Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is isosceles, meaning that the two base angles (x + 20) are congruent. We can then create an equation that states: (x + 20) + (x + 20) + 3x = 180. Simplifying this, we get 5x + 40 = 180. We can then use reverse order of operations to solve it. Subtract 40 from both sides to get 5x = 140. We will then divide both sides by 5 to get x by itself, getting us the equation x = 28.

Answer:

x=28

Step-by-step explanation:

angle b and angle c are the same measure because it is a iso triangle.

you know triangle sum is 180 so 3x+2(x+20)=180. simplify it to 5x=140

divide both sides by 5

x=28

For the equation y = -3x2, find:<br> a) Domain<br> b) Range

GenaCL600 [577]

Domain s the numbers you can use
range is the result from putting the domain in

domain is all real numbers
range, see that -3x^2, all things become positive then negative
so highest thing would be at x=0, so then the highest thing in the range is 0
test another
x=3
the result is -27
0>-27

range is y≤0

domain=all real number
range is all real numbers less than or equal to 0
in interval notation

D=(⁻∞,∞)
R=(⁻∞,0]

In a race 19 out of 50 runners finished in fewer than 30 minutes. What percent of the runners finished in fewer than 30 minutes?

Firlakuza [10]

38% of them finished in fewer than 30 minutes

The equavilant fraction is 19/50

50×2= 100
19×2= 38

Hope this helps! :)

Write the equation of line AB in slope-intercept form, given the points A(0,5) and B(-5,-10) . In your final answer, include all

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

y = 3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, find the slope between the pair of points. Use the slope formula $m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ . Substitute the x and y values of points A and B into the formula and simplify:

$m = \frac{(-10)-(5)}{(-5)-(0)} \\m = \frac{-10-5}{-5-0} \\m = \frac{-15}{-5} \\m = 3$

So, the slope is 3.

2) Now, identify the y-intercept of the line, or the point at which the line intersects the y-axis. All points on the y-axis have an x-value of 0. We're told that (0,5) is a point the line intersects, and since it has an x-value of 0, that must be the y-intercept.

3) Using slope-intercept format, represented by the equation $y = mx + b$ , write the equation of the line. Remember that the number in place of $m$ , or the coefficient of the x-term, is the slope. So, substitute 3 for $m$ . Also, remember that $b$ represents the y-intercept of a line, so substitute 5 in its place, too. This gives the following answer:
