Solve x − y = 5 for y.

2 answers:

4 0

Answer:
y=-5+x

Explanation:
Goal: to isolate y
x-y=5
Subtract both sides by x
x-y-x=5-x
-y=5-x
Divide both sides by -1 to make y positive
y=-5+x

I hope this helps! Please comment if you have any questions.

A rope is swinging in such a way that the length of the arc is decreasing geometrically. If the first arc is 18 feet long and th

NemiM [27]

Answer: The length of the second arc is 12 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that

A rope is swinging in such a way that the length of the arc is decreasing geometrically,

Length of first arc = 18 feet

Length of third arc = 8 feet

Let the length of second arc be x

As we know that

$\frac{a_2}{a_1}=\frac{a_3}{a_2}\\\\\frac{x}{18}=\frac{8}{x}\\\\x^2=18\times 8\\\\x^2=144\\\\x=\sqrt{144}\\\\x=12$

Hence, the length of the second arc is 12 feet.

Find the area of the polygon

larisa [96]

Answer:

$687.5 \: {ft}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of polygon = Area of square + Area of triangle

$= {25}^{2} + \frac{1}{2} \times 25 \times (30 - 25) \\ \\ = 625 +\frac{1}{2} \times 25 \times5 \\ \\ = 625 + \frac{1}{2} \times 125 \\ \\ = 625 + 62.5 \\ \\ = 687.5 \: {ft}^{2}$

Error Analysis Allie says JKL ~ XYZ<br> What is Allie's error?

Alex Ar [27]

Similar triangles may or may not have equal measures

Allie's error is that Allie did not state the similarity theorem

<h3>How to determine Allie's error </h3>

The statement JKL ~ XYZ means that:

Triangles JKL and XYZ are similar triangles

From the complete question, we have the following highlights:

Angles J and X have equal measures of 55 degrees
The side lengths of triangle XYZ are 3 multiplied by the corresponding side lengths of triangle JKL

The above means that, both triangles are similar by SAS or SSS

In Allie's statement, the similarity theorem is not stated

Hence, Allie's error is that Allie did not state the similarity theorem
