Answer:
Yes, this is a right triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug the values into the pythagorean thm.
1.5^2 + 2^2 = 2.5^2
2.25+4=6.25
6.25=6.25
The slope of line D is also -4 because the lines are perpendicular.
Answer:
x = .87, or when approximated to a fraction, 27/31
y = -3.67, or when approximated to a fraction, -1287/350
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets start by rewriting out our equations
2x + 7y = -24
18x + y = 12
Lets solve for a y value; the second equation is easiest, as the y value has no coefficient (the number that is multiplied times a variable). To do this, lets move the 18x to the other side. Now our two equations look like:
2x + 7y = -24
y = -18x + 12
Next, lets plus the second equation into the first equation in regards to y.
2x + 7(-18x + 12) = -24
Now, lets solve!
2x -126x + 84 = -24
Then, combine your terms!
-124x = -108
Divide by (-124)!
x = -108/-124
x = 27/31
Now that we know x, lets plug this back in to the first equation to find y!
2(27/31) + 7y = -24
1.74 + 7y = -24
7y = -25.74
y = -3.67, or when approximated to a fraction, -1287/350
Answer:
1.25x10^2
Step-by-step explanation:
5x5^2
5x5x5=125
125=1.25x10^2
Therefore 5x5^2=1.25x10^2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, it says that the company not only shipped packages, but also bought a number of stamps. From the equation 6.70+0.50x, it's fairly easy to say that 6.70 is the packages,
What's not so easy is figuring out whether or not 0.50 is the stamps, or x is. However, there's an easy way to figure it out!
From this one, we would have to use "common sense" (not my words, someone elses). Using "common sense", we have to think, can someone buy 0.50 of a stamp?
Technically yes... But would someone buy 0.5 of a stamp? Not really.
So we can safetly assume that x is the "stamp", and 0.50 is <em>the cost of the stamp</em>.
Hope this helps!
