If the ratio of y to x is equal to 3 and the sum of y and x is 80, what is value of y

Mathematics

Answer:

y = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Step 1: Make sense of the given</h3>

"The ratio of y to x is 3"

This means that, y\div x=3

"The sum of y and x is 80"

This means,  x+y=80

<h3>Step 2: Make use of the facts</h3>

If y\div x=3, then y = (3*x).

We can plug this into the other equation by substitution:

x + (3 * x)=80

This simplifies to:

4x = 80

Which we can solve out and get:
x=20.

<h3>Step 3: Plug and Chug</h3>

We solved for x, but we need the value of y.

So, we go back to the equation we first derived: "y = (3*x)".

And now we substitute the value of x, into this.

y = (3 * (20))

By solving this out, we get:
y=60

So, the value of y is 60.

Lines k and n are perpendicular. If the slope of line k is -6, what is the slope of line n?
CaHeK987 [17]

Lines k and n are perpendicular

The slope of line k is -6

Fact: The product of slopes of two perpendicular lines = -1

So the slope of line n = -1 ÷ -6 = 1/6

The correct choice is 'D.'

Find the length of GI in the triangle below. Show your work.
love history [14]

Answer:

<u>The length of GI is 90.06 units</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

GH = 60 units

HI = 42 units

∠H = 123°

2. Using the Law of Cosines, we can find the length of GI, this way:

GI² = GH² + HI² - 2 * GH * HI * cos ∠H

Replacing with the real values:

GI² = 60² + 42² - 2 * 60 * 42 * cos ∠123°

GI² = 3,600 + 1,764 - 2 * 60 * 42 * -0.545

GI² = 3,600 + 1,764 - 2 * 60 * 42 * -0.545

GI² = 3,600 + 1,764 + 2,746.8

GI² = 8,110.8

<u>GI = √ 8,110.8 = 90.06 units</u>
