If VW≅VY, WX = s + 69, and XY = 4s, what is the value of s?

Katen [24]2 years ago

Answer:

s = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

1. VW ≅ VY is given.

2. XV ≅ VX as it is the same side.

3. ∠WVX ≅ ∠YVX as they are both 90°. ∠WVY is 180° as it is a straight line, so both ∠WVX and ∠YVX are exactly half of that.

Given those three things, you can say that ΔWVX ≅ ΔYVX. Because all corresponding parts of congruent triangles are also congruent, you can be sure that WX ≅ XY. Finally, using that information, you can write an equation and solve for s.

s+69=4s\\s-s+69=4s-s\\69=3s\\\frac{69}{3}=\frac{3s}{3}\\s=23

Answer:

58/15

Step-by-step explanation:

1/6 a^2 + 9/10 b

Let a = -4 and b = 4/3

1/6 ( -4)^2 + 9/10 ( 4/3)

PEMDAS says powers first

1/6 (16) + 9/10 ( 4/3)

Then multiply

16/6 + 6/5

Simplify

8/3 + 6/5

Get a common denominator

8/3 *5/5 + 6/5 *3/3

40/15 + 18/15

58/15

Write 615000 in scientific notation​
lianna [129]

Answer:

6.15 × 10⁵

Step-by-step explanation:

When converting a number of scientific notation, we need to move the decimal point until the number is greater than 1 and less than 10, then multiply this by 10 to the power of the number of places we moved the decimal point (negative when moving it forwards, positive when moving it backwards).

Therefore, 615000 = 6.15 × 10⁵

Evaluate the discriminant of each equation. Tell how many solutions each equation has and whether the solutions are real or imag
Elena L [17]
All these equations are in the form of ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b, and c are some numbers. the discriminants of equations like this are equal to b^2 - 4ac. if the discriminant is negative, there are two imaginary solutions. if the discriminant is positive, there are two real solutions. if the discriminant is 0, there is one real solution.

<span>x^2 + 4x + 5 = 0
</span>b^2 - 4ac
4^2 - 4(1)(5)
16-20
-4, two imaginary solutions.

<span>x^2 - 4x - 5 = 0
</span>b^2 - 4ac
(-4)^2 - 4(1)(-5)
16 + 20
36, two real solutions.

<span>4x^2 + 20x + 25 = 0
</span>b^2 - 4ac
20^2 - 4(4)(25)
400 - 400
0, one real solution.

Answer: 1859.5 mini bears

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given in the question,

10 mini bars = 12.1 grams

10 regular bars = 23.1 gram

1 super bear = 2250 grams

To eat enough mini bears to match the super bears, the number that it'll take will be:

Since 10 mini bars = 12.1 grams

1 mini bear = 12.1 grams / 10 = 1.21 gram

Since 1 super bear = 2250 grams, the number of mini bears needed to equate this will be:

= 2250/1.21

= 1859.5 mini bears
