Answer:

37 and 38

Step-by-step explanation:

let the consecutive integers be x-1 and x

If their sum is 75

x-1+x = 75

2x - 1 = 75

2x = 75+1

2x = 76

x = 76/2

x = 38

First integer = x - 1

First integer = 38-1 = 37

Second integer is 38

Hence the integers are 37 and 38

You buy a container of cat litter for $12.25 and a bag of cat food for x dollars. The total purchase is $19.08, which includes 6

Jlenok [28]

Answer: 19.08 = x + 12.25 is the equation.

$6.83 is the cost.

Step-by-step explanation: Solve for x in the equation to find the total cost of the cat food.

19.08 = x + 12.25 (All you're doing is subtracting 12.25 from 19.08)

6.83 = x

Item 15 Question 1 Show that quadrilateral WXYZ with vertices W(−1,6), X(2, 8), Y(1, 0), and Z(−2,−2) is a parallelogram by find

Aliun [14]

Answer:

Multiple answers

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is a flat shape that has four sides. The two sets of opposite sides are parallel and of equal length to each other.

To prove that our figure is a parallelogram we first get the slope of our sides.

The formule we use to get the slope is:

m = $\frac{y-y1}{x-x1}$

first we have the W-Z side that it's supossed to be parallel to X-Y side

if we use our formule to calculate the slope of W-Z:

$\frac{6-(-2)}{-1-(-2)}$ = $\frac{8}{1}$ = 8

if we use our formule to calculate the slope of X-Y:

$\frac{8-0}{2-1}$ = $\frac{8}{1}$ = 8

We know that parallel lines will never intersect because they have the same slope, therefore W-Z side is parallel to X-Y side

2. Then we have the W-X side that it's supossed to be parallel to Z-Y side

if we use our formule to calculate the slope of W-X:

$\frac{6-8}{-1-2}$ = $\frac{-2}{-3}$

if we use our formule to calculate the slope of Z-Y:

$\frac{-2-0}{-2-1}$ = $\frac{-2}{-3}$

We know that parallel lines will never intersect because they have the same slope, therefore W-X side is parallel to Z-Y side

Then we have to prove that the parallalel sides are equal length to each other.

The formule we use to get the distance between two points is:

$\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2}+(y2-y1)^{2} }$

We calculate the lenght of the W-Z side that it's supossed to be equal to X-Y side:

W-Z = $\sqrt{(-1-(-2))^{2}+(6-(-2))^{2} }$ = $\sqrt{65}$

X-Y = $\sqrt{(2-1)^{2}+(8-0)^{2} }$ = $\sqrt{65}$

So the W-Z side have the same lenght to X-Y side.

We calculate the lenght of the W-X side that it's supossed to be equal to Z-Y side:

W-X = $\sqrt{(-1-2)^{2}+(6-8)^{2} }$ = $\sqrt{13}$

Z-Y = $\sqrt{(-2-1)^{2}+(-2-0)^{2} }$ = $\sqrt{13}$

So the W-X side have the same lenght to Z-Y side.

What is the surface area of the square pyramid?

wel

Ok to start you need to break this into a net in your head. Next, calculate each triangle
(6*7)/2 = 21
Then, multiply each triangle by the amount of them.
21*4 = 84
Next, get the area of the square.
7*7 = 49
Lastly, add the triangles and the square up.
49 + 84 = 133
