A triangle has three angles, and their measures add up to 180 degrees.
An isosceles triangle has at least 2 congruent sides, and the angles opposite the congruent sides are congruent.
This triangle has one angle of 40 deg, and two angles that measure the same; call the measure of each base angle x.
x + x + 40 = 180
2x + 40 = 180
2x = 140
x = 70
The base angles measure 70 deg.
Answer:Let the number be x, then (x - 9)^2 = x - 3
x^2 - 18x + 81 = x - 3
x^2 - 19x + 84 = 0
(x - 12)(x - 7) = 0
x = 12 or 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 1
x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 2y = -3, then x = 2y - 3
2x + y = -1
substitute for x:
2(2y - 3) + y = -1
4y - 6 + y = -1
5y = 5
y = 1
x = 2 - 3 = -1
Answer:
- domain (-∞, ∞)
- range (-∞, 4]
- increasing (-∞, 0)
- decreasing (0, ∞)
- constant (only at x=0, not on any interval)
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph is of the equation y = -x^2 +4. It is a polynomial of even degree, so has a domain of all real numbers: (-∞, ∞).
The vertical extent of the graph includes y=4 and all numbers less than that:
range: (-∞, 4]
The graph is increasing to the left of its vertex at x=0, decreasing to the right.
increasing (-∞, 0); decreasing (0, ∞)
There is no interval on which the function is constant. It has a horizontal tangent at x=0, but a single point does not constitute an interval.
