Chelsea has 55 art brushes. She has this manu because Monique has 5 necause 11x5 is 55. 55 plus Monique's 5 is 60 brushes in total. Have a nice day :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the point-slope form given by:
Where <em>m</em> is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is a point.
So, we will substitute -2 for <em>m</em> and (5, 2) for (x₁, y₁). This gives us:
Simplify:
Distribute:
Add 2 to both sides. Hence, our equation is:
We need Pythagoras theorem here
a^2+b^2 = c^2
a, b = legs of a right-triangle
c = length of hypotenuse
Let S=shorter leg, in cm, then longer leg=S+2 cm
use Pythagoras theorem
S^2+(S+2)^2 = (10 cm)^2
expand (S+2)^2
S^2 + S^2+4S+4 = 100 cm^2 [collect terms and isolate]
2S^2+4S = 100-4 = 96 cm^2
simplify and form standard form of quadratic
S^2+2S-48=0
Solve by factoring
(S+8)(S-6) = 0 means (S+8)=0, S=-8
or (S-6)=0, S=6
Reject nengative root, so
Shorter leg = 6 cm
Longer leg = 6+2 cm = 8 cm
Hypotenuse (given) = 10 cm
Ans: 20.25
can convert the mixed numbers fractions to improper fractions before making the denominators the same and coming up with the answer in decimals
hope this helps:))
