P=1886/25 or 75 11/25
Hope this helps :)
All the other answers are all together. an outlier is kind of the awkward one of the group. these numbers are all close and then 83 is so far out
Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at what you are getting on the right hand question. 10a +10b has a common factor that can be pulled out. It is 10
10a + 10b = 10(a + b)
Now look at the denominator
9x - 9y = 9(x -y)
There are a lot of possible answers.
Mine would be to multiply 3/5 * 10/9

so
(10a + 10b)/(9x - 9y) = 2/3
The equation would be y = -3/2x + 1/2
Answer:
1.) x = 14.96ft
2.) The shorter leg is 6 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) a^2 + b^2 = c^2
- a and b = legs of the triangle
- c = hypotenuse the longest side
15ft^2 + x^2 = (2x +1)^2
- 225 = 2x^2 + 1 - x^2
- 225 = x^2 + 1
- 225 - 1 = x^2 +1 - 1
- √224 = √x^2
- x = 14.9662...
2.) Longer leg a = x+2, shorter leg b = x, Hyp. c= 2x-2
Equation:
Solve:
- (x+2)(x+2) + x^2 = (2x-2)(2x-2)
- x^2 + 4x + 4 + x^2 = 4x^2 - 8x +4
- 2x^2 + 4x + 4 = 4x^2 - 8x +4
- 2x^2 + 4x + 4 - 4x^2 +8x - 4 = 4x^2 - 4x^2 - 8x + 8x + 4 - 4
- -2x^2 + 12x = 0
- 2x (-x + 6) = 0
Answers:
- 2x = 0
- -x + 6 = 0
- <u>x=0 -or- x=6</u>
<u>Since x cannot equal 0 due to the known length of the triangle needs to be more than 0 the answer for x equals 0.</u>
<u>B=6</u>
Check:
- A = x + 2: A= 6 +2 = 8
- B= 6
- C = 2x -2: C= 2(6) -2 = 10
8^2 + 6^2 = 10^2
