Use this picture to solve for X

Mathematics
1 answer:
Zepler [3.9K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

i would set up a system of equation using the pythagorean theorem:

1^2+x^2=z^2

4^2+x^2=y^2

Add up these equations to get:

17+2x^2=y^2+z^2

But notice that

y^2+z^2=5^2

So you can substitute

17+2x^2=25

2x^2=8

x^2=4

x=2

There exists a linear function f(x) such that f(6) = 8, f(2)=20, and f(a) = 16. What is the value of 2a?
atroni [7]

Answer:

a = 10/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

We write the linear function as follows:

f(x) = mx + b   where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

f(6) = 6m + b = 8

f(2) = 2m + b = 20    Subtracting these 2 equations:

4m = -12

m = -3.

and  -3 * 2 + b = 20 so:

b =   20 + 6 = 26.

So we have the linear function:

f(x) = -3 x + 26

f(a) = 16 = -3 a + 26

-3 a = 16-26

a = -10 * -3 =  10/3.

A contractor is building a pool labeled ABCD on the plans. If AC = 5y + 6 and BD = 8y-3, what value of y ensures the pool is a r
KIM [24]

The value of y that ensures the pool is a rectangle is 3. Option D

<h3>How to determine the value</h3>

The formula for perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as;

Perimeter = 2 ( length + width)

It is important to note that parallel sides of a rectangle are congruent, that is, they are equal.

Given the sides as;

  • AC = 5y + 6
  • BD = 8y-3

5y + 6 = 8y -3

collect like terms

5y - 8y = -3 - 6

-3y = -9

Make 'y' the subject

y = 3

Thus, the value of y that ensures the pool is a rectangle is 3. Option D
