Answer:

x = 4

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

If a triangle is equilateral all three sides are equal. So each side has equal statements.

Solution

3x + 2 = 5x - 2y            Subtract 3x from both sides

2 = 5x -3x - 2y              Combine

2 = 2x - 2y                     divide by 2

x - y = 1                          Equation 1

3x + 2 = 6y - 4            Equilateral triangles have equal sides. Subtract 6y

3x - 6y + 2=  - 4          Subtract 2

3x - 6y = -4 - 2

3x - 6y = - 6                Divide by 3

x - 2y = - 2                  Equation 2.

Now subtract equation 1 from equation 2

x - 2y = - 2

x -  y    =  1                    Subtract

  - y    = - 3                   Multiply by -2

    y = 3

Put y = 3 into equation 1

x - y = 1

x - 3 = 1                         Add 3 to both sides.

x = 4

Answer

x = 4

y = 3

Can someone help me with part b?
Tema [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

the average rate of change of a function f in an interval [x-low, x-high] is

(f(x-high) - f(x-low)) / (x-high - x-low)

the year 2000 means t = 2000-1980 = 20

the year 2015 means t = 2015-1980 = 35

so, we have

(A(35) - A(20)) / (35 - 20)

((-0.6(35)² + 37.2×35 + 243) - (-0.6(20)² + 37.2×20 + 243)) / 15

((-735 + 1302 + 243) - (-240 + 744 + 243)) / 15

(810 - 747) / 15 = 63/15 = 4.2

the average change rate between 2000 and 2015 is 4.2.

that means that the use of nuclear energy in the USA increased by 4.2 billions of kilowatt hours per year during that period.

Find the value of x. x√5=x^4​
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

x=0,\sqrt[6]{5}

Decimal form,

x=0,1.30766048......

Step-by-step explanation:

x\sqrt{5}=x^{4}

x\sqrt{5}-x^{4}=0

(take x as a common factor)

x(\sqrt{5}-x^{3})=0

So,

x=0 and \sqrt{5}-x^{3}=0

for \sqrt{5-x^{3}=0

(add x^{3} for both sides)

\sqrt{5}=x^{3}

x=\sqrt[3]{\sqrt[2]{5} } (multiply 3 by 2)

x=\sqrt[6]{5}

So,

x=0,\sqrt[6]{5}
