The space diagonal will have length ...

... d = √(1² +4² +2²) = √(1 +16 +4) = √21

_____

This can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. A drawing can help. Find the length of any face diagonal, then use that length as the leg of a right triangle whose hypotenuse is the space diagonal and whose other leg is the edge length not used in the first calculation.

Step-by-step explanation:

...make y the subject y=-6/5x +2

...use the coefficient of x as the gradient,m=-6/5

...for a perpendicular line,find the negative reciprocal of the gradient,5/6

...sub into the eqn y= -1/m(x-a)+b

Joyce saved $70 on an item that was 75 % % off. What was the original price?
SashulF [63]

if Joyce saved $70

at 75% off, Joyce saved 25%

so, $70 is 25%

To find the total price which is 100%, multiply $70 by 4 ( because 25% x 4 = 100% )

so the original price is $70 x 4 = $280

What is the solution set of x2 + y2 = 26 and x − y = 6? A. {(5, -1), (-5, 1)} B. {(1, 5), (5, 1)} C. {(-1, 5), (1, -5)} D. {(5,
Rus_ich [418]
He two equations given are
x^2 + y^2 = 26
And
x - y = 6
x = y +6
Putting the value of x from the second equation to the first equation, we get
x^2 + y^2 = 26
(y + 6) ^2 + y^2 = 26
y^2 + 12y + 36 + y^2 = 26
2y^2 + 12y + 36 - 26 = 0
2y^2 + 12y + 10 = 0
y^2 + 6y + 5 = 0
y^2 + y + 5y + 5 = 0
y(y + 1) + 5 ( y + 1) = 0
(y + 1)(y + 5) = 0
Then 
y + 1 = 0
y = -1
so x - y = 6
     x + 1 = 6
x = 5
Or
y + 5 = 0
y = - 5
Again x = 1
So the solutions would be (-1, 5), (1 , -5). The correct option is option "C".
