So first you need to combine like terms:
7b -2/5 = 6b - 7/5
+2/5 +2/5
7b = 6b -5/5
7b = 6b -1
-6b -6b
b=-1

Geoffrey is trying to earn $50 to buy a video game. He has saved $14.25. He earns $3.75 per hour cleaning windows with his uncle

Dafna1 [17]

Yes he will be able to buy the game that is $50 because: 14.25 + 3.75y + 6.50x = 50 14.25 + 3.75(3) + 6.50(4) = 50 14.25 + 11.25 + 26 = 50 51.50 = 50

What affects the size of an angle? A. The length of its sides B. The direction of one side C. Its orientation in space D. The am

MrMuchimi

Answer:

<h3>D. The amount of rotation of one side.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to explain the statement " What affects the size of an angle? ".

Given options are

A. The length of its sides

B. The direction of one side

C. Its orientation in space

D. The amount of rotation of one side.

The correct option would be :

<h3>D. The amount of rotation of one side.</h3>

<em>Because as the one side rotated, it makes a greater or smaller arc between the two lines. That would affects the size of an angle. </em>

Determine whether the lines are parallel, intersect, or coincide. x-5y=0, y+1=1/5(x+5)

MAXImum [283]

<u>Answer-</u>

<em>The lines are two </em><em>coinciding lines</em><em> or the </em><em>same lines</em><em>.</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

The given line equations are

the first one,

$\Rightarrow x-5y=0$

the second one,

$\Rightarrow y+1=\dfrac{1}{5}(x+5)\\\\\Rightarrow 5y+5=x+5\\\\\Rightarrow 5y=x\\\\\Rightarrow x-5y=0$

As we know two line equations $A_1x+B_1y+C_1=0$ and $A_2x+B_2y+C_2=0$ will be,

Parallel if, $\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{B_1}{B_2}$
Coincide if, $\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{B_1}{B_2}=\dfrac{C_1}{C_2}$
Intersect if, $\dfrac{A_1}{A_2}\neq \dfrac{B_1}{B_2}$

As here,

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{A_1}{A_2}=\dfrac{B_1}{B_2}=\dfrac{C_1}{C_2}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{1}=\dfrac{-5}{-5}$

(C₁ and C₂ aren't considered as they are 0)

Therefore, the lines are two coinciding lines or the same lines.

What is the complimentary angle of 72 degrees

Irina18 [472]

Answer: 18°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles are any two angles whose sum is 90 degrees. Hence, if angles x and y are complimentary, we can say

x + y = 90°

Therefore, the complimentary angle of 72° is obtained by subtracting 72° from 90°

i.e 90° - 72° = 18°

Thus, the complimentary angle of 72° is 18°
