16. There are 3 right triangles, 3 Pythagorean theorem equations
x²+b²= 16²
12²+a² = x²
a²+4² = b²
combine equations using substitution to get in terms of only x
substitute b² for (a² +x²) in first equation
x²+a²+4²=16²
substitute a² for (x² - 12²)
x²+x²-12²+4² = 16²
solve for x
2x² - 144 + 16 = 256
2x² = 256 + 144 - 16
2x² = 384
x² = 384/2
x² = 192
x = 13.85
rounded to nearest tenth, x = 13.9
Answer:
10/72 or 0.14
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 72 marbles in total and 10 of them are green. So, it is 10/72 or 1.388 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 0.14.
The answer is -4,7
The denominator can't equal zero. Factor the denominator:
x^2 - 3x - 28=
(X - 7)(x + 4); next set each set of parentheses equal to 0;
x - 7 = 0; so x=7 is one value
x + 4 = 0; so x=-4 is the other
Remember, x = 7 and x= -4 make the denominator zero, which is a "restriction" because you can't divide by zero.
Answer:
the coordinates would be (3,6)
