Answer:
6 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the unknown leg

Since we need to solve for a, we will manipulate the equation in terms of b and c → 
Here, b = 7 mm and c =
mm
Plugging these numbers into our equation gives us
→
=
= 6 mm
To complete the square you halve the coefficient of the x term and square it. Half of 14 is 7 and 7² is 49. So we add 49 and subtract 49, which means we are not changing the value of the quadratic. So we have x²+14x+49-49+2. This can be written: (x²+14x+49)-49+2, which is (x+7)²-47, which is answer a.
Answer:
∠ULE = 60°
Step-by-step explanation:
The exterior angle marked 109° is the sum of the remote interior angles marked 49° and x.
109° = 49° + ∠ULE
∠ULE = 109° -49°
∠ULE = 60°
There would be 3 and 1/2 pounds left.
2/3 x 2 = 4/6
5/6
5/6 + 4/6 = 6/6 (1) and 3/6 (1/2)
I’ll do an example problem, and I challenge you to do this on your own!
4x+6y=23
7y-8x=5
Solving for y in 4x+6y=23, we can separate the y by subtracting both sides by 4x (addition property of equality), resulting in 6y=23-4x. To make the y separate from everything else, we divide by 6, resulting in (23-4x)/6=y. To solve for x, we can do something similar - subtract 6y from both sides to get 23-6y=4x. Next, divide both sides by 4 to get (23-6y)/4=x.
Since we know that (23-4x)/6=y, we can plug that into 7y-8x=5, resulting in
7*(23-4x)/6-8x=5
= (161-28x)/6-8x
Multiplying both sides by 6, we get 161-28x-48x=30
= 161-76x
Subtracting 161 from both sides, we get -131=-76x. Next, we can divide both sides by -76 to separate the x and get x=131/76. Plugging that into 4x+6y=23, we get 4(131/76)+6y=23. Subtracting 4(131/76) from both sides, we get
6y=23-524/76. Lastly, we can divide both sides by 6 to get y=(23-524/76)/6
Good luck, and feel free to ask any questions!
