look at the expression below. 1/2 (a+b) - (a-b)2. what is the value of the expression when a = 18 and b = 14?

A 32
B 12
C 8
D 0

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

distributive property goes first.

you get 6x-9=15

add 9 on both sides so 9 cancells out on the left side.

you get 6x=24

divide by 6 and you get x=4

The probability of the friend completing the new level in her first try is 22.5%

This is a concept that is used to talk about the likelihood or the chances of an event occuring.

For the digit 8, the frequency is 7

For the digit 9, the frequency is 11

The total number of frequencies is given as

10 + 9 + 6+ 7 + 8 + 12 + 4 + 6 + 7 + 11 = 80

7 + 11 = 18

Probability = 18/80

= 0.225 x 100

= 22.5%

Answer:

One is 89 , the other is 33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of 2 equations:

x + y = 122

x - 2y = 23        Subtracting:

0 + 3y = 99

y = 33.

So:

x + 33 = 122

x = 122 -33 = 89.

Answer:

first number= 89 and second number= 33

Step-by-step explanation:

here, let the first number be X and the second number be y,then

From the question,

x + y = 122 ---- eq i

x -2y = 23 ----- eq ii

From substitution method,

From eq i,

x + y = 122

or, x =122 - y

Now, putting the vale of x in eq ii,we get,

122 -y -2y = 23

or, -3y = 23-122

or, -3y = -99 (cut minus sign in both sides)

or, y=99/3

or, y = 33

Again, putting the value of y in eq i,we get,

x + 33 = 122

or, x= 122-33

or, x=89

Answer:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

AB represent the building. C represents the spot

The building forms right angle with the ground.

BC will be the hypotenuse and AB, AC are the legs

Use Pythagorean theorem,

AB² + AC² = BC²

AB² + 16² = 65²

AB² + 256 = 4225

          AB² = 4225 - 256

                 = 3969

          [tex]AB = \sqrt{3969} =\sqrt{63*63}[/tex]

AB = 63 m

height of the building = 63 m

Answer:

Given:

[tex]\begin{aligned} \textsf{Perimeter} & =\textsf{shorter leg + longer leg + hypotenuse}\\ & = (x+5)+[3(x+5)-1]+[2(x+5)+13]\\ & = x+5+3x+15-1+2x+10+13\\ & = 6x+42\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned} \textsf{Area} & =\dfrac12\textsf{(shorter leg)(longer leg)}\\ & =\dfrac12(x+5)[3(x+5)-1]}\\ & =\dfrac12(x+5)(3x+14)\\ & = \dfrac12(3x^2+29x+70)\\ & = \dfrac32x^2+\dfrac{29}{2}x+35 \end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned} \textsf{Area} & =2.5 \sf (Perimeter)\\ \implies \dfrac32x^2+\dfrac{29}{2}x+35 & =\dfrac52(6x+42)\\ 3x^2+29x+70 & =5(6x+42)\\ 3x^2+29x+70 & =30x+210\\ 3x^2 -x-140 & =0\\ 3x^2-21x+20x-140 & =0\\ 3x(x-7)+20(x-7) &=0\\ (x-7)(3x+20)& =0\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex](x-7)=0 \implies x=7[/tex]

[tex](3x+20)=0 \implies x=-\dfrac{20}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=-\dfrac{20}{3}[/tex] is not a viable solution as when inputting this into the formula for the shorter leg, it gives a negative value:

[tex]\textsf{Shorter leg}=-\dfrac{20}{3}+5=-\dfrac53[/tex]

As distance cannot be negative, this is not a viable solution.

When x = 7:

[tex]\textsf{Shorter leg}=7+5=12[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Longer leg}=3(7+5)-1=35[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Hypotenuse}=2(x+5)+13=37[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Perimeter}=6(7)+42=84[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{Area} & =\dfrac32(7)^2+\dfrac{29}{2}(7)+35=210[/tex]

Therefore, there is one viable solution.  This solution in the form (x, A) is  (7, 210)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2x+3

y=-3x+3

**This is what's on the image.**

You need to aline the two together.

2x+3 = -3x+3

Add 3x both sides

3x+2x+3=3

5x+3=3

Now subtract 3 from both sides

5x=3-3

x= 0

This should be a vertical line from (0,0) to above since there is no slope you should have a straight line that is vertical.

Answer:

Use points (0,12) and (1,20) on graphing paper or a program to find final answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the problem, I was unable to understand the equation so I am presuming the equation actually means y=8x+12

Whenever you graph a Linear Function you always need two points. The first point is always easy to acquire.

You can plug in any value for x, which will be your x cordinate and the output (solution) of the equation will be you y cordinate.

I'm plugging in 0 for X first.

y=8x+12

y=8(0) +12

y=12

We have our first point as (0,12)

Now you can plug in any other number for X other then Zero.

I choose 1 this time for X.

y=8x+12

y=8(1)+12

y=8+12

y=20

We now have our second point (1,20). Two points will be enough to graph this graph, you can graph these two points and then draw a line if on paper or use an application and get the line that way.

Answer:

Use the rise/run strategy to draw the line. Start at the y-intercept (0, 12), and count 8 up and 1 to the right to the point (1, 20). Then, draw a line through the points. Test the point (3,36) in the equation y = 8x + 12 to verify that the line is correct.
