X represents the amount of children's tickets
y represents the amount of adult's tickets
8(x+y) = 54
Answer:
D) 54 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Centroid Theorem to solve this problem, which states that the centroid of a triangle is
of the distance from each of the triangle's vertices to the midpoint of the opposite side.
Therefore,
is
of the distance from
to
, since the latter is the midpoint of the side opposite to
. We know this because
belongs to
, so
must be
's midpoint due to the fact that by definition, the centroid of a triangle is the intersection of a triangle's three medians (segments which connect a vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the side opposite to it).
We can then write the following equation:

Substituting
into the equation gives us:

Solving for
, we get:

(Multiply both sides of the equation by
to get rid of
's coefficient)
(Simplify)
(Symmetric Property of Equality)
Therefore, the answer is D. Hope this helps!
2x + 3y = 40
+
-2x + 2y = 20
___________ Adding both equations
0x + 5y = 60
____________
5y = 60
y = 60/5 = 12
y = 12.
Since we have gotten y =12, and the only option with that is option D.
So we don't have to solve for x.

Answer:
x = -2 0r x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
from the question
X² – 4x – 12=0
solve by completing the square method
we have;
X² – 4x – 12=0
X² – 4x = 12
to make the left hand side a perfect square we add 4 to both sides.
X² -4x + 4 = 12 + 4
X² -4x + 4 = 16
from left hand side X² -4x + 4
= (x -2) × ( x -2)
it can be simply expressed as
( x-2)²
so since X² -4x + 4 has been simplified to be ( x-2)²
then,
( x-2)² = 16
x - 2 = √ 16
since square root has two values it can either be positive or negative
so we have
x = 2 + √16
or
x = 2 - √16
therefore
x = 2 + √16
x = 2 + 4
x = 6
0r
x = 2 - 4
x = -2
Do a linear equation just with the 6 and 1/2 because the 11 is negetive so your answers is -4 1/2
