Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
fx+3
X + y = 54
x - y = 18 Add the two equations together
---------------
2x = 72 Divide both sides by 2
x = 36
36 + y = 54 Subtract 36 from both sides
y = 18
the numbers are 36 & 18
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
These problems are based on triangle ratios. You cannot use the Pythagorean theorem to solve them.
The first triangle is a 45 45 90 degree triangle (I'm talking about the angles), and so, the ratio is 1:1:
, so I have to divide the hypotenuse by
to get the legs. The hypotenuse is 15
, so that divided by
is 15
. X is the same length as y because of the triangle ratio, so both x and y for the first triangle are 15
.
The second triangle is a 30 60 90 degree triangle, so the ratio is x:x
:2x. The short leg is 7
, so 7
* 2 is the hypotenuse, which is 14
. The long leg is 7
*
, which is 21. So, x for the second triangle is 14
, and y for the second triangle is 21.
Find value of determinant.
The determinant is a term that is inside a square root and part of the quadratic formula used for solving quadratic equations.
Let determinant be 'd'.
If d >0, Then there are 2 real solutions
If d = 0, Then there is only 1 real solutions
If d < 0, Then there are 0 real solutions but 2 imaginary solutions
d = b^2 - 4ac
For this problem, the coefficients are:
a = 1, b = -3, c = 8
d = (-3)^2 - 4(1)(8)
d = 9 -32 = -23
d is less than 0, therefore there are 0 real solutions and 2 imaginary solutions.
This is true because you cannot take square root of a negative number.
