Complete question :

a triangular land having area 36m²and perimeter 84 m has length of the edge 26m. Calculate the measure of remaining two sides

Answer:

28cm, 30 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 336 m³ ; lebgth of edge = 26

Perineter, p = 84

Perimeter of triangle :

a + b + c

Length of other two sides = 84 - 26 = 58

If length of one of the sides = x

Lenvyb if the other = 58 - x

From Hero's formular :

Sqrt(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c).

s = perimeter /2 = 84/2 = 42

Sqrt(42(42 - 26)(42 - x)(42 - (58-x))

sqrt(42(16)(42-x)(42-58+x) = 336

sqrt(42(16)(42-x)(-16+x) = 336

672(42-x)(x - 16) = 112896

(42 - x)(x - 16) = 168

42x - 672 - x² + 16x = 168

-x² + 58x - 840 = 0

Using the quadratic equation solver, the roots are :

28, 30

Hence.the other tow sides are 28 cm and 30 cm

There are 16 coins totaling $1.08. All 16 coins were pennies, nickels, and dimes. The number of dimes is equal to the sum of the

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Let the number of nickels be x

Let the number of pennies be y

Let the number of dimes be z

Now z=x+y

FIrst equation:

z+x+y=16

Subsittue for z:

x+y+x+y=16

y=8-x (subsitution)

Hope this helps :)

Line JK passes through points J(–4, –5) and K(–6, 3). If the equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b

garri49 [273]

Answer:

b = - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate m using the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, - 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 6, 3)

m = $\frac{3+5}{-6+4}$ = $\frac{8}{-2}$ = - 4

y = - 4x + b ← is the partial equation

to find b substitute either of the 2 given points into the partial equation

using (- 4, - 5 ), then

- 5 = 16 + b ⇒ b = - 5 - 16 = - 21

No
if you solve the equation
2x - 3 = 9
2x = 9 + 3
2x = 12
x =12/2
x =6

answer is B (second choice)
