Let's call the three numbers x, y, and z.
The numbers are 3, 12, and 5.
x + y + z = 20
y = 4x
x + z = 8
We can rewrite the first equation because y is 4x, so
x + 4x + z = 20
5x + z = 20
And now we can use simultaneous equation rules to solve
5x + z = 20
x + z = 8
5x + z = 20
5x + 5z = 40
(subtract)
-4z + -20
÷ -4
z = 5
x + z = 8
x + 5 = 8
x = 3
y = 4x
y = 4 × 3
y = 12
I hope this helps!
Answer:
9ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar, the corresponding sides are proportional.
Let the height of the flag pole be x feet.
We multiply both sides by 6 to get:
We reduce the fraction to get:
We now simplify
Answer:
180 sq.cm
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 10 x 10 + 16 x 5 x 1/2 x 2
A = 100 + 16 x 5
A = 100 + 80
A = 180 square cm
Hope that helps!
Answer:
Im doing it right now one second
Step-by-step explanation:
A is the correct answer. A coefficient is just a number that appears in front of a variable. Please note that a number that doesn't have a variable behind it is still a coefficient since there is technically a variable behind it with a power of 0.
