Answer:
x = 11 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of triangle = (base + base 2) * h *1/2
so (7 + x )* 7 * 1/2 = 63
63 x 2 = 126
126 / 7 = 18
18-7 = x
x = 11
Check
(7+11)* 7 * 1/2
18* 7 = 126
126 x 0.5 = 63
CORRECT!
(p.s., tell me if wrong :P)
The answer I think it would be -6 right?
Answer:
Part 1: It is not a valid conclusion to say that track and field sports are more popular than soccer based on the survey. The survey was taken at a track and field event so the people that were surveyed are probably biased.
Part 2: A better way of determining which sport is more popular is by counting how many people show up to each event and comparing the results.
Alright, the answer is B and I’ll tell you why. Look at the problem and see the order that they write the triangles in. ABC and XYZ, this is telling us that the angles in order are congruent to each other. Hope this helps :)
Answer:
10m x 15m
Step-by-step explanation:
You are given some information.
1. The area of the garden: A₁ = 150m²
2. The area of the path: A₂ = 186m²
3. The width of the path: 3m
If the garden has width w and length l, the area of the garden is:
(1) A₁ = l * w
The area of the path is given by:
(2) A₂ = 3l + 3l + 3w + 3w + 4*3*3 = 6l + 6w + 36
Multiplying (2) with l gives:
(3) A₂l = 6l² + 6lw + 36l
Replacing l*w in (3) with A₁ from (1):
(4) A₂l = 6l² + 6A₁ + 36l
Combining:
(5) 6l² + (36 - A₂)l +6A₁ = 0
Simplifying:
(6) l² - 25l + 150 = 0
This equation can be factored:
(7) (l - 10)*(l - 15) = 0
Solving for l we get 2 solutions:
l₁ = 10, l₂ = 15
Using (1) to find w:
w₁ = 15, w₂ = 10
The two solutions are equivalent. The garden has dimensions 10m and 15m.
