What is the solution to x?​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sonja [21]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By geometric mean theorem,

In a triangle ABC,

\frac{BC}{AC}=\frac{CD}{BC}

\frac{y}{(4+6)}=\frac{6}{y}

y² = 60

y = √60

y = 7.75

Similarly, \frac{AB}{AC}=\frac{AD}{AB}

\frac{x}{(4+6)}=\frac{4}{x}

x² = 40

x = √40

x = 6.32

3x+9y=12 <br>-3x-6y=18 <br>Solve the system by using elimination​
Ivenika [448]

Answer:  (x, y) = (-26, 10)

This means x = -26 and y = 10 pair up together

===============================================================

How to get that answer:

Add the equations straight down. Think of having 3 separate columns for the three different like terms.

  • 3x + (-3x) becomes 0x and that's just 0. So the x terms go away
  • 9y + (-6y) is the same as 9y-6y which turns into 3y
  • 12 + 18 becomes 30

After all that, we're left with the simpler equation 3y = 30. That solves to y = 10 after dividing both sides by 3.

Plug this back into any equation involving x and y. Solve for x

3x+9y = 12

3x+9(10) = 12

3x+90 = 12

3x = 12-90

3x = -78

x = -78/3

x = -26

We have found that x = -26 and y = 10 pair up together to form the solution.

-------------------

Checking the answer:

Plug (x,y) = (-26, 10) into the first equation

3x+9y = 12

3(-26)+9(10) = 12

-78+90 = 12

12 = 12

We get a true equation since the same thing is on both sides.

Repeat the same idea for the second equation

-3x-6y = 18

-3(-26) - 6(10) = 18

78 - 60 = 18

18 = 18

The second equation is true as well.

Both equations are true, so the solution (x, y) = (-26, 10) is confirmed.

How do I determine if a math question is statistical or not​
Naddik [55]

A statistical question will have more than one answer. Questions like, “How old are the students in my school?”or “What time did the students in this class get up this morning?” are examples of a statistical question. Pretty much if it involves asking more the one people it’s a statistical question because it will lead to more than one answer.
