Answer:

a = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use cross products to solve

8         a

----- = -------

28        7

8*7 = 28*a

Divide each side by 28

56/28 = 28a/28

2 =a

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  

    8         a

 ------- = ------   Find the value of a that makes this equation true.  

   28        7

  Cross multiplying, we get 28a  =  56, and so a works out to 2.

Check:  Does 8/28 = 2/7?  Yes.

Answer: OPTION B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following System of equations:

\left \{ {{3x-5y=19} \atop {x+y=1}} \right.

You can use the Elimination Method to solve it. The steps are:

1. You can mutliply the second equation by -3.

2. Then you must add the equations.

3. Solve for the variable "y".

Then:

\left \{ {{3x-5y=19} \atop {-3x-3y=-3}} \right.\\.....................\\-8y=16\\\\y=\frac{16}{-8}\\\\y=-2

4. Now that you know the value of the variable "y", you must substitute it into any original equation.

5. The final step is to solve for "x" in order to find its value.

Then:

x+(-2)=1\\\\x=1+2\\\\x=3

Therefore, the solution is:

(3,-2)

Given m||n, find the value of x
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

x = 155º

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 25°    {Vertically opposite angles}

x + y = 180    {Co-interior angles are supplementary}

x + 25 = 180

Subtract 25 from both sides

x = 180 - 25

x = 155°

Two trains leave stations 338 miles apart at the same and travel toward each other. One train travels at 75 miles per hour while
AleksandrR [38]

If they're travelling towards each other;
Effective speed = 75+55 = 130

Distance = 338m

Time= distance/ speed
T= 338/130
T= 2.6 hrs

Aiko jumped rope for an amazing 20 minutes. She stoped at 8:05. When did she start jumping?
marissa [1.9K]
If she stopped at 8;05, and she started 20 minutes earlier, just imaging a clock at 8:05 and turn back time 20 minutes.

Five minutes would be 8:00, ten minutes is 7:55, fifteen minutes is 7:50, and twenty minutes is 7:45. This, she started at 7:45

How do you find the height of a triangle?
Dmitrij [34]
Answers:  height, "h", of a triangle:    <span> h = 2A /  (b₁ + b₂) .
___________________________________________________ </span>
Explanation:
__________________________________________________
The area of a triangle, "A", is equal to (1/2) * (b₁ + b₂) * h ; 
                                    or:  A = (1/2) * (b₁ + b₂) * h
                                    or: write as:  A =  [(b₁ + b₂) * h] / 2 ;
          ___________________________________________
                                     in which:  A = area of the triangle; 
                                                       b₁ = length of one of the bases
                                                                 of the triangle ("base 1");
                                                       b₂ = length of the other base
                                                                 of the triangle ("base 2");
                                                       h = height of the triangle;
____________________________________________________
To find the height of the triangle, we rearrange the formula to solve for "h" (height); assuming that all the units are the same (e.g. feet, centimeters); if no "units" are given, then the assumption is that the units are all the same.
We can use the term "units" if desired, in such cases; in which the area, "A" is measured in "square units"; or "units²",
_________________________________
So, given our formula for the "Area, "A"; of a triangle:
_________________________________________________
 A =  [(b₁ + b₂) * h] / 2 ; we solve for "h" in terms of the other values; by isolating "h" (height) on one side of the equation.
     If we knew the other values; we plug in the those other values.
______________________________________________
  Given:   A =  [(b₁ + b₂) * h] / 2 ;

Multiply EACH side of the equation by "2" ;
_________________________________________
            2*A = {  [(b₁ + b₂) * h] / 2 } * 2 ;
_________________________________________
to get:
_________________________________________
           2A = (b₁ + b₂) * h ;
_____________________________________________________
           Now, divide EACH side of the equation by:  "(b₁ + b₂)" ;  to isolate "h"
on one side of the equation; and solve for "h" (height) in terms of the other values;
_____________________________________
            2A /  (b₁ + b₂) = [ (b₁ + b₂) * h ] / (b₁ + b₂);
______________________________________
to get:
_______________________________________________
           2A /  (b₁ + b₂)  =  h ;  ↔<span>  h = 2A /  (b₁ + b₂)  .
__________________________________________________</span>
