12+8y you have to do like terms and the distributive property of 2(y+1)
For all triangles, the angle sum is 180°, therfore we can add all the angles up to solve x
54 + 55 + x + 74 =180
183 + x =180
X = 180 - 183
X = - 3 °
Don't worry, negative result is normal and possible.
Given:
- Bought n items of product A at 1/5 rs each
- bought n items of product B at 1/4 rs each
He mixed the two items and sold each at 2/9 rs each.
He lost 3 rs in the above batch of articles.
Solution:
revenue = 2n* (2/9) rs = 4n/9 rs
cost = n/5+n/4 rs = n(1/5+1/4)
Profit = revenue-cost = 4n/9-n(1/5+1/4) = -3 rs
Solve for n
4n/9-n(1/5+1/4) = -3
factor out n
n(4/9-1/5-1/4)=-3
n(80-36-45)/180=-3
-n/180=-3
n=3*180=540
Total number of products bought
= n+n = 540+540 = 1080
in this problem what you are really looking for is which of these sets is a pathagorean triple. That means it will solve the pathagorean theorem. (a sqaured + b squared = c squared) c is always going to be the largest number or the hypotenuse. if you plug all the number sets into the theorem, only one works and that is 7, 24, 25 which is your answer.
