If 4x + 2y = 14 and x - 2y = 6, what is the value of y?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]4x + 2y = 14 - - - (a) \\ x - 2y = 6 - - - (b)[/tex]

(a) + (b):

[tex]5x = 20 \\ x = 4[/tex]

therefore:

[tex]x - 2y = 6 \\ 4 - 2y = 6 \\ 2y = - 2 \\ y = - 1[/tex]

Answer 2

Answer:

y must be -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the system of linear equations

4x + 2y = 14

 x - 2y = 6

and need to find the value of y.  Combining the two equations yields

5x = 20, and so we know that x must be 4.

If x is 4, then the second equation becomes 4 - 2y = 6, or -2y = 2.

Then y must be -1.

Find the height of the triangle

Answers

Answer:

The height is 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given a triangle with the 3 sides marked as 15, 20, and 25 and we want to find the height of it (marked as x in the problem).

This problem can seem a bit difficult, but let's see if the triangle is a right triangle first off.  

One way to figure out if it is a right triangle is to apply the converse of the Pythagorean theorem.

Let's label the sides, where a is the shortest side, b is the second shortest side, and c is the longest side:

a=15

b=20

c=25  

Now square a and b, then add the result together. If it's the same as c squared, then the triangle is a right triangle

15²+20²=25²

225+400=625

625=625

So we can safely say that the triangle is a right triangle

This makes the problem way easier, as there are 2 ways to find the area of a right triangle:

The first way is to multiply the legs (the sides that make up the right angle) together, then divide the result by 2

The other way is to multiply the height and the hypotenuse (the side OPPOSITE to the right angle) together, and then divide the result by 2

First, we need to figure out which sides are the legs, and which side is the hypotenuse

By the triangle inequality theorem, the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the longest side, which means that the 25 cm side is the hypotenuse, and that leaves 15 cm and the 20 cm sides as the legs

So let's find the area of the triangle using the legs

A=[tex]\frac{15*20}{2}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{300}{2}[/tex]=150

So the area of the triangle is 150 cm²

However, as mentioned above, we can also find the area of the triangle by multiplying the hypotenuse by the base, then dividing the result by 2

Which means that the area is also:

A=[tex]\frac{25x}{2}[/tex] cm²

As these both equal the area of the triangle, we can set them equal to each other. This is possible via a property known as transitivity (if a=b and b=c, then a=c)

[tex]\frac{25x}{2}=150[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2

25x=300

Divide both sides by 25

x=12 cm

So the height of the triangle is 12 cm

Hope this helps!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

G. 9/14 chance

H. You did not mention a blue color in the question.

Answer:

g) a) 11/14

f) 9/14

h) 12/14

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is just the amount of the specified object over the total amount of objects.

Amount of Red : 2

Amount of Orange: 5

Amount of Green: 3

Amount of Brown: 4

Total: 14

*Formula: (Specified Object)/(Total)*

F) Chances of Red or Orange or Green

=(2+5+4)/14

=11/14

G) NOT be orange

*Formula: (Total)-(Specified)/(Total)*

=(14-5)/14

=9/14

H) NOT blue or red

*Formula: (Total)-(Specified)/(Total)*

=14-(2+0) (*There is a 0 there because the question asked to solve for blue pencils as well, and there are 0 blue pencils*)

= 12/14

The diagram above shows a plan for a park. ABCD is a rectangle.
APB and DQC are semicircles centred at X and Y.
Given AB = 7 cm and AC = 25 cm.
Calculate the perimeter of the park in cm.​

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter of the park = 70 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the park = perimeter of the 2 semicircles + 2(length of the rectangle)

Perimeter = 2πr + 2(BC)

✔️Perimeter of the 2 semicircles = 2πr

Where,

radius (r) = ½(AB) = ½(7)

r = 3.5 cm

Perimeter = 2*π*3.5 = 7*π

Perimeter of the two semicircles = 21.9911486 ≈ 22 cm

✔️Find BC using Pythagorean theorem:

Thus,

BC = √(AC² - AB²)

AC = 25

AB = 7

BC = √(25² - 7²) = √576

BC = 24

✔️Perimeter of the park = perimeter of the 2 semicircles + 2(length of the rectangle)

Perimeter of the park = 22 + 2(24)

= 22 + 48

= 70 cm

tan(x) is the ratio of the opposite leg to the adjacent leg. The opposite leg of x's measure is 14, and the adjacent leg to x has a measure of 48. (It's not 50 since 50 is opposite the right angle, meaning that it's the hypotenuse.)

14 / 48 = 7 / 24. Simplest form is 7/24.
