2.There is this theorem stating that the length of the altitude drawn to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the geometric mean between the segments that the hypotenuse is divided into. In numerical form it would look like this:

6/altitude = altitude/x-6

We can solve the length of the altitude by using Pythagorean Theorem. The altitude creates two triangles within the large triangle. We will be using 6 and 10 to find the altitude. Fortunately, instead of squaring the sides we can simply use the common triple: 3,4,5 to deduce that the length of the altitude is 8. 

Now that we have the value for the altitude we can substitute it into the equation above.

6/8=8/x-6
Cross multiply
64 = 6x - 36
Add 36 to both sides
100 = 6x
50=3x
50/3=x

13. There is another theorem that <span>an angle bisector of a triangle will divide the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to the other two sides of the triangle. In numerical form it would look like this:
20/x = 12/6
cross multiply
12x = 120
x=10</span>

den301095 [7]

Answer:

d + n = 147

0.10d + 0.05n = 11.65

d = 86, n = 61

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Number of dimes = d

Number of nickels = n

Total coins = 147

Total value = $11.65

d + n = 147 (1)

0.10d + 0.05n = 11.65 (2)

From (1)

d = 147 - n

Substitute d = 147 - n into

0.10d + 0.05n = 11.65

0.10(147 - n) + 0.05n = 11.65

14.7 - 0.10n + 0.05n = 11.65

- 0.10n + 0.05n = 11.65 - 14.7

-0.05n = -3.05

n = -3.05 / -0.05

= 61

n = 61

Substitute n = 61 into

d + n = 147

d + 61 = 147

d = 147 - 61

d = 86
