$Simplifying
-1x + -1 = 221 + 2x

Reorder the terms:
-1 + -1x = 221 + 2x

Solving
-1 + -1x = 221 + 2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-2x' to each side of the equation.
-1 + -1x + -2x = 221 + 2x + -2x

Combine like terms: -1x + -2x = -3x
-1 + -3x = 221 + 2x + -2x$
$Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0
-1 + -3x = 221 + 0
-1 + -3x = 221

Add '1' to each side of the equation.
-1 + 1 + -3x = 221 + 1

Combine like terms: -1 + 1 = 0
0 + -3x = 221 + 1
-3x = 221 + 1

Combine like terms: 221 + 1 = 222
-3x = 222

Divide each side by '-3'.
x = -74

Simplifying
x = -74$

In isosceles right triangle ABC, point is on hypotenuse \overline{BC} such that \overline{AD} is an altitude of \triangle ABC an

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Area of triangle is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an isosceles right triangle

Isosceles triangle is the triangle having two sides equal.

Figure is shown in attachment

By Pythagoras theorem

$BC^2=AC^2+AB^2$

AD is altitude which divides the triangle into two parts

DC=5 implies BC =10 since D equally divides BC

Let AC=a implies AB=a being Isosceles

On substituting the values in the Pythagoras theorem:

$10^2=a^2+a^2$

$100=2a^2$

$\Rightarrow a^2=50$

$\Rightarrow a=\pm5\sqrt{2}$

WE can find area of right triangle by considering height AB and AD

Area of triangle ABC is:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot BC\cdot AD$ (1)

$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}\cdot 10\cdot AD$

And other method of area of triangle is:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot AB\cdot BC$ (2)

Equating (1) and (2) we get:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot 10\cdot AD=\frac{1}{2}\cdot a\cdot a$

$\Rightarrow AD=\frac{a^2}{10}$

$\Rightarrow AD=\frac{50}{10}=5$

Using area of triangle is: $\frac{1}{2}\cdot BC\cdot AD$

Now, the area of triangle ABC= $\frac{1}{2}\cdot 5\cdot 10$

$\Rightarrow 25$

Leonard is studying the relationship between the fuel efficiency in miles per gallon (mpg), y, and the speed in miles per hour (

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

D. There is a nonlinear relationship between the speed and fuel efficiency.

Step-by-step explanation:

A desirable residual plot should show a horizontal band with points randomly distributed about the horizontal axis.

Leonard's plot is definitely nonlinear.

The residuals show a good fit to a parabola.

This suggests that the relation between speed and fuel efficiency may be parabolic.
