Answer:

x= -4 and y= -12

Step-by-step explanation:

x*y=48

x+y=-16

solve one equation for x

y=-16-x

then plug that y into the other equation

x(-16-x)=48

-16x-x^2=48

multiply by -1

x^2+16x=-48

complete the square

x^2+16x+64=-48+64

(x+8)^2=16

solve for x

x+8=sqrt(16)

x+8=4

x=4-8

x=-4

plug x back into original equation

x+y=-16

-4+y=-16

y=-16+4

y=-12

so your answers are x=-4 and y=-12

What part of 3 12 is 1/2 ? I need this asap

Aliun [14]

I assume you are asking one of three things, so I will answer all of them.

if you are asking what is 1/2 of 312, then multiply 312 by 1/2. 312 is really just 312/1, so
$312 \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{312}{1} \times \frac{1}{2}$
we multiply fractions by multiplying straight across
$\frac{312 \times 1}{1 \times 2} = \frac{312}{2} = 156$

if you were asking what part of 3 1/2 is 1/2 then we have to recognize what 3 1/2 is as an improper fraction. to do this, we convert 3 into halves. how many halves of pizza are there in 3 whole pizzas? 6. so we have 6 halves and one half, which is a total of 7 halves.
$\frac{6}{2} + \frac{1}{2} = \frac{7}{2}$
now, we do the same thing as the first problem
$\frac{7}{2} \times \frac{1}{2} = \frac{7 \times 1}{2 \times 2} = \frac{7}{4}$

if you were asking what is half of 3.12, then we convert 1/2 to a decimal and multiply
$\frac{1}{2} = .5 \\ 3.12 \times .5 = 1.56$

Explain why segments connecting any pair of corresponding vertices of congruent pentagons are congruent. make a sketch to suppor

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Congruence between pentagons

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship occurs because having two congruent Pentagons and generating a segment within them (or outside), congruence is extrapolated to the triangles generated within them. Thus, if there is congruence among the pentagons, it will exist between the formed triangles. In other words since the two pentagons are congruent, the corresponding angle pair is congruent. also the two corresponding side pairs are also congruent.

In the attached image for example, the ABCDE and KLMNO pentagons are congruent, so all of their internal division lines are also congruent (AC and KM)

What is another name for angle 1? 1.∠JNL 2. ∠N 3. ∠MNK 4.∠NLJ

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

1. <JNL

Step-by-step explanation:

Point N is the vertex of angle 1. Therefore, we can give <1 another name by using 3 letters which includes the letter of vertex point in the middle, and two other letters of the two rays that meets at the vertex point.

Thus, JN and LN meets at point N. Therefore angle 1 can be named as:

<JNL

1. Write a two-column proof for the following conjecture. You may not need to use all of the rows of the two-column table provid

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Given: ABCD is a parallelogram.

Prove: Angle A and B are supplementary and C and D are supplementary.

That is, m∠A + m∠B = 180° and m∠C + m∠D = 180°

Statement Reason

1. ABCD is a parallelogram 1. Given

2.m∠A=m∠C and m∠B=m∠D 2. Definition of parallelogram.

3.m∠A+m∠B+m∠C+m∠D=360° 3. Definition of quadrilateral

4. m∠A+m∠B+m∠A+m∠B=360° 4. By substitution

⇒ 2( m∠A + m∠B ) = 360°

⇒ m∠A + m∠B = 180°

Similarly, m∠C + m∠D = 180°

5.∠A and ∠C are supplementary, 5. Def. of Supplementary

∠ B and ∠D are supplementary
