Here a right angled triangle given. We know that one angle of a right angled triangle is 90°.
As the sum of three angles of a triangle is 180°, so we can say the sum of other two angles of a right angled triangle is (180-90)° = 90°.
Here in the figure the other two angles given
and
. Sum of these two angles is 90°.
So we can write the equation as,

We have to remove the parenthesis now.

Now we will add the like terms. Here x and 2x are like terms. By adding them we will get,

To solve it for x, now we have to move 15 to the other side by subtracting it from both sides.



Now to get x, we have to move 3 to the other side, by dividing it to both sides.



We have got the required value of x.
The solution is x= 25.
23.8% of 164 is 39.032 so minus that off of 164 and you would've sold 124.968 cars and im guessing you should round so the dealership would've sold 125 cars.
Triangle A
hypotenuse: 3y + x
leg: y - x
Triangle B
hypotenuse: y + 5
leg: x + 5
Congruency => 3y + x = y + 5 and y - x = x + 5
Solve the system
3y + x = y + 5 -> 2y + x = 5
y - x = x + 5 -> y - 2x = 5
2y + x = 5
-2y + 4x = -10
5x = -5
x = -1
y = (5 -(-1)) / 2 = 6/2 = 3
Verify:
hypotenuses
3y + x = 9 - 1 = 8
y + 5 = 3 + 5 = 8
Legs:
y - x = 3 -(-1) = 3 + 1 = 4
x + 5 = -1 + 5 = 4.
Then both hypotenuses and both legs are congruent.
Answer: x = -1 and y = 3
Answer:
x = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x+8-6=-32
lets isolate the x variable:
-2x=-32-8+6
-2x = -34
x= -34/-2
x= 34/2
x= 17
