4/15
4/6 = 20/30 and 2/5 = 12/30 so 20 - 12 = 8 or 8/30 which can be rounded to 4/15

In this figure what is m 5?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

m<5 = 95 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first find m<1

=> m<1 = 180-85

=> m<1 = 95 degrees

Since,

m<1 = m<5 (Corresponding angles)

So,

m<5 = 95 degrees

Which of the following equations represents the perpendicular bisector of WX graphed below?

kotykmax [81]

The coordinates of the 2 given points are W(-5, 2), and X(5, -4).

First, we find the midpoint M using the midpoint formula:

$\displaystyle{ M_{WX}= (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )= (\frac{-5+5}{2}, \frac{2+(-4)}{2} )=(0, -1).$

Nex, we find the slope of the line containing M, perpendicular to WX. We know that if m and n are the slopes of 2 parallel lines, then mn=-1.

The slope of WX is $\displaystyle{ m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \frac{2-(-4)}{-5-5}= \frac{6}{-10}= -\frac{3}{5}$ .

Thus, the slope n of the perpendicular line is $\displaystyle{ \frac{5}{3}$ .

The equation of the line with slope $\displaystyle{ n= \frac{5}{3}$ containing the point M(0, -1) is given by:

$\displaystyle{ y-(-1)=\frac{5}{3}(x-0)$

$\displaystyle{ y+1= \frac{5}{3}x$

$\displaystyle{ 3y+3=5x$

$\displaystyle{ 5x-3y-3=0$

Answer: 5x-3y-3=0

#20 please help me with this Austin’s and an explanation please

Answer:

10 2/15 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a candle that is 11 2/5 inches tall

It burns 1 1/8 inches per hour. We need to divide to see how long the candle will last

11 2/5 ÷ 1 1/8

I will convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions

11 2/5 = (5*11+2)/5 = 57/5

1 1/8 = (8*1+1)/8 = 9/8

57/5 ÷ 9/8

Copy dot flip

57/5 * 8/9

456/45

Now we change it back to a mixed number

45 goes into 456 10 times with 6 left over

10 6/45

This simplifies to 10 2/15

Let the equation C= 2.32 N + 34,180 represent the cost of raising a child, C on an income, N. If the Corlone family has an incom

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

$126,980

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation C = 2.32N + 34,180 where 'C' is the cost of raising a child and 'N' is the income. If the Corlone family has an income of $40,000, you can use this value for 'N' and solve for 'C':

C = 2.32(40,000) + 34,180

C = 92,800 + 34,180

C = $126,980
