The mistake is in Step 1. The solver should have also squared when squaring the other side of the equation.
<h3>Correctly solving</h3>
Gabrielle is x years old.
Felicia is 6 years older.....so Felicia is x + 6
the mom is twice as old as felicia...so the mom is 2(x + 6)
the aunt is x years older then mom....so the aunt (tanya) is 2(x + 6) + x
so Tanya/s age is :
2(x + 6) + x =
2x + 12 + x =
13x + 12 <===
Answer:
x = 38
∠P = 26º
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angle in a triangle is 180
x + (x + 78) + (x - 12) = 180
Combine like terms
3x + 66 = 180
Subtract 66 from both sides
3x = 114
Divide both sides by 3
x = 38
-----------------------
∠P = x - 12
∠P = 38 - 12
∠P = 26º
The answer is 47.5 feet. Hope I helped!
Answer:
The value of y is -16.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the missing coordinate, we can use the slope equation and plug in all known values.
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
6 = (y - 2)/(4 - 7)
6 = (y - 2)/-3
Now we can solve using cross multiplication.
y - 2 = -3*6
y - 2 = -18
y = -16
