We know that

scale factor=XY/AB--------> 6/3-----> 2

area of a triangle=b*h/2
in the triangle XYZ
b=8.4 units
h=3.36 units
the area of triangle XYZ=8.4*3.36/2-----> 14.112 units²

in the triangle ABC
b=4.2 units
h=3.36/2-----> 1.68 units  (remember scale factor)
the area of triangle ABC=4.2*1.68/2-----> 3.528 units²

the answer is
the area of triangle ABC is 3.528 units²


<span>alternative method
</span>
area triangle XYZ=area triangle ABC*[scale factor]²
area triangle ABC=area triangle XYZ/[scale factor]²----> 14.112/2²---> 3.528 units²

2(1 − x) = 9(1 + 2x) + 52(1 − x) = 9(1 + 2x) + 5
marusya05 [52]

Solving the equation 2(1-x) = 9(1 + 2x) + 5 we get x=-\frac{3}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation 2(1-x) = 9(1 + 2x) + 5 and find value of x

Solving:

2(1-x) = 9(1 + 2x) + 5\\2-2x=9+18x+5\\Adding\,\,-18x\,\,on\,\,both\,\,sides:\\2-2x-18x=9+5\\Adding\,\,-2\,\,on\,\,both\,\,sides\\-20x=14-2\\-20x=12\\x=\frac{12}{-20}\\x=-\frac{3}{5}

So, solving the equation 2(1-x) = 9(1 + 2x) + 5 we get x=-\frac{3}{5}

PLS HELP ALGEBRA 2 QUESTION ASAP 5 STARS AND BRAINLIEST what type of polynomial is <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-5x%5E%7B4%
devlian [24]

Answer:

Binomial

Step-by-step explanation:

Edited to add:

It can also be called a binomial because there are 2 unlike terms x and y. I'm not sure what you are studying, so it may be better to go with binomial. The Quartic is when you are looking at the degree of a single term polynomial.

You can name a polynomial based on terms, or based on degrees.

If it's based on degree it would be bi-quadratic, because it's ^4 and you have 2 different terms. If you're looking at terms it would be binomial because you have x and y to solve for.

The degree of terms is a major deciding factor whether an equation is homogeneous or not. A polynomial of more that one variable is said to be homogeneous if the degree of each term is the same. For example, 2x^7+5x^5y^2-3x^4y^3+4x^2y^5 is a homogeneous polynomial of degree 7 in x and y.

You have a 4 term polynomial with 2 variables x and y. The highest degree in your equation is 5 (4 + 1 from the first term) so the degree of the multivariable polynomial expression is 6.

All these answers are correct, it just depends what you're studying. If some of these words are new, and others you recognize from class or your book, go with the one that looks familiar.

Determine the coefficient of x^3 in the expansion of (1 – x)^5(1 + 1/x)^5
Mkey [24]

Notice that

(1 - <em>x</em>)⁵ (1 + 1/<em>x</em>)⁵ = ((1 - <em>x</em>) (1 + 1/<em>x</em>))⁵ = (1 - <em>x</em> + 1/<em>x</em> - 1)⁵ = (1/<em>x</em> - <em>x</em>)⁵

Recall the binomial theorem:

\displaystyle(a+b)^n = \sum_{k=0}^n\binom nk a^{n-k}b^k

Let <em>a</em> = 1/<em>x</em>, <em>b</em> = -<em>x</em>, and <em>n</em> = 5. Then

\displaystyle\left(\frac1x-x\right)^5 = \sum_{k=0}^5\binom5k\left(\frac1x\right)^{5-k}(-x)^k = \sum_{k=0}^5 (-1)^k\binom5k x^{2k-5}

We get an <em>x</em> ³ term for

2<em>k</em> - 5 = 3   ==>   2<em>k</em> = 8   ==>   <em>k</em> = 4

so that the coefficient would be

(-1)^4\dbinom54 = \boxed{5}
