Answer:
120 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = PS + SQ + PQ
50 = SQ + SQ + (SQ -1)
51 = 3SQ
17 = SQ
17 -1 = 16 = PQ
The midpoint of the base is one leg of the right triangle whose other leg is the height of this isosceles triangle. That height is ...
h = √(17² -(16/2)²) = √225 = 15
Then the area is ...
A = (1/2)bh = (1/2)(16)(15) = 120 . . . . . square units
If you have multiple equations with multiple variables, you can either do clever substitutions, or turn it into a matrix on which you can perform linear combinations or multiplications (Gauss elimination)
1 1 1 1
2 1 -1 8
1 -1 1 -5
(note how the above 3 rows represent the 3 equations, just got rid of the variables, plus sign and equals sign)
subtract row1 from row3, that eliminates x and z from row 3.
1 1 1 1
2 1 -1 8
0 -2 0 -6
divide row3 by -2, that will give y a factor of 1
1 1 1 1
2 1 -1 8
0 1 0 3
The last row now says y=3
7/20 = 35/100 = 0.35 is your answer
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
Equivalent expressions are expressions which are equal. This means they simplify to the same expression. Simplify the two expressions -1.3x - (-8.9x) = 7.6x and -1.3 + (-8.9X) = -10.2x.
Then simplify each option to determine if it is equal -1.3x - (-8.9x), -1.3 + (-8.9X) or neither:
−1.3x−8.9x = -10.2x. This is equivalent to -1.3 + (-8.9X) .
8.9x+(−1.3x) = 7.6x This is equivalent to -1.3x - (-8.9x) .
−8.9x+(−1.3x) = -10.2x This is equivalent to -1.3 + (-8.9X) .
8.9x−(−1.3x) = 10.2x Neither
−1.3x+8.9x = 7.6x This is equivalent to -1.3x - (-8.9x) .
−8.9x+1.3x = -7.6x Neither
Volume of first prism = 120 x 12 = 1,440 cubic feet
Volume of second prism = 84 x 6 x 16 = 8,064 cubic feet
The volume of the second prism is more than that of the first.
