Answer:

The general plan is to find BM and from that CM. You need 2 equations to do that.

Step One

Set up the two equations.

(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2 = (4*sqrt(2) ) ^ 2 = 32

BM^2 + CM^2 = 5^2 = 25

Step Two

Subtract the two equations.

(7 - BM)^2 + CM^2  = 32

BM^2 + CM^2         = 25

(7 - BM)^2 - BM^2 = 7               (3)

Step three

Expand the left side of the new equation labeled (3)

49 - 14BM + BM^2 - BM^2 = 7    

Step 4

Simplify And Solve

49 - 14BM = 7              Subtract 49 from both sides.

-49 - 14BM = 7 - 49

- 14BM = - 42              Divide by - 14

BM = -42 / - 14

BM = 3

Step  Five

Find CM

CM^2 + BM^2 = 5^2

CM^2 + 3^2 = 5^2        Subtract 3^2 from both sides.

CM^2 = 25 - 9            

CM^2 = 16                     Take the square root of both sides.        

sqrt(CM^2) = sqrt(16)

CM = 4    < Answer

Select the two values of x that are roots of this equation x^2-5x+2=0
Nataly [62]

The roots of the equation is x = 4.56 OR x = 0.44

<h3>Quadratic equation</h3>

From the question, we are to determine the roots of the given equation

The given equation is

x² -5x +2 = 0

Using the formula method,

x =\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}

In the given equation,

a = 1, b = -5, c = 2

Putting the values into the formula,

x =\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^{2}-4(1)(2) } }{2(1)}

x =\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25-8} }{2}

x =\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{17} }{2}

x =\frac{5 + \sqrt{17} }{2} OR x =\frac{5 - \sqrt{17} }{2}

x =\frac{5 + 4.12}{2} OR x =\frac{5 - 4.12}{2}

x =\frac{9.12}{2} OR x =\frac{0.88}{2}

x = 4.56 OR x = 0.44

Hence, the roots of the equation is x = 4.56 OR x = 0.44

Algebra 1 Assignment! Help needed as soon as possible! thanks so much to whoever helps! have a nice day
mezya [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

go-kart = Gk

Head sock = Hs   (what?  a sock in the head?  :/ what ?? )

Laser tag = Lt

Eq 1 ) Gk + Hs + Lt = 33

Eq 2) 2Gk + Hs + 0Lt = 48

Eq 3) 2Gk + Hs + 2Lt =64

This is a system of equations  w/ 3 unknowns and 3 equations so we can solve this. :)

subtract Eq 2 from Eq 3

  2Gk +Hs +2Lt =64

-(2Gk +Hs +0Lt =48)

0Gk + 0 Hs +2Lt = 16

Lt =8    

so one Laser tag game is 8 dollars.. good... now use  8 in Eq. 1 and 3 for Lt price

Eq 1a) Gk + Hs +8 =33    simplify

Eq 1b) Gk + Hs = 25

Eq 3a) 2Gk +Hs +2(8) = 64  simplify

Eq3b) 2Gk + Hs =48

subtract Eq 1b from Eq 3b

2Gk + Hs =48

-(Gk + Hs =25)

Gk = 23

so one Gk ride costs 23 dollars and plug this into Eq 1

23 + Hs + 8 = 33

Hs = 2

Question 1  )  Gk = 23  Hs = 2 Lt = 8

solve new systems, same as above but  with the new prices

Eq 1r ) Gk + Hs + Lt = 18

Eq 2r) 2Gk + Hs + 0Lt = 29

Eq 3r) 2Gk + Hs + 2Lt =35

subtracting 2r from 3r we get 2Lt = 6   then Lt =3  for the new price

plug that into 1r and 3r

Eq 1br) Gk + Hs = 15

Eq 3br) 2Gk +Hs = 29

subtract 1br from 3br

 Gk = 14

plug this into 1r

Hs =1

Question 2 ) Gk=14 Hs =1 Lt=3

Question 3)  wants 2 Hs and 2 Lt

w/o coupon the activities cost 2 ( 2+8)  = 20 dollars

but there is no coupon for 2 of each game

so  no, don't buy a coupon.. just play at full price

Hustler side note.. buy two of the 18 coupons and sell the 2 Gk rides to your   teacher for 15 dollars each, still a good deal to guarantee a good grade on your Home Work ..  (30 total)...... and get your games for just 6 dollars... excellent deal for you   :)

Match each system of linear equations with the correct number of solutions
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Hey there!

The first equation has no solutions, as it is parallel lines.

The second equation has infinitely many solutions, as it is basically the same line, and the two lines intersect at infinite points.

The third equation is just one solution.

Let me know if this helps :)
