Answer:

x = -4, y = -13

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 5 = 5x + 7

3x = -12

x = -4

Y = 2(-4)-5 = -13

Complete the work to find the dimensions of the rectangle. x(x – 3) = 10 x2 – 3x = 10 x2 – 3x – 10 = 10 – 10 (x + 2)(x – 5) = 0
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Length =5

Width = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length =x

Width = x -3

Area = 10

x(x-3) =10

See comment for missing part of the question

Required

Complete the expression to determine the dimension of a rectangle

We have:

x(x-3) =10

Open bracket

x^2 -3x = 10

Equate to 0

x^2 -3x - 10 =0

Expand

x^2 + 2x - 5x - 10 = 0

Factorize

x(x + 2) - 5(x + 2) = 0

Factor out x + 2

(x  - 5)(x + 2) = 0

Solve for x

x - 5 = 0 or x + 2 = 0

x = 5 or x = -2

The value of x cannot be negative

So:

x  = 5

Recall that:

Length = x

Width = x - 3

So:

Length =5

Width = 2 ---- i.e. 5 - 3

How would I find a? What formula would I use?
xenn [34]

Answer:

  You can use either of the following to find "a":

  • Pythagorean theorem
  • Law of Cosines

Step-by-step explanation:

It looks like you have an isosceles trapezoid with one base 12.6 ft and a height of 15 ft.

I find it reasonably convenient to find the length of x using the sine of the 70° angle:

  x = (15 ft)/sin(70°)

  x ≈ 15.96 ft

That is not what you asked, but this value is sufficiently different from what is marked on your diagram, that I thought it might be helpful.

__

Consider the diagram below. The relation between DE and AE can be written as ...

  DE/AE = tan(70°)

  AE = DE/tan(70°) = DE·tan(20°)

  AE = 15·tan(20°) ≈ 5.459554

Then the length EC is ...

  EC = AC - AE

  EC = 6.3 - DE·tan(20°) ≈ 0.840446

Now, we can find DC using the Pythagorean theorem:

  DC² = DE² + EC²

  DC = √(15² +0.840446²) ≈ 15.023527

  a ≈ 15.02 ft

_____

You can also make use of the Law of Cosines and the lengths x=AD and AC to find "a". (Do not round intermediate values from calculations.)

  DC² = AD² + AC² - 2·AD·AC·cos(A)

  a² = x² +6.3² -2·6.3x·cos(70°) ≈ 225.70635

  a = √225.70635 ≈ 15.0235 . . . feet

Answer:

Part A: impossible

Part B: Either equal or blue

Part C: 9 green and 2 blue were added

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

The only colors included in this problem are red, blue, and green. There is no black colored pencil, therefore, it is impossible to get one from the box.

Part B:

I'm not sure what you're asking in this question, but I will give you the two choices. If it is before the additional 11 colored pencils are added to the box, the chance of drawing a red and the chance of drawing a blue will be equal, because both of them have 11 of each color. If it is after the additional 11 colored pencils are added to the box, then the chance of drawing a blue colored pencil will be greater than the chance of drawing a red colored pencil. After the 11 colored pencils are added, there are 13 blue and 11 red. The blue is greater.

Part C:

The least number of green colored pencils added has to be 9, because the chance of drawing a green pencil is now greater than the chance of drawing a red pencil. If we add 8 more green pencils, the likelihood would be the same. Therefore, the number of green colored pencils added has to be at least 9. If we have the last 2 colored pencils be blue, then there would be 11 red, 13 blue, and 12 green. This fits all the conditions, therefore, adding 9 green colored pencils and 2 blue colored pencils is the answer.

I hope this helps and please mark me as brainliest!
