Mathematics
1 answer:
lions [1.4K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Solution (-2, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 17      (1)

5x + 6y = 32    (2)

Using elimination method

Multiply (-2) to the equation (1)

-4x - 6y = -34  

Now you have 2 new equations

-4x - 6y = -34

5x + 6y = 32

----------------------------Add

x = -2

Substitute x = -2 into 2x + 3y = 17

2(-2) + 3y = 17

- 4 + 3y = 17

3y = 21

 y = 7

Solution (-2, 7)

Can we conclude that these two triangles are congruent?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Yes,

Step-by-step explanation:

because two sides are shown equal to each other, a and b. Also two angles are equal to each other, x and y. Once you know two angles or two sides are equal so is the third side.

Another way is SAS (side angle side). There is side a, angle y, and side b. These are shown on both triangles.

Therefore, we can conclude these two triangles are congruent.

B2-4b+4=0 using quadratic forumla
Ivan

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term   

Factoring <span> b2-4b+4</span> 
The first term is, <span> <span>b2</span> </span> its coefficient is <span> 1 </span>.
The middle term is, <span> -4b </span> its coefficient is <span> -4 </span>.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> +4 </span>

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span>  1 • 4 = 4</span> 

Step-2 : Find two factors of  4  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is  <span> -4 </span>.
<span><span>     </span></span>

<span><span>-4   +   -1   =   -5</span><span>     -2   +   -2   =   -4   That's it</span></span>


Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -2  and  -2 
                     <span>b2 - 2b</span> - 2b - 4

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
                    b • (b-2)
              Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
                    2 • (b-2)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
                    (b-2)  •  (b-2)
             Which is the desired factorization

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Perimeter of polygon B = 80 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both polygons are similar, their corresponding sides and perimeters are proportional. Knowing this we can setup a proportion to find the perimeter of polygon B.

\frac{side-polygonA}{side-polygonB} =\frac{perimeter-polygonA}{perimeter-polygonB}

Let x be the perimeter of polygon B. We know from our problem that the side of polygon A is 24, the side of polygon B is 15, and the perimeter of polygon A is 128.

Let's replace those value sin our proportion and solve for x:

\frac{side-polygonA}{side-polygonB} =\frac{perimeter-polygonA}{perimeter-polygonB}

\frac{24}{15} =\frac{128}{x}

x=\frac{128*15}{24}

x=\frac{1920}{24}

x=80

We can conclude that the perimeter of polygon B is 80 units.

nikitadnepr [17]
Hi there! 

Lets dive into the problem, starting with the equation for volume; length x width x height.

If it's 8 x 12 inches, That means the height is 8 and the length is 12. The side, or width, would be x.

The equation should be 8 times 12 times x, or (8)(12)(x).
