What is the value of y?

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

y = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets make an equation to represent the sum of the angles:

We know that the sum of angles of triangles equals 180 degrees. So based on this knowledge, the equation is :

2y + y + 10 + 50 = 180

Now we simplify:

2y + y = 3y

10 + 50 = 60

So our new equation is 3y + 60 = 180

Now all we have to do is simplify:

3y + 60 = 180

3y + 60 -60 = 180 - 60

3y = 120

3y / 3 = 120 / 3

y = 40

So the answer is 40 hope this helped

Two trains start from Fort Worth traveling at the same speed. The trip for Train W takes 20 hours, while the trip for Train Z ta

MrMuchimi

Answer:

The equation that best models this situation is :

b. $\frac{x}{20}=\frac{x+400}{25}$

Distance traveled by Train W = 1600 miles

Distance traveled by Train Z = 2,000 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken for Train W to complete a trip = 20 hours

Time taken for Train Z to complete a trip = 25 hours

The city Train Z is traveling to is 400 miles farther away than the city Train W is traveling to.

both trains have same speeds and start from same location.

To find the distance in total each train travels.

Solution:

Let length of the trip of Train W be = $x$ miles

Speed of Train W can be given as :

⇒ $\frac{Distance}{Time}$

⇒ $\frac{x}{20}\ miles/h$

So, the length of the trip of Train Z will be = $(x+400)$ miles

Speed of Train Z can be given as :

⇒ $\frac{Distance}{Time}$

⇒ $\frac{x+400}{25}\ miles/h$

Since the speeds are same, so the equation to find $x$ can be given as:

⇒ $\frac{x}{20}=\frac{x+400}{25}$

Solving for $x$

Multiplying both sides by 100 to remove fractions.

⇒ $100\times \frac{x}{20}=100\times \frac{x+400}{25}$

⇒ $5x=4(x+400)$

Using distribution.

⇒ $5x=4x+1600$

Subtracting both sides by $4x$

⇒ $5x-4x=4x-4x+1600$

⇒ $x=1600$

Thus, Distance traveled by Train W = 1600 miles

Distance traveled by Train Z = $1600+400$ = 2,000 miles

Cynthia Besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 1919 ft wide and 2727 ft long. She wants to leave a uniform strip of floor a

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The dimension of the rug would be 17 ft × 9 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

length of the room = 27 ft.

width of the room = 19 ft.

suppose, she leaves a uniform strip of x ft. around the rug.

So,

The length of rug = (27-2x)ft.

Width of rug= (19-2x)ft.

∴ Area of the rug= length×width

$= (27-2x)(19-2x)$

$= 513-54x-38x+4x^2$

$= 513-92x+4x^2$

According to the question,

$513-92x+4x^2=153$

$513-92x+4x^2-153=0$ ( subtract 153 both sides)

$4x^2-92x+360=0$

$4(x^2-23x+90)=0$

$x^2-23x+90=0$

$x^2-(18+5)x+90=0$ ( Middle term splitting)

$x^2-18x-5x+90=0$

$x(x-18)-5(x-18)=0$

$(x-5)(x-18)=0$

$x-5=0$ or $x-18=0$ ( zero product property)

$x=5$ or $x=18$

if x=18, dimension would be negative ( Not possible)

Thus, x= 5

Hence,

length of rug= 27-10=17 ft.

width of rug= 19-10=9 ft.
