Answer:

x = 25, y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll add a drawing of my own so that it's easier for me to explain, and for you to understand.  

Since line BC and line DE are parallel and line AE is being shared, angle ACB and angle CED will be the same. So the square will also be 3y.

Since line AB and line CD are parallel and line AE is being shared, angle CAB and angle ECD will be the same. So the heart will be 2x.

Now that we figured out two unknown angles, we can see that the two triangles share two angles with the same value. Since angles in a triangle add up to 180 (Added angles in every triangle are the same), the triangle shape (I drew) will be 4x.

We have a few clues to find the value of x and y.

1) 2x + 4x + 3y = 180 (all angles in a triangle add up to 180)

2) 3y + 2x = 180 - 100 (If you look near point C, we can see that 3y + 100 + 2x equals a flat line. A flat line equals 180)

We can use substitution. 3y + 2x can be replaced with 80.

So our new equation will be: 4x = 100

x = 25.

Now we can replace x with 25 in our second clue.

3y + 2(25) = 80

3y + 50 = 80

3y = 30

y = 10.

We can conclude that x = 25, and y = 10

Answer:

x = 25 and y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The <u>arrows</u> on the line segments mean the lines are parallel.

Therefore, the diagram shows two similar triangles, which means their <u>interior angles</u> are the <u>same size</u>.  (Refer to the attached diagram).

<u>Interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°</u>:

⇒ 2x + 4x + 3y = 180

⇒ 6x + 3y = 180

⇒ 3(2x + y) = 180

⇒ 2x + y = 60

⇒ 2x = 60 - y

<u>Angles on a straight line sum to 180°</u>:

⇒ 3y + 100 + 2x = 180

⇒ 2x + 3y = 80

⇒ 2x = 80 - 3y

<u>Substitute</u> the first equation into the second equation, and <u>solve for y</u>:

⇒ 60 - y = 80 - 3y

⇒ 60 + 2y = 80

⇒ 2y = 20

⇒ y = 10

<u>Substitute</u> the found value of y into one of the equations and <u>solve for x</u>:

⇒ 2x = 60 - 10

⇒ 2x = 50

⇒ x = 25

Therefore, x = 25 and y = 10.

Answer:

12x + 18y + 6z + 4x - 4z

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression : 3(4x + 6y + 2z) + 4(x – z)

To eliminate the parenthesis ; we use the distributive property :

3(4x + 6y + 2z) + 4(x – z) becomes ;

3*4x + 3*6y + 3*2z + 4*x + 4*-z

12x + 18y + 6z + 4x - 4z

Hence,

12x + 4x + 18y + 6z - 4z

16x + 18y + 2z

What is the y-intercept for the below inequality?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The correct answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the y-intercept, you need to first solve the inequality for y.

5x - 3y ≤ 15

-3y ≤ -5x + 15

y ≥ 5/3x - 5

Now we look at the constant at the end. Since that constant is -5, we know C to be the answer.

Make the indicated trigonometric substitution in the given algebraic expression and simplify(x-25)/x = Sin y0
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

x = 25 /(1 − sin(y )) and y ≠ π/2  +2πn

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve and simplify for x,

(x − 25 )/ x  = sin(y)

Let's multiply both sides by x

((x − 25 )/x) *x= sin(y)*x

Then,

x − 25 = sin(y) * x

Let's add 25 to both sides

x − 25 + 25 = sin(y) * x + 25

If simplify again,

x = sin(y) * x + 25

Then we need subtract sin y x from both sides

x − sin(y) * x = sin (y)* x + 25 − sin (y)* x

It will equal:

x − sin (y)* x = 25

Factor x−sin(y) x: x(1−sin(y) ), then we get:

x (1 − sin(y)) = 25

Finally we need divide both sides by 1 − sin(y) ; y ≠π /2 + 2πn

And it will give us this equation:

x = 25 /(1 − sin(y )) and y ≠ π/2  +2πn
