Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to pay very close attention to the triangle similarity statement. This says that triangle NML is similar to triangle NVU. But if you look at the way that triangle NVU is oriented in its appearance, it's laying on its side. We need to set it upright so that angle N is the vertex angle, angle V is the base angle on the left, and angle U is the base angle on the right. When we do that we see that sides NV and NM are corresponding and exist in a ratio to one another; likewise with sides VU and ML. Setting up the proportion:
Filling in:
Cross multiply to get
324 = 108x
and x = 3
Answer:
{x,y,z} = {-18,4,2}
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve equation [2] for the variable x
x = -10y + 2z + 18
Plug this in for variable x in equation [1]
(-10y+2z+18) + 9y + z = 20
- y + 3z = 2
Plug this in for variable x in equation [3]
3•(-10y+2z+18) + 27y + 2z = 58
- 3y + 8z = 4
Solve equation [1] for the variable y
y = 3z - 2
Plug this in for variable y in equation [3]
- 3•(3z-2) + 8z = 4
- z = -2
Solve equation [3] for the variable z
z = 2
By now we know this much :
x = -10y+2z+18
y = 3z-2
z = 2
Use the z value to solve for y
y = 3(2)-2 = 4
Use the y and z values to solve for x
x = -10(4)+2(2)+18 = -18

Answer:
3x+6.9 and 3x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
since 3 x x is 3x and the sign in the bracket is addition you place it there then place 3 x 2.3
being 6.9.
1/3 x 9is 9/3 and 3 can multiply both sides to get 3/1 or 3 then bring the minus and 1/3 x 12 is 12/3 3 can multiply both sides to get 4/1 or 4
