Frank solved an equation and got the result x = x. Sarah solved the same equation and got 12 = 12. Frank says that one of them i

s incorrect because you cannot get different results for the same equation. What would you say to Frank? If both results are indeed correct, explain how this happened.

Frank is incorrect. 
They could have solved the same equations and got what seems like different answers, however both the answers of x = x, and 12 = 12 mean that the equation has an infinite amount of solutions, or that the answer is all real numbers.

This could have happened because Sarah and Frank may have approached the same equation in different ways, meaning that one simplified or solved the equation with a different, but still correct, strategy.

Hope this helps! :)

Julia and Cody are working together on solving math problems. For every one problem that Julia
slega [8]

Answer:

Cody has solved (12 × 12) = 144 problems.

Step-by-step explanation:

For every one problem that Julia completes, Cody completes twelve.

If Julia Completes x problems and Cody completes y problems, then we can write y = 12x ........ (1)

Now, given that the number of problems solved by Cody is one hundred twenty more than two times the number of problems solved by Julia.

Hence, 2x + 120 = y ......... (2)

Now, from equations (1) and (2) we get,  

2x + 120 = 12x

⇒ 10x = 120

⇒ x = 12

Therefore, Cody has solved (12 × 12) = 144 problems. (Answer)

Given: △ABC, m∠A=60° m∠C=45°, AB=8 Find: Perimeter of △ABC, Area of △ABC
jarptica [38.1K]

We are given

△ABC, m∠A=60° m∠C=45°, AB=8

Firstly, we will find all angles and sides

Calculation of angle B:

we know that sum of all angles is 180

m∠A+ m∠B+m∠C=180

we can plug values

60°+ m∠B+45°=180

m∠B=75°

Calculation of BC:

we can use law of sines

\frac{AB}{sin(C)}=\frac{BC}{sin(A)}

now, we can plug values

\frac{8}{sin(45)}=\frac{BC}{sin(60)}

BC=\frac{8}{sin(45)} \times sin(60)

BC=9.798

Calculation of AC:

\frac{AB}{sin(C)}=\frac{AC}{sin(B)}

now, we can plug values

\frac{8}{sin(45)}=\frac{AC}{sin(75)}

AC=\frac{8}{sin(45)} \times sin(75)

AC=10.928

Perimeter:

p=AB+BC+AC

we can plug values

p=10.928+8+9.798

p=28.726

Area:

we can use formula

A=\frac{1}{2}AB \times AC \times sin(A)

now, we can plug values

A=\frac{1}{2}8 \times 10.928 \times sin(60)

A=37.85570...............Answer
