Answer:
Jiri is 34 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing you want to do is subtract 6 from 74, since Pamela is 6 years older than jiri and their ages summarized is 74, this spans the age difference.
Next you want to divide the answer you got earlier (68, from subtracting 6 from 74) and divide it by two since there are two people. The answer is 34, Jiri is 34 years old and Pamela is 40 years old.
Add up all of the side lengths and you get 148.4 as the perimeter.
subtract that from 150 and you're left with 1.6 m left of tape
Look at the picture.
We have the equation (1) 12x + 4y = 40.
We know, the sum of the acute angles in a right triangle is 90°.
Therefore we have the equation (2) (12x + 4y) + (17x - y) = 90
Substitute (1) to (2):
40 + 17x - y = 90 <em>subtract 40 from both sides</em>
17x - y = 50 (3)
We have the system of equations:
Substitute the value of x to (3)
Answer: x = 3 and y = 1.
You seem to already see that you need to multiple x with the other numbers. When you start off solving it you'd get.. x-6=x2(to the power of) + 6x . Then just move the equation over from the left to the right. and solve, I've got -6+x2(power of 2)+7x, that's it
30+4X=90 (right angle is 90°)
X=15
4 (15)= 60
30+60= 90 so you know it's right
