First divide both sides by 3 and you’ll get
(y+12)=8 “y” will then equal -4 as -4+12=8=8 so therefore 18y= -72

In a video game, Bob can score 3 points (x) or 4 points (y) by hitting targets. To win the game he must score at least 20 points

MariettaO [177]

Well,

we know that we need to accumulate points from x and y to reach 20 points.

since x provide 3 and y provide 4 points, the formula would be :

3x + 4y = 20

or it can be written as :
y = (3x/4)+5

hope this helps

What is the value of x? Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

katen-ka-za [31]

So to start off:

The equation you will want to use for the hypotenuse is

A (squared) + B (squared) = C (squared)

So you will want to fill in the equation like so:

7(7) + 4(4) = C (squared)

So now that you have your information filled out, put it all together!

49 + 16 = 65

Now don't forget that the 65 is SQUARED!

You will want to use the SQUARE ROOT method to help with that!

So what you will want to do is think of the numbers that are PERFECT SQUARES.

A perfect square consist of

Here is the list of perfect squares 1-10:

1 x 1 = 1

2 x 2 = 4

3 x 3 = 9

4 x 4 = 16

5 x 5 = 25

6 x 6 = 36

7 x 7 = 49

8 x 8 = 64

9 x 9 = 81

So look closely at these perfect squares, Do you see where 65 will lie?

It will lie between 8 and 9.

So you will do the square root now.

√65

The answer will come out as:

<span>You will then round it to the nearest tenths place (one after the decimal)</span>

You will look at the two numbers behind the decimal which is

0.6.

As you know,(If you round the tenths place), if the number in the hundredths is 5 or HIGHER. It will round up the number in the tenths place to 1.

So as we know 6 is higher than 5 so your answer would be:

8.1

I hope this helped! :)

Lydia graphed ADEF at the coordinates D (-2,-1), E (-2, 2), and F (0,0). She thinks ADEF is a right triangle. Is Lydia's asserti

Setler79 [48]

The true statement is (c) No; the slopes of segment EF and segment DF are not opposite reciprocals.

<h3>Right triangles </h3>

Right triangles have a pair of perpendicular lines

Coordinates

The coordinates are given as:

D = (-2,-1)
E = (-2,2)
F = (0,0)

<h3>Slopes</h3>

Start by calculating the slopes of lines DF and EF using:

$m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}$

So, we have:

$m_{DF} = \frac{0 + 1}{0 +2}$

$m_{DF} = \frac{1}{2}$

Also, we have:

$m_{EF} = \frac{0 -2 }{0+2}$

$m_{EF} = \frac{-2 }{2}$

$m_{EF} = -1$

For the triangle to be a right triangle, then the calculated slopes must be opposite reciprocals.

i.e.

$m_1 = -\frac{1}{m_2}$

By comparison, the slopes of both lines are not opposite reciprocals.

Hence, the true statement is (c)
