Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Statement                                           Reason

ΔWZX and ΔYZX are                         Given

right angled triangles

WX = YX                                              Given

XZ ≅ XZ                                               Reflexive property. The reflexive  

                                                            property of congruence states that              

                                                            any shape is congruent to itself.

∠XZW = ∠XZY                                     Definition of right angle.

∠XWZ = ∠XYZ                                     Definition of isosceles triangle.

                                                             Triangle XYW forms a right angled  

                                                             triangle since YX = WX

∠XWZ + ∠WXZ + ∠XZW = 180°           Sum of angles in triangle WZX

∠XZY + ∠XYZ + ∠YXZ = 180°            Sum of angles in triangle YZX

∠XWZ + ∠WXZ + ∠XZW =                 Substitution

∠XZY + ∠XYZ + ∠YXZ

∠XYZ + ∠WXZ + ∠XZY =                 Substitution

∠XZY + ∠XYZ + ∠YXZ

∠WXZ = ∠YXZ                                  Simplification

Tickets to the school play are $5.00 for adults and $3.50 for students. If the total value of all the tickets sold was $2517.50
Irina-Kira [14]
x-\ adults\\
y-\ students\\\\  \left \{ {{5x+3.50y=2517.5} \atop {x+100=y}} \right.\\\\
5x+3.5(x+100)=2517.5\\\\
5x+3.5x+350=2517.5\ \ \ | subtract\ 350\\\\
8.5x= 2167,5\ \ \ | divide\ by\ 8.5\\\\
x=255\\\\
y=355\\\\
There\ were\ 355\ student\ tickets\ and\ 255\ adult\ tickets.

If x^2+1/x^2=3 find the value of x^2/(x^2+1)^2<br> Express answer as a common fraction.<br> Thanks!!
timama [110]

x^2+\dfrac1{x^2}=3\implies x^4+1=3x^2\implies x^4-3x^2+1=0

By the quadratic formula,

x^2=\dfrac{3\pm\sqrt5}2\implies x^2+1=\dfrac{5\pm\sqrt5}2

Then

(x^2+1)^2=\dfrac{25\pm10\sqrt5+5}4=\dfrac{15\pm5\sqrt5}2

\implies\dfrac{x^2}{(x^2+1)^2}=\dfrac{\frac{3\pm\sqrt5}2}{\frac{15\pm5\sqrt5}2}=\dfrac{3\pm\sqrt5}{15\pm5\sqrt5}

Multiply numerator and denominator by the denominator's conjugate:

\dfrac{3\pm\sqrt5}{15\pm5\sqrt5}\cdot\dfrac{15\mp5\sqrt5}{15\mp5\sqrt5}=\dfrac{45\pm15\sqrt5\mp15\sqrt5-25}{15^2-(5\sqrt5)^2}=\dfrac{20}{100}=\dfrac15

What is y = 6/3x - 2 in standard form?
umka2103 [35]
Y = 6/3x - 2
Just move x to the other side, 
y - 6/3x = -2
Multiply by -1, 
6/3x - y = 2

In short, Your Answer would be 6/3x - y = 2 or 2x - y = 2

Hope this helps!
