Could the value of x in the figure below be 10?

Mathematics
1 answer:
RSB [31]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

It cannot

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse is always the longest side, which in this instance of the left triangle, it is 14

If x were to be 10, this would make line KM to be 15 units long,  (10 + 5)

Despite line LM being unknown, x must have a number below 10 (, and 9) to make it possible

Compare the line passing through the points (–2, –9) and (4, 6) to the line given by the equation y = 25x – 4.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

D. They have the same y-intercep

Step-by-step explanation:

Before the comparison will be efficient, let's determine the equation of the two points and the x intercept .

(–2, –9) and (4, 6)

Gradient= (6--9)/(4--2)

Gradient= (6+9)/(4+2)

Gradient= 15/6

Gradient= 5/2

Choosing (–2, –9)

The equation of the line

(Y+9)= 5/2(x+2)

2(y+9)= 5(x+2)

2y +18 = 5x +10

2y =5x -8

Y= 5/2x -4

Choosing (4, 6)

The equation of line

(Y-6)= 5/2(x-4)

2(y-6) = 5(x-4)

2y -12 = 5x -20

2y = 5x-8

Y= 5/2x -4

From the above solution it's clear that the only thing the both equation have in common to the given equation is -4 which is the y intercept

20. What is the value of y in the algebraic
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer: 17/7

Step-by-step explanation: Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation. y+4/15 + 2y−5/5 = 2/5 1/15 y+ 4/15 + 2/5 y+−1= 2/5 (Distribute) ( 1/15 y+ 2/5 y)+( 4/15 +−1)= 2/5 (Combine Like Terms) 7/15 y+ −11/15 = 2/5 7/15 y+ −11/15 = 2/5 Step 2: Add 11/15 to both sides. 7/15 y+ −11/15 + 11/15 = 2/5 + 11/15 7 15 y= 17/15

15+3x-4+6x= 9x+11 add 6+3 then subtract 15-4

3y-4x+8x-y= 4x+2y add -4+8 then subtract 3-1

5x+8x+10x-3x= 20x Add 10+5+8 to get 23 then subtract 3
