Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate AC using Pythagoras' identity in ΔABC

AC² = 20² - 12² = 400 - 144 = 256, hence

AC = \sqrt{256} = 16

Now find AD² from ΔACD and ΔABD

ΔACD → AD² = 16² - (20 - x)² = 256 - 400 + 40x - x²

ΔABD → AD² = 12² - x² = 144 - x²

Equate both equations for AD², hence

256 - 400 + 40x - x² = 144 - x²

-144 + 40x - x² = 144 - x² ( add x² to both sides )

- 144 + 40x = 144 ( add 144 to both sides )

40x = 288 ( divide both sides by 40 )

x = 7.2 → C

Tricia got a 6% raise on her weekly salary. The raise was $30 per week. What was her original weekly salary in dollars per week?
serious [3.7K]

Answer:   Original salary = $500  

Step-by-step explanation:  Tricia got a 6% raise on her weekly salary. The

raise was $30 per week.  

Let x be the original salary  

x times the raise percentage = raise amount  

6%= 6/100=0.06, raise amount = 30    

Now we solve for x  

Divide by 0.06 on both sides    

Original salary = $500

Solve u^2 = -4, where u is a real number. Simplify your answer as much as possible.
alexdok [17]

Answer:

2i and -2i

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll change u to x to be easier to understand.

x^2 = -4

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-4)

sqrt(-4) = 2i, or -2i

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST! what are the values of a and b so the system of equations has infinitely many solutions?
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

a = 6

b = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

They both need to have the same slope.

The slope in the first equation is 6

That means that the second equation must have a = 6

They both need to have the same y intercept

The second equation has a y intercept of 3/4

Therefore b in the first equation, must be 3/4

3. Write equations of two lines, one with an x-intercept but no y-intercept and one with a y-intercept but
Vesnalui [34]
X = 50 (Is parallel to the y-axis so there is no intersection point)
Y= 40 (Is parallel to the x-axis so there is no intersection point)
Both no intercept with the other
