Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

use pytagor-rule :

triangle ABC : (x+15)² =17²+y²....(*)

triangle BDC : y² = x²+8²....(**)

by (**) put the value of y² in (*) :

(x+15)² = 17²+x²+8²

x²+30x+15² = 17²+x²+18²

30x +225 = 289+64

30x = 128

x= 128/30

x= 64/15

put this value in (**) calculate y²  ......continu

. Kite QRST has a short diagonal of QS and a long diagonal of RT. The diagonals intersect at point P. Side QR = 17m, diagonal QS
trapecia [35]

Answer:

495 meter²

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given kite QRST,

PQ = PS = 15 meter

QR = 17 meter

We have to find the area of the kite.

Since kite is in the form of a rhombus.

and rhombus is = \frac{1}{2}  (Diagonal QS) × (Diagonal RT)

In Δ QRP,

17² = 15² + RP²

\sqrt{17^{2}-15^{2}} = RP

RP=\sqrt{289-225}

= √64 = 8 meters.

So RT = RP + PT = 8 + 25 = 33 meter.

Now area of kite = \frac{1}{2} (30) (33) = 495 meter²

Find the 9th term of the geometric sequence 2, -10 50 -250
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

781250

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find the common ratio

-10 /2 = -5

50 / -10 = -5

The common ratio is -5

an = a (r) ^ (n-1)

a9 = 2 ( -5) ^(9-1)

     = 2 (-5)^8

      =781250

stepladder [879]

Answer:

Purchase Price = $150 and Total Price = $162

Step-by-step explanation:

Purchase price = Tax Amount / Tax Percentage (as decimal)

Purchase Price = $12 / .08

Purchase Price = $150

Total Price = Purchase Price + Tax

Total Price = 150 + 12 = $162

Jennifer sold 57 pieces of art if she sold twice as many paintings as sculptures how many painting did she sell??
Westkost [7]

so we know she has sculptures and paintings, if she sold twice as many paintings as sculptures, that means that for every 2 paintings, she sold 1 sculpture, so the paintings and sculptures are on a 2:1 ratio.

we know she sold a total of 57, so we'll need to split 57 in a 2:1 ratio, we'll simply divide the whole amount of 57 by (2+1) and distribute accordingly.

\bf \cfrac{paintings}{sculptures}\qquad 2:1\qquad \cfrac{2}{1}\qquad \qquad \cfrac{2\cdot \frac{57}{2+1}}{1\cdot \frac{57}{2+1}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 19}{1\cdot 19}\implies \cfrac{\boxed{38}}{19}
