Answer:

  • 16 and 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x and y. Then we got following equations:

  • x + y = 34
  • 1/2x + 1/3y = 14

<u>Double the second equation and subtract from the first one. Solve for y:</u>

  • x + y - x - 2/3y = 34 - 2*14
  • 1/3y = 6
  • y = 3*6
  • y = 18

<u>Find x:</u>

  • x = 34 - 18 = 16

Solve for each missing side
vlada-n [284]
A triangle 45 – 45 – 90 degree (or isosceles right triangle) is a triangle with angles of 45°, 45°, and 90° and sides in the ratio of 1:1:√2

if hypo  = 3√2 then side = 3
answer
a = b = 3

-------------------
<span>30-60-90 Triangle
</span>long leg = short leg times √3
hypo = twice the short leg

given long leg = 5√3
so

short leg = b = 5
hypo = c = 2(5) = 10

Hich function has a range of {y|y ≤ 5}?
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

f(x)=-(x-4)^{2}+5

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of a vertical parabola into vertex form is equal to

y=a(x-h)^{2}+k

where

(h,k) is the vertex of the parabola

if a>0 -----> the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

if a<0 -----> the parabola open downward (vertex is a maximum)

<u>Verify each case</u>

case A) f(x)=(x-4)^{2}+5

The vertex is the point (4,5)

a=1

a>0 -----> the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

The range is the interval--------> [5,∞)

y\geq5

case B) f(x)=-(x-4)^{2}+5

The vertex is the point (4,5)

a=-1

a<0 -----> the parabola open downward (vertex is a maximum)

The range is the interval--------> (-∞,5]

y\leq 5

case C) f(x)=(x-5)^{2}+4

The vertex is the point (5,4)

a=1

a>0 -----> the parabola open upward (vertex is a minimum)

The range is the interval--------> [4,∞)

y\geq4

case D) f(x)=-(x-5)^{2}+4

The vertex is the point (5,4)

a=-1

a<0 -----> the parabola open downward (vertex is a maximum)

The range is the interval--------> (-∞,4]

y\leq 4
