The perimeters of the triangles shown below are equal

Mathematics
2 answers:
natulia [17]3 years ago

Answer:

x=19

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a shape is the sum of all of its side lengths. Therefore, the perimeter of the first triangle is x-7+x-7+x-7=3x-21 and the perimeter of the second triangle is 9+15+12=36.

We are given that the perimeters of the triangles are equal, so 3x-21 equals 36. As an equation, that would be 3x-21=36. Solving for x, we get:

3x-21=36

3x=57 (Add 21 to both sides of the equation to isolate x)

x=19 (Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get rid of x's coefficient)

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=19

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the right triangle is

P=9+12+15 =36

The perimeter of the left triangle is

P =x-7+ x-7+ x-7 = 3x-21

Set them equal

36 = 3x-21

Add 21 to each side

36+21 = 3x-21+21

57 = 3x

Divide each side by 3

57/3 = 3x/3

19 =x

As the value of the multiple coefficient of determination increases,
Leona [35]

Answer:

a.the goodness of fit for the estimated multiple regression equation increases.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the value of the multiple coefficient of determination increases,

a. the goodness of fit for the estimated multiple regression equation increases.

As we know that the coefficient of determination measures the variability of response variable with the help of regressor. As we know that if the value of the coefficient of determination increases strength of fit also increases.

A bank loaned out 16,000 ​$​, part of it at the rate of 6% per year and the rest at 14% per year. If the interest received in on
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

This question requires a comparison between two different variables 6% and 16% values.  If we let x=$ loaned on 6% loans and y=$ loaned on 16% loans, then we can relate two equations.

0.06x + 0.16y = $1500  --> referencing the interest earned from each percentage loaned.

x + y = $16000  --> referencing the total amount of money loaned out.

Rearrange either equation and substitute for a value in the other equation or use elimination to determine each individual variable.

Please answer if you know the answer!<br><br> [Help]
Alinara [238K]

Remember that an exponent means repeated multiplication.

The exponent of 4 means you have four \big(b^2\big)'s mutiplied together:

      \big(b^2\big)\cdot\big(b^2\big)\cdot\big(b^2\big)\cdot\big(b^2\big)

And then each exponent of 2 inside means you have two b's multiplied inside each set of parentheses.:  

    \big(b\cdot b\big)\cdot\big(b\cdot b\big)\cdot\big(b\cdot b\big)\cdot\big(b\cdot b\big)

There are 8 b's there when you expand this out.
