<span>The slope of the line is equal to (y - 7) / (x - 4)
Then we can set up this equation:
(y - 7) / (x - 4) = 3
y - 7 = 3 * (x - 4)
y - 7 = 3x - 12
y = 3x - 5
This is the equation of the line.</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
the distance of a vertex on the 2 outgoing sides to the touching points with the inscribed circle is the same for both sides.
and that applies to all 3 vertexes.
so, we know for the top left vertex the distance to both touching points is 4.
that means the distance to the touching points from the bottom left vertex is 7-4 = 3.
and that means that the distance to the touching points from the bottom right vertex is 16-3 = 13.
so, x = 13
it is the distance to one of the touching points for the bottom right vertex.
and the perimeter of the triangle is therefore
7 + 16 + (13 + 4) = 40
Answer:
B = 4
T = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, figure out the equation.
We know that bicycles have 2 wheels, that there are 3 on a tricycle, and there are a total of 14 wheels and a total of 6 bicycles and tricycles.
Let b stand for bicycles and t stand for tricycles:
14 = 2b + 3t
6 = b + t
We can figure out the amount of either by rearranging the second equation to isolate one variable. I will solve it in two ways
In the first way, I will solve for b
(-t) 6 = b + t (-t)
6 - t = b
Plug this into the first equation and solve for remaining variable
14 = 2(6 - t) +3t
14 = 12 - 2t + 3t
14 = 12 +t
-12 -12
2 = t
6 - 2 = b
b = 4
The second way was to solve for t first
(-b) 6 = b + t (-b)
6 - b = t
14 = 2b + 3(6 - b)
14 = 2b + 18 - 3b
(-18) 14 = 18 -b (-18)
-4/-1 = -b/-1
b = 4
6 - 4 = t
t = 2
It doesn't matter which way you go, they both give you the exact same answer.
Sooo, recap!
1) write equations
2) switch the easier of the two to isolate one variable
3) substitute to find other variable (x2)
4) Find answers! =D
Hope this helps!
36 + x would be your answer. When something is 'increased', you are adding to it. Such as saying 47 increased by -5x is the same as 47 + (-5x).
If this wasn't the answer you were looking for, let me know. For now, I hope this helped:)
