It's a simultaneous equation:
Steps:
1.Number the equations..
a+b=77 -1
a-b=13 -2
2. Choose what variable you want to use. In this case I would use the "b". Since the signs in front of the "b's" are different, add the two equations together
a + b = 77
+ + +
a (-b) = 13
Which gives;
2a = 90
Then solve to find a:
2a=90
a= 90/2
a=45
3.Then plug the "a" value into any of the original equations to find the "b" value. I would use equation 1 since the all the variables are positive.
a + b = 77
(45) + b = 77
b=77-45
b=32
4.Solution
a=45
b=32
If this pertains to the Pythagorean theorem, then the answer that you would most likely to end up with is by utilizing the equation a² + b² = c² where a and b are the legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse refer to the longest side of the triangle while the other two would be the legs of the triangle.
When solving for the missing length, just substitute the values given to their respective places in the equation. If a length of a leg is missing, then substitute the other leg's value to either a or b, then substitute the length of the hypotenuse to c. Then solve. Solving for the hypotenuse's length would be a lot easier than the legs.
Answer:
Interest She'll make in a year is $30.10125
Step-by-step explanation:
Interest = PRT ÷ 100
Principal = $523.50
Rate = 5³/₄% = 5.75%
Time= 1year
Interest I = (523.50 × 5.75 × 1) ÷ 100 = $30.10125
Interest She'll make in a year is $30.10125
There are no triangles shown. What triangles?
