We have a right triangle with
a = one leg = 28
b = other leg = 21
c = hypotenuse = 5x
use the pythagorean theorem (a^2+b^2 = c^2) and solve for x
a^2+b^2 = c^2
28^2+21^2 = (5x)^2
784+441 = 25x^2
1225 = 25x^2
25x^2 = 1225
(25x^2)/25 = 1225/25
x^2 = 49
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(49)
|x| = 7
x = 7 or x = -7
Since the hypotenuse has length 5x meters, this means
5x = 5*7 = 35
or
5x = 5(-7) = -35
Toss out the negative length as it makes no sense.
The only value of x is x = 7
Therefore the final answer is x = 7
Answer:
507
Step-by-step explanation:
For the Algebraic Expression,
let the two numbers be X and y
lets assume x = 217
From the question,
217 + y = 724
y = 724-217
y = 507
Therefore, the other number is 507
Add 10.25 and 2.00 keep subtractin the value you got with 1.50 until you get to your answer....Please mark brainliest...
10x+2y=18
10x-7y=-18
Multiply the second one by -1
-10x+7y=18
Then add the two equations
10x+2y=18
+-10x+7y=18
----------------
9y=36
y=4
Plug that back into one of the equations above and solve for x
10x+2y=18
10x+2(4)=18
10x+8=18
10x=10
x=1
so your answer is x=1 and y=4 or (1,4)
