Answer:
The easiest way would be to try to solve for x
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of triangle = (1/2)*base*height
20.335 = (1/2)*base*8.3
2*20.335 = base*8.3
(2*20.335) / 8.3 = base Use your calculator.
4.9 = base
base = 4.9cm
Leg CB = x and leg DE = y - 1. Becuase of the markings on the triangles, we know that CB = DE; therefore, x = y - 1. So let's use that x value when we set the 2 hypotenuses equal to each other. Before any substition, 3x - 2 = 2y + 1. Subbing in for x we have 3(y - 1) - 2 = 2y + 1. And 3y - 3 - 2 = 2y + 1. Combining like terms we have y = 6. If y = 6, we will sub it into the leg equation to find x. x = y - 1; therefore, x = 6 - 1 and x = 5. There you go! x = 5 and y = 6
Answer:
Each person contributed 42 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
divide 5544 by 132
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the slope because x is the slope, and if there is no number in front of x then x is 1. There is also a negative in front of x which means the answer is -1.
