Answer:
B
Explanation:
Slope = rise/run = -2/2 = -1
Answer:
x is equal to 24 and y is equal to 66.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the value of y, we first have to note that the unlabeled angle in the larger triangle, y and the 78 degree angle create a straight line. The unlabeled angle is equal to 36 since it and the other two angles equal 180. So we take that 36, 78 and y and can set that equal to 180.
36 + 78 + y = 180
114 + y = 180
y = 66
Now that we have that value, we can use y and the 90 degree angle to find x.
x + y + 90 = 180
x + 66 + 90 = 180
x + 156 = 180
x = 24

Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
By AA similarity, ΔABD ~ ΔCDE. So, corresponding sides are proportional.
AB/BD = CD/DE
x/12 = 4/6
x = 12(4/6)
x = 8
120 ft... a flat vertical line is 180 degrees, and since this is a 30,60,90 triangle, your equation is... 180-60=distance John is to the base
Speed = Distance / Time
Distance = Speed*Time
For this problem, we should bear in mind that current speed has an impact on the boat speed...
for upstream, the boat goes against the current, and so its speed is
U = V - C
where V is the speed of the boat
C is the current speed
for downstream, it will be:
D = V + C
Convert the problem into mathematical equations:
4D + 3U = 116
3D + 4U = 108
4(V+C) + 3(V-C) = 116
4V + 4C + 3V -3C =116
7V + C = 116
3(V+C) + 4(V-C) = 108
3V + 3C + 4V - 4C = 108
7V - C = 108
Solving the equations:
7V + C = 116
7V - C = 108
14V = 224
V = 16km/hr —-> speed of boat
to get C:
7(16) + C = 116
C = 4km/hr
