If A+D=117kg , A+M=88kg and M+D=161kg whats there total weight

thx in advance

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Think of A as a constant - with D it's 117 and with M it's 88

So the difference between D and M is 29   (117-88)

We also know that M + D = 161

Let's substitute in the problem  We will leave M equal to M and rewrite D as M+29 since it is 29 kg heavier.
M + M + 29 -161  or 2M +29 = 161 Subtracting 29 from both sides we get 2M=122
Now divide both sides two and get M=61
Since D is M+29 it is 61+29 or 100kg
Finally A + M = 88   A + 61 - 88   Subtract 61 from both sides and get A=17
So there you have it:
A=17kg
M=61kg
D=100kg and it works in all three equation in your problem (try it to check)


Answer 2
Answer: There's actually a really slick solution to this problem.Add all three equations. This results in 2(A+M+D)=366. Dividing by two, we see that A+M+D=183, so 183 is the total of the weights.

There's a 8ft. long board and the carpenter cut off 3 1/2 and 2 1/3.

So first we need to add 3 1/2 and 2 1/3 because the carpenter cut them off the 8ft. long board.

3+2=5 because it's a whole number. 1/2+1/3= 2/6+3/6= 5/6
5 5/6

Now we subtract
8-5 5/6=
7 6/6- 5 5/6= 2 1/6ft.
2 1/6ft. is what remains of the 8ft. board.

the vertices of a triangle at A(5,-4) ,B(7,0) ,and C(1,-2). if the triangle is a right triangle, which vertex is the right angle

Answers

We can find the right angle of the triangle by finding the slope of the sides .

Any right angle makes an angle of 90 degrees and the lines are perpendicular .

For perpendicular lines product of slopes is -1.

In other words the slopes have opposite signs and are reciprocal .

Let us find the slopes of AB,BC,CA.

Slope of two points can be found by the difference in y values divided by different in x values

Slope of AB=(0+4)/(7-5) =(4)/(2) =2

Slope of BC=(-2-0)/(1-7) =(-2)/(-6) = 3

Slope of CA=(-2+4)/(1-5) =(2)/(-4) =(-1)/(2)

The slopes of AB and CA are reciprocal of each other with opposite signs or we can say their product is -1 so they are perpendicular.

Angle A is the common angle to these sides so we say angle A is the right angle

Answer:

hey

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-h)²+(y-k)²=r²

here (h,k) =(0,0)

Equation of circle will be

x²+y²= r²

Answer:

We know that the general equation for a circle is ( x - h )^2 + ( y - k )^2 = r^2, where ( h, k ) is the center and r is the radius.
