Answer:
64
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the area of both triangles inside the bigger triangle and add them together.
Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing length of the leg in the smallest triangle:
a² + b² = c²
8² + b² = 10²
64 + b² = 100
36 = b²
6 = b
Calculate the area of the smaller triangle:
1/2(<em>b</em>x<em>h</em>)
1/2(6 x 8)
1/2(48)
24
Calculate the area of the bigger triangle:
<em>We know that the longer leg is 10 units because we were able to subtract the length of the smaller triangle's leg from 16.</em>
1/2(<em>b</em>x<em>h</em>)
1/2(10 x 8)
1/2(80)
40
Add both areas to find the area of the largest triangle:
40 + 24 = 64
Answer:
23x = -115
Step-by-step explanation:
In the substitution method, you must solve for 1 variable in 1 equation to replace it in the other equation. For the system:
2x - 7y = 4
3x + y = -17
Solving for y in the second equation:
y = -17 - 3x
Replacing y in the first equation:
2x - 7(-17 - 3x) = 4
2x + 119 + 21x = 4
23x = -115
This is the new equation after use the substitution method.
The algebra tiles show two equal factors. They are (x + 4).
Then, the perfect square is the product of the two equal factors, (x + 4) * (x +4).
That is (x + 4)^2.
Then develop that perfect square to find the constant term.
(x + 4)^2 = x^2 + 8x + 16.
That means that the constant term needed to complete the trinomial is 16.
Answer: 16
Answer:
x = 35
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
5 (x + 20) = 7 x + 30
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
5 x + 100 = 7 x + 30
Subtract 7 x from both sides:
(5 x - 7 x) + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30
5 x - 7 x = -2 x:
-2 x + 100 = (7 x - 7 x) + 30
7 x - 7 x = 0:
100 - 2 x = 30
Subtract 100 from both sides:
(100 - 100) - 2 x = 30 - 100
100 - 100 = 0:
-2 x = 30 - 100
30 - 100 = -70:
-2 x = -70
Divide both sides of -2 x = -70 by -2:
(-2 x)/(-2) = (-70)/(-2)
(-2)/(-2) = 1:
x = (-70)/(-2)
The gcd of -70 and -2 is -2, so (-70)/(-2) = (-2×35)/(-2×1) = (-2)/(-2)×35 = 35:
Answer: x = 35
4 pound of oats twice a day= 8 pounds of oats each day per horse. He has 4 horses so 4 horses times 8 pounds of oats is 32. You multiply 32 pounds times the three days he has to feed which is 96 pounds.
