Answer:

  5

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph can be helpful. It shows possible integer coordinates of Z could be ...

  (-1, 2) or (-5, 1)

These have distances 5 and 4√2 from Y, respectively. Of these, only the length YZ = 5 appears on your list of possible answers.

__

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is the diameter of the circumcircle. That is, the right angle vertex (Z) appears on a circle whose center is the midpoint of the hypotenuse. Here, that circle center is C = (-4-1, 2-3)/2 = (-5/2, -1/2). The given point Y differs from this by C - Y = (-5/2 -(-1), -1/2 -(-3)) = (-3/2, 5/2). So, a point with integer coordinates will be 2×(5/2) = 5 units above point Y, which puts it in the 2nd quadrant.

__

Adding any of the 8 combinations (±3/2, ±5/2) or (±5/2, ±3/2) to the circle center coordinates will result in integer coordinates for the right angle vertex. Of these, only the ones listed above are in the second quadrant. A couple are on the y-axis, and two of the possibilities are X and Y. The other two are in the third quadrant.

calculate the base and perimeter of an isosceles triangle having area 192 cm square. ln which the ratio of base and height is 3:
maksim [4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The area of an isosceles triangle, A = 192 cm²

The ratio of base and height is 3:2.

The area of a triangle is given by :

A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times b\times h

Let base = 3x and height = 2x

So,

192=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3x\times 2x\\\\3x^2=192\\\\x^2=64\\\\x=8

Base = 3x = 3(8) = 24 cm

Height = 2x = 2(8) = 16 cm

Let equal sides be 16 cm and base be 24

So,

Perimeter = sum of all sides

= 16+16+24

= 56 cm

Hence, this is the required solution.

Find the selling price<br><br><br>Cost to store: $90<br><br>Markup: 60%
lisabon 2012 [21]
The markup is what the store adds to its cost of the item to cover expenses and give the store a profit. Find the amount of markup, and add it to the cost to find the selling price.

60% of $90 =

= 60% * 90

= 0.6 * 90

= $54

$90 + $54 = $144

The selling price is $144

What is the value of X in the figure?
egoroff_w [7]
Both angles are vertically opposite

Vertically opposite angles are equal to each other

8x+2=154

Move two to the other side as a negative

8x= 152

Divide both sides by eight to get the value of x

x is equal to 19

Which is the correct coefficient matrix for this system? 3x - 4y = 12 x + 6y = 10
Stels [109]

The coefficients of x and y in the first equation are 3 and -4, respectively.

The coefficients of x and y in the second equation are 1 and 6, respectively.

The coefficient matrix lists these coefficients in order on successive rows, so it will be ...

\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&-4\\1&6\end{array}\right]
