Answer:

Multiple the first equation by -1

Step-by-step explanation:

After doing this you add the two equations together and follow the systems of equations as normal

Answer:

  18√2

Step-by-step explanation:

The smaller triangle sharing a vertex with the larger one is similar and half the area. That means its linear dimensions are √(1/2) = (√2)/2 times those of the larger triangle.

The line segment of interest has length ...

  36 × (√2)/2 = 18√2

_____

The ratio of area of similar figures is the square of the ratio of their linear dimensions. Thus the ratio of linear dimensions is the square root of the ratio of area.

The table shows all the possible outcomes for spinning the pointer of the spinner with four equal sized sections labeled 1–4 and
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two types of spinners here and the outcome of them is independent. That means

P(odd number,C) = P(odd number) * P(C)

There are two odd numbers out of four numbers in the first spinner. The chance of odd number will be:

P(odd) = 2/(2+2)= 1/2= 50%

There are four letters and the desired outcome is C. The chance for C will be:

P(C)= 1/4= 25%

Then the chance will be:

P(odd number,C) = P(odd number) * P(C)

P(odd number,C) =50% * 25% = 12.5%
