Mathematics
1 answer:
Vitek1552 [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

6 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

FIrst, reciprocal means that you have to change the order of the fraction.

8 1/2 = 17/2

1 1/3 = 4/3

17/2 by the reciprocal of 4/3 = 17/2 by (this word means to multiply) 3/4

17/2 * 3/4 = 51/8 = 6 3/8

Given: ΔPSQ, PS = SQ Perimeter of ΔPSQ = 50 SQ – PQ = 1 Find: Area of ΔPSQ
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

  120 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = PS + SQ + PQ

50 = SQ + SQ + (SQ -1)

51 = 3SQ

17 = SQ

17 -1 = 16 = PQ

The midpoint of the base is one leg of the right triangle whose other leg is the height of this isosceles triangle. That height is ...

  h = √(17² -(16/2)²) = √225 = 15

Then the area is ...

  A = (1/2)bh = (1/2)(16)(15) = 120 . . . . . square units

Solve these equations for the variable.<br> (4p-4)(13p+27)
kondaur [170]

Answer:

p is approximately equal to 1.125,  -1.925

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this first by expanding, giving us a quadratic equation in the usual ax² + bx + c format, then solving that for p:

(4p - 4)(13p + 27) = 0

52p² + 108p - 52p - 108 = 0

52p² + 52p - 108 = 0

13p² + 13p - 27 = 0

13p² + 13p  = 27

p² + p = 27 / 13

p² + p + 1/4 = 27/13 + 1/4

(p + 1/2)² = 108 / 52 + 13 / 52

(p + 1/2)² = 121 / 52

p + 1/2 = ± √(121 / 52)

p = -1/2 ± 11√(1/13) / 2

At that point we can simply plug those numbers into a calculator and solve it:

p ≈ 1.125,  -1.925

Help please and show work 30 points
grin007 [14]

Answer:

The pair of shoes equal 18.

The boat equals 3

The chair equals 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = shoes

You found the palm trees!

So the top picture would be

18 + x = 2x  Subtract x from both sides

18 = x  We found the value of the shoes.

Let's go so the last picture.  We now know the shoes.

Let x = the boat now

18 = 6x  Divide both sides by 6

x = 3  We found the value of the boat.

Finally, let's look at the second picture.

Let x = the chair now

3 + x = 7  Subtract 3 from both sides

x = 4  We found the value of the chair.
