Answer:
-83/20
Step-by-step explanation:
To start, first distribute 8 to (y+11) which would look something like this:
9y=8y+88
Now, subtract 8y from both sides in order to solve for and isolate the y value. This would result in your answer, y=88.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the linear dimensions (perimeter) is the square root of the ratio of area dimensions, so the larger : smaller ratio is ...
√(72/50) = √1.44 = 1.2
The sum of ratio units is 1.2 + 1 = 2.2, so each ratio unit stands for ...
(226 dm)/2.2 = 102 8/11 dm . . . . . the perimeter of the smaller triangle
Then the perimeter of the larger triangle is ...
1.2 × 102 8/11 dm = 123 3/11 dm . . . . the perimeter of the larger triangle
For this problem, you will need to use the pythagorean theorem which is
So a and b are usually the sides that are NOT the hypotenuse, or in this case the long side that is not at a 90 degree angle.
You will start by plugging 12 into with (a) or (b) but not both. And then you will plug 17 in for (c). Make sure you square these values to solve the equation. Once you do that, it is basic algebra from there to solve for the missing variable. If you want to check to see if your answer is correct, then plug all the side numbers back into the equation. Also your answer should be between 12 and 17, or possibly one of those numbers.
