The value of x so that lines s and t are parallel is 12

<h3 /><h3>How to find angles involving parallel lines?</h3>

The angle are alternate exterior angles.

Therefore, alternate exterior angle theorem states that when two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, then the exterior angles formed on either side of the transversal are equal.

Hence,

7x - 20 = 4x + 16

7x - 4x= 16 + 20

3x = 36

x = 36 / 3

x = 12

Therefore, the value of x is 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

G(x) = - x^2 + 10x

a + G(a) = a - a^2 + 10a = - a^2 + 11a or 11a - a^2 or a(11 - a)

1/G(a) = 1/(10a - a^2) = 1/a(10 - a)

Tommy is purchasing items from an online store. The store charges $6 shipping and handling for each package. Write an expression

faust18 [17]

Answer:

The expression to represent the total shipping costs for x package is 6x.

Tommy will pay $ 12 in shipping and handling for 2 packages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the shipping and handling charge for 1 package = $ 6

So, by using the elementary method, the shipping and handling charge for x package is $ 6x.

Hence, the required expression to represent the total shipping costs for x package is 6x.

For 2 package, x=2

So, the shipping and handling charge for 2 package

=6x2

=12.

So, Tommy will pay $ 12 in shipping and handling for 2 packages.

A. A newborn red panda weighs 100 grams. A

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

$y=100\cdot (1.07)^d$

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the expression to represent how much you would expect a cub to weigh $d$ days after it's born as exponential growth function $y=a\cdot b^d,$ where $a$ is the initial panda's weight and $b$ is the rate of growth.
