Answer:
none
Step-by-step explanation:
We have three sides
Adding the two smallest sides together must be bigger than the third side
3.1+5.2 > 9.8
8.3> 9.8
This is false, so we cannot make a triangle
Answer:
x=2 and XM=11
Step-by-step explanation:
because M is the midpoint of the line, you know that both XM and ZM are equal and you know an expression for the lengths of both of these.
set these expressions equal and solve:
4x+3=3x+5 so by subtracting the 3x from the right side, moving it over to the left and subtracting 3 from the left side to move it over to the right, you get:
x=2
then to find XM, plug in this value of x to get XM=11
4(2)+3=11
mechanic #1's rate = x
mechanic #2's rate = y
* Their rate is dollars per hour ($/hr)
mechanic #1 worked for 20 hours (hr × $/hr = $)
20x = money earned by mech#1
and mechanic #2 worked for 5 hours
5y = money earned by mech#2
together they charged a total of $1150. So the amount of money earned by both mechanics.
20x + 5y = 1150
the sum of the two rates was $95 per hour.
x + y = 95
which means
x = 95 - y
plug (95 - y) in for "x" in the other equation to get everything in terms of one variable.
20(95 - y) + 5y = 1150
solve for y
1900 - 20y + 5y = 1150
1900 - 15y = 1150
-15y = 1150 - 1900
-15y = -750
y = -750/-15
y = 50 $/hr
Now use this to solve for x
x + y = 95
x + 50 = 95
x = 95 - 50
x = 45 $/hr
mech#1 charged 45$/hr
mech #2 charged 50$/hr
