- What is
? Explain it.


Combine y and 3y to get 4y.

Add 0 and 24 to get 24.

Divide both sides by 4.

Divide 24 by 4 to get 6.

Answer:
12.5
Step-by-step explanation: The triangle ABC and its altitude
is represented in the figure below.
<u>Altitude</u> is a segment of line that link a vertex and the opposite side, forming a right angle.
So, because of
, now we have two similar triangles, which means that ratios of corresponding sides are equal:

(1)
This is always true for a right triangle and a altitude drawn to the hypotenuse.
Triangle BDC is also right triangle. So, we can use Pythagorean theorem to determine the missing side.

(2)
Substituting (2) into (1):

We want to find f, so:


f = 7.5
The length of
is



The length of the hypotenuse of triangle ABC is 12.5 units.
Answer:
y = - 49
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
7x - 2y = 35 ← substitute x = - 9 into the equation
7(- 9) - 2y = 35, that is
- 63 - 2y = 35 ( add 63 to both sides )
- 2y = 98 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
y = - 49
Answer:
4 and 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming your 2nd sentence should be: "The sum of the squares of the two numbers is 41"
X + Y = 9 {equation 1}
X² + Y² = 41 {equation 2}
from equation 1: y = 9-x
Substitute that into equation 2
x² + (9-x)² = 41
x² + 81 - 18x + x²= 41
2x² - 18x + 40 = 0
We can factor out a 2
x² - 9x + 20 = 0
(x-5)(x-4) = 0
x = 5 or 4
checking
Your two numbers are 4 and 5
4² + 5²
= 16 + 25
= 41
180 degrees is the area of a triangle
