Lets factor first to see if we can make the problem simple
2(4x^2-25)
now we see that in parenthesis we have 2 square numbers
4x^2=(2x)^2
25=(5)^2
our expression is now
2(2x+5)(2x-5)
<span>In triangle WXZ,
Line WY is an altitude (as shown in the attached picture)
Now, it is given that:
</span><span>If ΔYWZ ~ ΔYXW
</span>∠WXY = ∠WZY
<span>
Then, we can also conclude
</span>∠WYX = ∠WYZ = 90°....(1) (because WY is the altitude)
Now, in any triangle, the sum of all the three angles is 180.
In triangle, WXY, ∠WYX = 90° (From 1)
Therefore, WXY + XWY = 90°
Similarly, in WZY.
Hence, we conclude that XWZ is a right angle.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We would liken the given scenario to distance speed and time relationship. The formula for determining average speed is
Total Distance/ total time
Since the distance between Earth and Mars is 108 million miles(108 × 10^6) the trip takes 245 days, then on average, the number of miles that the astronauts would travel each day would be
108 × 10^6/245 = 440816 miles per day
Writing in powers of 10, it becomes 4.4 × 10^5 miles per day
Rounding to the nearest whole number, it becomes 4 × 10^5 miles per day
Answer: $1,780
Step-by-step explanation:
Joy Wigens deposited 1/3 of the check of $2,670 that she received in her Citibank account.
The amount she deposited in her Citibank account was:
= 1/3 * 2,670
= $890
The amount she is left with after this deposit will therefore be:
= Check amount - deposit at Citibank
= 2,670 - 890
= $1,780
Answer:
x= -2 and y= 3
Step-by-step explanation:
since x = 2y -8, substitute this in the first equation
Thus, -3(2y-8) + 2y =12
-6y+24+2y=12
-6y+2y=12-24
-4y=-12
y=3
put the value of y in the second equation,
x=2y-8
x=2(3)-8
x=6-8
x=-2
So, x=-2. y=3
