Answer:
X = 34 (by Pythagoras theorem)
STEP BY STEP:
(30) ^2 +(16)^2 =1156
Root 1156 =34
I hope it helps :))
He used 53 pounds. I got this by using two equations.
a+b=117
and
5.8a+4.1b= 569.8
I took the first equation and subtracted 'b' so the equation looked like a=117-b.
I then plugged in 117-b into the second equation, so it ended up looking like this:
5.8 (117-b)=569.8
5.8 times 117 is 678.6. And 5.8 times negative b is negative 5.8b.
The equation now looks like this:
678.6-5.8b+4.1b=569.8
Add like terms
678.6-1.7b=569.8
Then subtract 678.6 from both sides
-1.7b= -108.8
divide each side by -1.7
you get b= 64.
But because you are looking for how many pounds for a, subtract 64 from 117. You get 53. 53 is the answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
so we are gonna have a percent decrease because it went from 188 to 42
decrease = (original number - new number) / (original number ) * 100
= (188 - 42) / (188) * 100
= (146 / 188) * 100
= 0.7766 * 100
= 77.66% decrease....not sure if u need ur answer rounded to the nearest percent or not....if so, its a 78% decrease
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given equation:

Expand the left side:

Let all terms on the left side have the same denominator of 7:

Join the terms on the left side:


Let all the terms on the right side have the same denominator of 3:

Join the terms on the right side:


Cross multiply:

Expand:

Add 12x to both sides:

Add 252 to both sides:

Divide both sides by 40:


(0,4),(3,0)
slope = (0 - 4) / (3 - 0) = -4/3
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -4/3
ur y int is when x = 0....so it is 4
and in y = mx + b form, the slope is in the m position and the y int is in the b position
so ur equation is : y = -4/3x + 4 <==
