Answer:
The triangles are similar.
Step-by-step explanation:
They share a common angle (∠S) and the ratio of the two sides is the same, i.e. SP/SQ = SR/ST

In the EXPLORE online library, the ratio of the number of novels to that of dictionaries is 2:3 and the total number of novels is 624. If Joe buys more novels and the ratio becomes 7:3, then how many novels have been bought in total?
Using a system of equations, it is found that 1530 more novels have been bought in total.
For the system, we have that:
x is the number of novels.y is the number of dictionaries.The ratio of the number of novels to that of dictionaries is 2:3, hence:
[tex]\frac{x}{y} = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]3x = 2y[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{3x}{2}[/tex]
Total number of novels is 624, hence:
[tex]x = 624[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{3}{2} \times 624 = 936[/tex]
Buys z more novels, and the ratio becomes [tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex], hence:
[tex]\frac{624 + z}{923} = \frac{7}{3}[/tex]
[tex]1872 + 3z = 6461[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{6461 - 1872}{3}[/tex]
[tex]z = 1530[/tex]
1530 more novels have been bought in total.

If x = 5-2√6, find the value of:
(i) x + 1/x
(ii) x² + 1/x²
Please solve ASAP
Answer:
x+(1/x) = 10 and x²+ (1/x²) = 98Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
x = 5-2√6
1/x = 1/(5-2√6)
The denominator = 5-2√6
The Rationalising factor of 5-2√6 = 5+2√6
On Rationalising the denominator then
⇛ 1/x = [1/(5-2√6)]×[(5+2√6)/5+2√6)]
⇛ 1/x = (5+2√6)/[5-2√6)(5+2√6)]
⇛ 1/x = (5+2√6)/[5²-(2√6)²]
Since (a+b)(a-b) = a²-b²
Where ,
a = 5 and b = 2√6⇛1/x = (5+2√6)/(25-24)
⇛ 1/x = (5+2√6)/1
⇛ 1/x = 5+2√6
Now,
x +(1/x)
⇛ 5-2√6+5+2√6
⇛ 5+5
⇛ 10
Therefore, x+(1/x) = 10.
On squaring both sides then
⇛ [x+(1/x)]² = 10²
⇛ x²+2(x)(1/x)+(1/x)² =100
⇛ x²+2+(1/x)² = 100
⇛ x²+(1/x²) = 100-2
⇛ x²+(1/x²) = 98
Therefore, x²+(1/x²) = 98.

A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 813 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Saturday. There were 63 more cheeseburger sold than burgers. How many hamburgers were sold on Saturday?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
375 hamburgers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h represent the number of hamburgers. Then h+63 is the number of cheeseburgers, and the combined total is ...
h +(h +63) = 813
2h = 813 -63 = 750
h = 750/2 = 375
375 hamburgers were sold on Saturday.
_____
Additional comment
In a "sum and difference" problem like this, the smaller number is half the difference between the sum and the difference. h = (813 -63)/2 = 375. This generic solution applies to all "sum and difference" problems.
Apply the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor.
6+30=6+30
6 + 30
The greatest common factor is 6, so take it out. We get...
6 (1 + 5)
Let's verify it.
6 (1 + 5) = 6 + 30
6(6) = 6 + 30

range of the function f(x) = -x^2 - 5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
if f(x) = 7(x-1) + 8 , what is rhe value of f(11) ?
Answer:
f(11)=78
Step-by-step explanation:
f(11)=7(11-1)+8
f(11)=77-7+8
f(11)=78
Answer:
F(11) = 78
Step-by-step explanation:
f(11) means that you would just have to replace “x” on the equation with 11 and then solve;
=> f(11) = 7(11 - 1) + 8
=> f(11) = 7(10) + 8
=> f(11) = 70 + 8
=> f(11) = 78
therefore the answe is 78

John buys a computer on sale for $450.00. He
pays $50.00 less than have the original price. How
much was the original price of the computer?
Write and solve an equation
Answer:
$450+$50= X
X=$500
Step-by-step explanation:
The sale price is $450.00, so you take that amount and $50.00 which the amount he paid less and add them both. We do this because we want to see the original price of the computer. If it mentioned the original price already and the amount $50.00 and asked the sail price instead, we would have to subtract to get the answer.
Here we have to add.
450+50=500
(add the dollar sign)
$450+$50=X
X=$500

what are the leading coefficient and degree of the polynomial?
Answer:
leading coefficient: 2degree: 7Step-by-step explanation:
The degree of a term with one variable is the exponent of the variable. The degrees of the terms (in the same order) are ...
6, 0, 7, 1
The highest-degree term is 2x^7. Its coefficient is the "leading" coefficient, because it appears first when the polynomial terms are written in decreasing order of their degree:
2x^7 -7x^6 -18x -4
The leading coefficient is 2; the degree is 7.

Additional comment
When a term has more than one variable, its degree is the sum of the exponents of the variables. The term xy, for example, is degree 2.

Coding the given algorithm in python 3, the greatest common divisor of the values (124 and 244) and (4424 and 2111) are 4 and 1 respectively.
The program implementation goes thus :

#if true interchange the Parameters and Recall the function
elif a == 0:
return b
elif a == 1:

elif((a%2 == 0)and(b%2==0)):
#even numbers leave no remainder when divided by 2, checks if a and b are even
return 2 * gcd(a/2, b/2)
elif((a%2 !=0) and (b%2==0)):
#checks if a is odd and B is even
return gcd(a, b/2)
else :

The least number of degree is 3 and the third root should be (4 - i) to make polynomial rational.
The polynomial is:
(x - 3)(x - (4 + i))(x - (4 + i)) = (x - 3)(x² -x(4 + i + 4 - i) + (4 + i)(4 - i)) = (x - 3)(x² - 8x + 16 - (-1)) = (x - 3)(x² - 8x + 17) = x³ - 8x² + 17x - 3x² + 24x - 51 = x³ - 11x² + 41x - 51Gene has a gasoline budget of $275 per month.
