Hi there!
Since the triangle is equilateral, all of its sides are congruent. This means that to solve, we can set the two given equations equal to each other.
2(x - 8) = 1/2x + 8
2x - 16 = 1/2x + 8
1.5x - 16 = 8
1.5x = 24
x = 16
Now that we know what x is, we can plug that in for x in the equation for ZY.
2(16 - 8) = ZY
ZY = 2(8)
ZY = 16 units
And here is the work to show that XZ is also 16.
1/2(16) + 8 = XZ
XZ = 8 + 8
XZ = 16
Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!
Answer:
38
Step-by-step explanation:
A straight like has an angle of 180 degrees
If one angle of a straight line is 142
Equation:
180 - 142 = other angle
180 - 142 = 38
Times the two radicals together
So it's:
8*sqrt 15*5 (find common numbers between 5 and 15 which is 5)
8*sqrt(5^2*3)
8*5 sqrt3
40 sqrt 3
Hope this helped :)
[ Answer ]
Y = -12 / 5
[ Explanation ]
Expand:
-3y - 9 = 2y + 3
Add 9 to both sides:
-3y - 9 + 9 = 2y + 3 - 9
Simplify:
-3y = 2y + 12
Subtract 2y from both sides:
-3y - 2y = 2y + 12 - 2y
Simplify:
-5y = 12
Divide both sides by -5:
-5y / -5 = 12 / -5
Simplify:
Y = -12 / 5
