In Isosceles Triangle WXY, XY Is 13 Inches In Length And WY Is 10 Inches. What Is The Length Of XZ? Answer

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  12 inches

=============================================================

Explanation:

Notice the double tickmarks on segments WZ and ZY. This tells us the two segments are the same length. Let's say they are m units long, where m is a placeholder for a positive number.

That would mean m+m = 2m represents the length of segment WY, but that's equal to 10 as the diagram shows. We have 2m = 10 lead to m = 5 after dividing both sides by 2.

We've shown that WZ and ZY are 5 units long each. In short, we just cut that length of 10 in half.

-----------------------------------

Let's focus on triangle XYZ. This is a right triangle with legs XZ = unknown and ZY = 5. The hypotenuse is XY = 13.

We'll use the pythagorean theorem to find XZ

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(XZ)^2 + (ZY)^2 = (XY)^2

(XZ)^2 + (5)^2 = (13)^2

(XZ)^2 + 25 = 169

(XZ)^2 = 169-25

(XZ)^2 = 144

XZ = sqrt(144)

XZ = 12

Segment XZ is 12 inches long.

A high school drama department sold 238 tickets for their performance.
o   An adult ticket cost $6.75.
o   A student ticket cost $3.50.
o   The high school drama department collected $1,252.25 in ticket sales.
How many student tickets were sold? 

Answers

Let x = number of student tickets
Ley y = number of nonstudent tickets

then we know that the total number of tickets is 537

so

x + y = 537

if we multiply the cost of a ticket by the number of tickets we can also get the total $

3.2x + 5.9y = 2185.5

now we have two equations and two unknowns and we can find the value for these unknowns

lets use substitution

x + y = 537 that means that x = 537-y

substitute this value in the second equation

3.2(537-y) + 5.9y = 2185.5

1718.4 - 3.2y +5.9y = 2185.5

1718.4 + 2.7y = 2185.5

2.7y = 2185.5 - 1718.4

2.7y = 467.1

y = 173

x + y =537

x + 173 = 537

x = 364

Answer:

$6.75 + $3.50 = X

X ÷ $1,252.25

Step-by-step explanation:

$6.75 + $3.50 = $10.25

$10.25 ÷ $1,252.25 = 0.00818526652

Two groups of friends go to a basketball game. Each group plans to share snacks. The first group buys 5 drinks and 6 pretzels for 28$. The second group buys 2 drinks and 4 pretzels for 16$. Creat two equations in standard form you can use to solve this system​

Answers

Answer:

the price for one pretzel was $1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

d for drinks

p for pretzel

3d + 3p = 9

3d = 9 -3p

d = 3 - p

replace d = 3 - 9 into 4d + 2p = 8.5

4d + 2p = 8.5

4(3 - p) + 2p = 8.5

12 - 4p + 2p = 8.5

-2p = 8.5 - 12

-2p = -3.5

p = 1.75
