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 arrows on the line segments mean the lines are parallel.

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

Interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°:

⇒ 2x + 4x + 3y = 180

⇒ 6x + 3y = 180

⇒ 3(2x + y) = 180

⇒ 2x + y = 60

⇒ 2x = 60 - y

Angles on a straight line sum to 180°:

⇒ 3y + 100 + 2x = 180

⇒ 2x + 3y = 80

⇒ 2x = 80 - 3y

Substitute the first equation into the second equation, and solve for y:

⇒ 60 - y = 80 - 3y

⇒ 60 + 2y = 80

⇒ 2y = 20

⇒ y = 10

Substitute the found value of y into one of the equations and solve for x:

⇒ 2x = 60 - 10

⇒ 2x = 50

⇒ x = 25

Therefore, x = 25 and y = 10.

Pedro bought a skateboard last week. The list price of the skateboard was $64.90. He has a 20% coupon. He has to pay 8.5%

Lapatulllka [165]

Take the original price and times it by .8 (you could times it by .2 and then subtract from the original price but multiplying it by .8 is much easier) 64.9x.8= 51.92 take your discounted price and multiply it by 1.085 to account for the sales tax (you multiply by 1.085 to account for the price of the item and the tax you could times it by .085 and then add it on to the price of the item but this way it shortens the amount of steps needed) 51.92x1.085= 56.3332
Round to the nearest cent
Answer=$56.33

Transformations I need help on this worksheet please.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 2

As far as I can see, you got it right. The general transformation for 90 ccw is

(x,y) ===> (-y, x)

What that means is for the x you put in -y changing the sign to the opposite and for the y you put in x and this time you leave the sign alone . The transformation is shown in the left hand diagram.

The two tables are shown below.

Original

(1,4)
(1,2)
(3,2)
(3,5)

The transformed table is

(-4,1)
(-2,1)
(-2,3)
(-5,3)
(-4,1) This is just to let the program know to close the figure For some reason this did not have lines and if I delete it and put the lines in, I won't be able to upload the new diagram.

===========

Four

This one transforms from (x,y) to (-x,-y) which means where you see an x, you put a - x and where you see a y, you put a minus y. It is the middle frame.

Original

(-4,3)
(0,3)
(-2,0)
(-4,3) Here again, this is just to close the figure.

The transformed figure in red I think is

(4,-3)
(0,-3
(2,0)
(4,-3) And this closes the figure as well.

==========

Six

The diagram is on the right

Reflection about the y axis. Here the transformation is (x,y) ====> (-x,y) notice the ys don't change.

(-3,0)
(-5,-2)
(-1,-2)

There is no closure.

In the triangle shown we can find the angle θ as follows calculator

Xelga [282]

Given a right triangle with hypothenus of measure 34, the side opposite the angle θ of measure 30, and the side adjacent the angle theta of measure 16.

$\sin\theta= \frac{opposite}{hypothenuse} = \frac{30}{34} = \frac{15}{17} \\ \\ \Rightarrow \theta=\sin^{-1}\left( \frac{15}{17} \right) \\ \\ \\ \cos\theta= \frac{adjacent}{hypothenuse} = \frac{16}{34} = \frac{8}{17} \\ \\ \Rightarrow \theta=\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{8}{17} \right) \\ \\ \\ \tan\theta= \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{30}{16} = \frac{15}{8} \\ \\ \Rightarrow \theta=\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{15}{8} \right)$

Find the inequality represented by the graph.

Mkey [24]

Answer:

y > 4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y-intercept is at -2

slope is rise by 4, run by 1

if you don't know where to shade, select a point and plug it in to see if T or F

example (0, 0)

is 0 > 4(0) - 2

is 0 > -2 True, so shade to the left because this is where (0,0) is
