X+x+y+y+z+z=24

Mathematics
1 answer:
JulijaS [17]2 years ago

Answer:

b = 7/2

x = 11/2

y = 21/2

z = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y + 2z = 24

x + y + z = 12

b + 2x + y + z = 21

2b + 2y = 28

b + y = 14

3x + y + z = 23

we can start anywhere by transforming these equations in a way that always one variable is excised by others.

so, e.g.

b = 14 - y

14 - y + 2x + y + z = 21

2x + z = 7

z = 7 - 2x

3x + y + 7 - 2x = 23

x + y = 16

16 + z = 12

z = -4

-4 = 7 - 2x

-11 = -2x

11 = 2x

x = 11/2

11/2 + y = 16

y = 16 - 11/2 = 32/2 - 11/2 = 21/2

b = 14 - 21/2 = 28/2 - 21/2 = 7/2

I need to find the perimeter and area of the regular polygon.
mezya [45]
The area of a polygon is given by the formula Area = ap/2 where a is the length of the apothem and p is the perimeter. The apothem is a line from the center of the polygon perpendicular to a side.

Depending on the formula you know, you can find the length of a side in 1 of 2 ways. 

The first way uses a triangle. Using the radius of the polygon you can create 8 congruent triangles. The center angle will be 360 / 8 = 45 and two side lengths of 20. You can find the length of the base using the law of cosines.

c^2 = 20^2 + 20^2 - 2(20)(20)(cos 45)
c^2 = 400 + 400 - 800(cos 45)
c^2 = 800 - 800(cos 45)
c = sqrt(800 - 800(cos 45)
c = 15.31

The second way is to use this formula:
r = s / (2 sin(180 / n))
20 = s / (2 sin(180/8)
(20)(2)sin(22.5) = s
(40)sin(22.5) = s
s = 15.31

We need to calculate the perimeter. As there are 8 sides (8)(15.31) = 122.48
Now we need to calculate the apothem using

a = S / (2 tan (180 / n)
a = 15.31 / (2 tan (180 / 8))
a = 18.48

Now solve for the area

Area = ap/2
Area = (18.48)(122.48)/2
Area = 1131.72

perimeter = 122.48
area = 1131.72

Find the 137th odd number.
KIM [24]

The first odd number is 1. The next is 2 more than the previous one.

It's an arithmetic sequence.

The general term of an arithmetic sequence:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

a_n - n-th term

a_1 - first term

d - common difference.

We have

a_1=1,\ d=2,\ n=137

Substitute:

a_{137}=1+(137-1)(2)=1+(136)(2)=1+272=273

<h3>Answer: 137th odd number is equal 273.</h3>
