Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hours Nick does the job alone to be x - 3 hours
Hence, in 1 hour, Nick has done 1/x - 3
Together they complete the job in 9 hours
Hence, let's represent the job as 1
9/x + 9/x - 3 = 1
Multiply through by (x)(x-3)
9(x- 3) + 9(x) = 1
9x - 27 + 9x = (x)(x-3)
-27 = x² - 3x
x² - 3x +27 = 0
N = x/y because its in the middle
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
Solve
Substitute in
Open bracket
Collect like terms
Divide both sides by 2
Substitute in
First let’s try to cancel out the x
5x + -5x = 0
Add the y and the numbers together
-3y + -2y = -5y
26 + -16 = 10
-5y = 10
y = -2
Use y=-2 in one of the equations
-3(-2) + 5x = 26
6 + 5x = 26
5x = 20
X = 4
So
Y= -2
X= 4

The correct answer is D. Since the polygons are /similar/ and not /congruent/, C is not necessarily true.
Hope this helps.
