What are the values of x and y?

Mathematics

tresset_1 [31]3 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

y is easy.

it is the Hypotenuse (baseline) of the small right-angled triangle created by the height (8) of the main triangle, the segment 6 of the main Hypotenuse and y.

so, Pythagoras :

y² = 8² + 6² = 64 + 36 = 100

y = 10

x is a bit more complex.

I think the easiest way to get it is to know that the height of a right-angled triangle to the Hypotenuse is the square root of the product of both segments of the Hypotenuse.

so, if we call the segments of the Hypotenuse a and b with a = 6, we have

x = a + b = 6 + b

height (8) = sqrt(a×b) = sqrt(6b)

therefore,

6b = height² = 8² = 64

b = 64/6 = 32/3 = 10 2/3 = 10.66666666...

so,

x = 6 + 10.66666... = 16.666666666...

round it to what is needed. e.g. 2 positions after the decimal point (hundredths) ? then it would be 10.67

Prove that 25^11−5^19 is divisible by 31.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Divisible by 3 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

First get everything to have the same base of 5

25^11 - 5^19

(5^2)^11 - 5^19

5^(2*11) - 5^19

5^22 - 5^19

Now factor out the GCF 5^19 to get

5^22 - 5^19

5^(19+3) - 5^(19+0)

5^19*5^3 - 5^19*5^0

5^19(5^3 - 5^0)

5^19(125 - 1)

5^19*(124)

At this point, we factor the 124 into 31*4 to end up with this full factorization: 5^19*31*4

Therefore, 25^11 - 5^19 is equivalent to 5^19*31*4

Since 31 is a factor of the original expression, this means the original expression is divisible by 31.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

$357.42

Step-by-step explanation:

So first I multiplied $425.50 by 20%.

$425.50 * 0.20=  85.10

$425.50- 85.10= $340.40

$340.40 * 0.05 = $17.02

$340.40 * 0.07 = $23.828

$340.40 + 23.828 + 17.02= $ 357.42

The sale price of Dean's guitar is $357.42.

the area of a room in a dollhouse is 1248 square inches. the width of the room is 8 inches. how long is the room
zaharov [31]
The dollhouse is 156 inches long.

Area is computed by multiplying the length to its width.

A = L * W

Use the formula and substitute the values given in the problem.
A = 1248 sq. inches
w = 8 inches
L = ?

1248 = L * 8

L = 1248 sq. in/ 8 in
L = 156 inches
