Answer:
19.) must add 9.02 to both sides the answer will be n= 12.87
20.) must subtract 31.53 from 62.4 but add a zero behind the 4 in the number 62.4 and the answer will be r=30.87
22.) Jake needs about 2.21 meters of wood to complete the school project.
Step-by-step explanation:
Six less the number n - 6= n/2
Set equal to each other
x^2 - 8 = 2x
x^2 - 2x - 8 = 0
Factor
(x - 4)(x + 2) = 0
x = 4 or x = -2
Plug in 4
y = 2x or y = x^2 - 8
y = 2(4) or y = 4^2 - 8
y = 8
Plug in -2
y = 2x or y = x^2 - 8
y = 2(-2) or y = (-2)^2 - 8
y = -4
There are two solutions
(4, 8) and (-2, -4)
Answer:
x=75
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use proportions to solve this problem. Put the side of the small triangle over the side of the large triangle.
42 50
------ = ----------
42+63 50+x
42 50
------ = ----------
105 50+x
Using cross products
42(50+x) = 50*(105)
2100+42x = 5250
Subtract 2100 from each side
2100-2100+42x = 5250-2100
42x =3150
Divide by 42
42x/42 = 3150/42
x = 75
