Step-by-step explanation:

$\underline{ \underline{ \text{Given}}} :$

Length of MN ( Base ) = 8
Length of NL ( Hypotenuse ) = 10

$\underline{ \underline{ \text{To \: find}}} :$

Length of LM ( Perpendicular )

$\underline{ \underline{ \text{Using \: pythagoras \: theorem}}} :$

$\boxed{ \sf{ {Hypotenuse}^{2} = {Perpendicular}^{2} + {Base}^{2} }}$

⤑ $\sf{ Perpendicular = \sqrt{ {(Hypotenuse)}^{2} - {(Base)}^{2} } }$

⤑ $\sf{ \sqrt{ {(10)}^{2} - {(8)}^{2} } }$

⤑ $\sf{ \sqrt{100 - 64}}$

⤑ $\sf{ \sqrt{36}}$

⤑ $\boxed{ \sf{6\: units}}$

$\pink{ \boxed{ \boxed{ \tt{Our \: final \: answer : \boxed{ \underline { \tt{6 \: units}}}}}}}$

Solve 3x² + 4x = 2. (2 points)

uysha [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As it is a second order equation, it means that it has two possible answers and they are $x_1$ and $x_2$ .

The famous quadratic formula for solving any second order equation is the following:

$x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{b^2 - 4 ac}}{2a}\\x_{2}=\frac{-b - \sqrt{b^2 - 4 ac}}{2a}$

Where a is the coefficient of $x^2$ , b is the coefficient of x, and c is the free term. In other words,

$a = 3\\b=4\\c=-2$

as the equation should be in the following form:

$a x^2 + bx+c = 0$

Therefore the possible answer should be the following,

$\frac{-4 + \sqrt{4^2 - 4*3*(-2)}}{2*3}=\frac{-4 +\sqrt{16 + 24}}{6} =\frac{-4 + \sqrt{40}}{6}=\\ \frac{-4 + \sqrt{4*10}}{6} = \frac{-4 + 2\sqrt{10}}{6}$ $\frac{2*(-2 + \sqrt{10})}{2*3} = \frac{-2 + \sqrt{10}}{3}$

by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2, we can deduce the following,

Answer:

<h2>3. Infinitely many</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}ax+by=c\\dx+ey=f\end{array}\right\\\\(1)\\\text{if}\ a=d,\ b=e,\ c=f,\ \text{then the system of equations has infinitely many solutions}\\Example:\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2x-3y=5\\2x-3y=5\end{array}\right\\(2)\\\text{if}\ a=d,\ b=e,\ c\neq f,\ \text{then the system of equations has no solution}\\Example:\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2x-3y=5\\2x-3y=-5\end{array}\right$

$(3)\\\text{if}\ a\neq d\ \text{or}\ b\neq e,\ \text{then the system of equations has infinitely many solutions}\\Example:\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x-3y=5\\2x-3y=5\end{array}\right$

$\text{We have:}\\\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2x=-10y+6&\text{add 10y to both sides}\\x+5y=3\end{array}\right\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}2x+10y=6&\text{divide both sides by 2}\\x+5y=3\end{array}\right\\\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x+5y=3\\x+5y=3\end{array}\right$

The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is 20° less than the sum of the base angles. Which system of equations can be used to

WINSTONCH [101]

The answer to the above question can be explained as under -

We know that, the sum of angles of triangle is 180°.

So, vertex angle plus base angles are equal are equal to 180°.

Let the vertex angle be represented by "v" and base angles be represented by "b".

Thus, v + b + b = 180°

So, v + 2b = 180°

Next, the question says, the vertex angle is 20° less than the sum of base angles.

Thus, 2b - 20° = v

Thus, we can conclude that the correct option is A) v + 2b = 180°, 2b - 20° = v
