If AC is parallel to DE, find X

Mathematics
1 answer:
UNO [17]1 year ago
8 0

Answer: x = 50

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of alternative interior angles and the angle sum theorem.

<u>Alternative interior angles</u> are angles that are formed inside the two parallel lines, and the values are equal.

The <u>angle sum theorem</u> implies that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°

If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below or let me know.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given information:</u>

AC ║ DE

∠ABC = 85°

∠A = 135°

<u>Find the value of ∠BAC</u>

∠A + ∠BAC = 180° (Supplementary angle)

(135°) + ∠BAC = 180°

∠BAC = 45°

<u>Find the value of ∠BCA</u>

∠ABC + ∠BAC + ∠BCA = 180° (Angle sum theorem)

(85°) + (45°) + ∠BCA = 180°

∠BCA = 50°

<u>Find the value of x (∠EBC)</u>

∠EBC ≅ ∠BCA (Alternative interior angles)

Since, ∠BCA = 50°

Therefore, ∠EBC = 50°

\Large\boxed{x=50}

Hope this helps!! :)

The length of a rectangle is three more than twice the width. The perimeter is 96. What are the dimensions? ​
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Width =15

Length =33

Step-by-step explanation:

Take width as x

And length as 2x+3

Perimeter as 96

Formula of the perimeter of a rectangle is 2l+2w

X+×+2×+3+2×+3=96

6x+6=96

6x=96-6

6×=90

X=15

Width =x and x =15 so width =15 while length =33

The brand manager for a brand of toothpaste must plan a campaign designed to increase brand recognition. He wants to first deter
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

He must survey 123 adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

Assume that a recent survey suggests that about 87​% of adults have heard of the brand.

This means that \pi = 0.87

90% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

How many adults must he survey in order to be 90​% confident that his estimate is within five percentage points of the true population​ percentage?

This is n for which M = 0.05. So

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.05 = 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.87*0.13}{n}}

0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.645\sqrt{0.87*0.13}

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645\sqrt{0.87*0.13}}{0.05}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.645\sqrt{0.87*0.13}}{0.05})^2

n = 122.4

Rounding up:

He must survey 123 adults.

PLEASE HELP!!! I REALLY NEED SOMEONE TO ANSWER THIS I HAVE ATTACHED A PICTURE
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

2.3 hours, or 2 hours & 18 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

we are trying to find h when d is 56.68, so I replaced d with 56.68

56.68=24.6h+0.1\\

subtract 0.1 from both sides

56.58=24.6h

divide both sides by 24.6

2.3=h
