Answer 401975 by MathLover1(6634) About Me  on 2012-08-16 14:18:09 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
given:
angle x=72
find: the supplementary angle y
Supplementary angles are pairs of angles that add up to 180 degrees. Thus the supplement of an angle of x degrees is an angle of y=%28180-x%29 degrees.
y=%28180+-x%29...plug in x
y=%28180+-72%29
y=108degrees

Length-and-distance/637949: A 31-in. television has a 31 in. diagonal and a 18 in. width. What is the height of the 31-in. television?
1 solutions

Answer 401953 by MathLover1(6634) About Me  on 2012-08-16 12:36:52 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!

a diagonal, width, and a height form right triangle; so, you need to use Pythagorean theorem
let's
diagonal=d
width=w
height=h, then you have
d%5E2=h%5E2%2Bw%5E2.....solve for h
h%5E2=d%5E2-w%5E2...plug in values
h%5E2=%2831in%29%5E2-%2818in%29%5E2
h%5E2=961in%5E2-324in%5E2
h%5E2=637in%5E2
h=sqrt%28637in%5E2%29....use only positive rood (height could be only positive number)
h=25.24in%29

Linear_Algebra/637934: four-fifths of a number is 10 more than two-third of the number

1 solutions

Answer 401941 by MathLover1(6634) About Me  on 2012-08-16 09:12:25 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!

let's number be x
four-fifths of a number is %284%2F5%29x
and it is 10 more than two-third of the number %282%2F3%29x
so, you have
%284%2F5%29x=%282%2F3%29x%2B10.....both sides multiply by common denominator which is 15
15%284%2F5%29x=15%282%2F3%29x%2B10%2A15
cross%2815%293%284%2Fcross%285%291%29x=cross%2815%295%282%2Fcross%283%291%29x%2B150

You can put this solution on YOUR website!

Once you've learned to translate phrases into expressions and sentences into equations, you are ready to dive into word problems.
Translate each phrase into an algebraic expression means:
"the sum of 8 and y" translates to "8+%2B+y"
"x multiplied by 13" translates to "13x"
"the ratio of 9+more than x to x" translates to "%28x+%2B+9%29+%2F+x"

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y%2Fz=+192+%2F12.........->.......y=%28192%2F12%29z}
if yvaries directly as z, we have:
y+=+kz...first find k...->....k=192%2F12->......k=16
Now that we have the value of k, we can plug in the new value, and solve for the new value of y
if z=+17
y+=+16%2A17
y=272

36x%5E2-81=0...both sides divide by 9
36x%5E2%2F9-81%2F9=0%2F9
4x%5E2-9=0
%282x%29%5E2-3%5E2=0
%282x-3%29%282x%2B3%29=0

solutions:
%282x-3%29=0......->..2x=3....->..x=3%2F2
and
%282x%2B3%29=0......->..2x=-3....->..x=-3%2F2


Expressions-with-variables/637710: I need help on using point slope form to make an standard form equation. I have the equation of +y-%28-6%29=+1.3%28x-%28-15%29%29+ and cannot figure out how to make it into standard form.
Thanks, Sam

Standard Form:+Ax+%2B+By+=+C
+y-%28-6%29=+1.35%28x-%28-15%29%29+...first do all operations you need here
+y%2B6=+1.35%28x%2B15%29+
+y%2B6=+1.35x%2B20.25+...move 1.35x to the left and 6 to the right
+y-1.35x=+20.25-6+
+-1.35x%2By=+14.25+...........Standard Form
