<h3>Answer: 40 novels</h3>

================================================

Work Shown:

n = number of novels

(32 ebooks)/(n novels) = 4/5

32/n = 4/5

32*5 = n*4 ............ cross multiply

160 = 4n

4n = 160

n = 160/4 .............. dividing both sides by 4

n = 40

There are 40 novels.

Answer:

A is correct < C and < C" are congruent after both the translation and the dilation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of the triangle remains the same after the translation and the dilation. After the dilation the new triangle is bigger by a factor 2 but the shape ( and therefore the angles are equal. The 2 triangles are similar,

3x + ky = 8

sattari [20]

Answer:

(a): x is 3 and ky is -1

(b): k is -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let: 3x + ky = 8 be equation (a)

x - 2 ky = 5 be equation (b)

Then multiply equation (a) by 2:

→ 6x + 2ky = 16, let it be equation (c)

Then equation (c) + equation (b):

${ \sf{(6 + 1)x + (2 - 2)ky = (16 + 5)}} \\ { \sf{7x = 21}} \\ { \sf{x = 3}}$

Then ky :

${ \sf{2ky = 3 - 5}} \\ { \sf{ky = - 1}}$

${ \bf{y = \frac{1}{2} }} \\ { \sf{ky = - 1}} \\ { \sf{k = - 2}}$

How do I solve this using the Pythagorean theorem

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

First would need to convert the radical into a number.

And since if you have a perfect square of a radical it goes outside the square root sign, you would take the 3 and square it to make 9 and then take the 2 inside the square root sign and multiply so you have the square root of 18|

Since we have $\sqrt{18}$ as the Leg c we would need to square it, squaring a square root sign would just cause them to be cancelled out and you being left with 18, afterwards find the square of 3, which is 9

18-9=9

square root of 9 = 3
