5.2-0)²

RQ = √9+27.04

RQ = √36.04

RQ = 6.0033

For side QS

Q(-3,-5.2) and S(5, -3.322)

QS = √(5+3)²+(-3.322+5.2)²

QS = √64+3.526884

QS = √67.526884

QS = 8.22

From the calculation it can be seen that RS=QR

Since the two sides f the triangle are equal, hence the triangle is an isosceles triangle. An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has two of its sides equal

What is 9x + 18 = 6y - 3x for y ​
Nana76 [90]

Answer: 2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

9x+18=6y-3x Our goal is to isolate y.

Let's add 3x to both sides of the equation to cancel out that -3x on the right side.

12x+18=6y Because all of these integers are divisible by the gcf of 6, we can divide both sides of the equation by 6.

2x+3=y

Maggie's brother is three years younger than twice her age. The sum of their ages is 24 how old is maggie?
Vanyuwa [196]

The variable for Maggie will be M and 2x-3 be her younger brothers age (<u>Twice her age). </u>We then would turn this into <u>an algebraic problem</u>. (m+2x -3=24).

3x-3=24, we would add 3 to both sides (-3 and 24). 24 + 3 equals 27, we now have to divide -3x and 27 on both sides, which equals <u>9. (x=9)</u>

If $6500 is invested at a rate of 6% compounded continuously, find the balance in the account after 3 years
Alex787 [66]

\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Continuously Compounding Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=Pe^{rt}\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$6500\\ r=rate\to 6\%\to \frac{6}{100}\dotfill &0.06\\ t=years\dotfill &3 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=6500e^{0.06\cdot 3}\implies A=6500e^{0.18}\implies A\approx 7781.91
