He donated $285 to the salvation army.
The first thing to do is solve for "x". The equation would be {2(3x+60)}+5x+100=550. 
Then, you would multiply 2 with 3x and 60. Your new equation would be 5x+120+5x+100=550. 
Next, you would combine like terms. This means to combine the terms that are similar. In this case, it would be the whole numbers and the numbers with the variable. Your new equation would be 10x+220=550. 
After that, you subtract 220 on both sides of the equal sign. This makes the equation 10x=330. 
Then, you divide ten on both sides of the equal sign, giving you x=33.
The second things to is replace the x with 33. The amount for the salvation army is 5x+120. Replacing 33 with x, your final equation will be 165+120=$285.

Have a great day!!! :)

By using trigonometric relations, we will see that x = 9.97°.

<h3>How to find the missing angle?</h3>

First, we need to find the bottom cathetus of the smaller triangle, we will use the relation:

Tan(θ) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus).

Where:

  • θ = 26°
  • Adjacent cathetus = k
  • Opposite cathetus  = 55ft.

Replacing that we get:

Tan(26°) = 50ft/k

Solving this for k, we get:

k = 55ft/tan(26°) = 112.8 ft

Now, we can see that the longer triangle adds 200ft to this cathetus, so now we will have:

  • angle = x
  • opposite cathetus = 55ft
  • adjacent cathetus = 112.8ft + 200ft = 312.8ft.

Then we have:

Tan(x) = (55ft/312.8ft)

Using the inverse tangent function in both sides, we get:

x = Atan(55ft/312.8ft) = 9.97°

MATH HELP!!!!!<br><br> If y = 15 when x = 2, what is the value of x when y = 7?
Ede4ka [16]

<u>Direct Variation:</u>  \frac{y}{x} = k

\frac{15}{2} = k

when y = 7:      \frac{7}{x} = \frac{15}{2}

14 = 15x

\frac{14}{15} = x

<u>Inverse variation:</u>   y*x = k

15 * 2 = k

30 = k

when y = 7:      7 * x = 30

x = \frac{30}{7}

I SPENT 50 POINTS ON THIS, PLEASE HELP
Anestetic [448]

In the figure, we can consider that the base is the side that mesures 12 in and that the height is the side that measures 15 in, since that sides are perpendicular. So, we just need to use the given formula:

A = \dfrac{bh}{2}\Longrightarrow A = \dfrac{12\cdot15}{2}\Longrightarrow A=6\cdot15\Longrightarrow \boxed{A = 90~\text{in}^2}

Hence, the area of the triangle is 90 in² (B).

Sketch the general shape of each function. Then state the end behavior of the function.
nikdorinn [45]
Both the general shape of a polynomial and its end behavior are heavily influenced by the term with the largest exponent. The most complex behavior will be near the origin, as all terms impact this behavior, but as the graph extends farther into positive and/or negative infinity, the behavior is almost totally defined by the first term. When sketching the general shape of a function, the most accurate method (if you cannot use a calculator) is to solve for some representative points (find y at x= 0, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20). If you connect the points with a smooth curve, you can make projections about where the graph is headed at either end.
 End behavior is given by:
1. x^4. Terms with even exponents have endpoints at positive y ∞ for positive and negative x infinity. 
2. -2x^2. The negative sign simply reflects x^2 over the x-axis, so the end behavior extends to negative y ∞ for positive and negative x ∞. The scalar, 2, does not impact this.
3. -x^5. Terms with odd exponents have endpoints in opposite directions, i.e. positive y ∞ for positive x ∞ and negative y ∞ for negative x ∞. Because of the negative sign, this specific graph is flipped over the x-axis and results in flipped directions for endpoints.
4. -x^2. Again, this would originally have both endpoints at positive y ∞ for positive and negative x ∞, but because of the negative sign, it is flipped to point towards negative y ∞.

A planet's radius is approximately 1,534 mi. About two-thirds of the planet's surface is covered by water.
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

ok so the earth radius is 1534mi so if that is the radius than the area is 7.39×10^6so then you divide that into 3 pieces so each piece would be 2,463,333.3333 the nearest million would be 2,000,000
