As with any triangle, the sum of angles is 180°.

(a)
(x -5) +(3x +30) +35 = 180 . . . . . sum of angles is 180
4x +60 = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
4x = 120 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 60
x = 30 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

(b)
Angle A = x -5 = 30 -5 = 25

Angle B = 3x +30 = 3*30 +30 = 120

Can somebody plz help answer both word problems correctly thanks! And show the steps on how u got the answer for both question :

Greeley [361]

Answer:

1. 24th 2. 140

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To figure out this problem, you would have to list the multiples of both 6 and 8.

6 (6, 12, 18, 24)

8 (8, 16, 24) because both have 24, that would be the answer.

2. There are 8 windows, all with the same perimeter. Each window's perimeter is 17.5 (17 1/2) so 8 windows would be 140 ft. (17.50 x 8 = 140)

muminat

There are infinite equivalent expressions. Here are some:

1/5(m-100)

20(1/100m-1)

1/5m-(4•5)

If you expand any of these or any of the terms, you will get an equivalent expression.

The point P(1,1/2) lies on the curve y=x/(1+x). (a) If Q is the point (x,x/(1+x)), find the slope of the secant line PQ correct

lukranit [14]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given the equation of the curve

$y=\dfrac{x}{1+x}$

Point $P\left(1,\dfrac{1}{2}\right)$ lies on the curve.

Point $Q\left(x,\dfrac{x}{1+x}\right)$ is an arbitrary point on the curve.

The slope of the secant line PQ is

$\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{\frac{x}{1+x}-\frac{1}{2}}{x-1}=\dfrac{\frac{2x-(1+x)}{2(x+1)}}{x-1}=\dfrac{\frac{2x-1-x}{2(x+1)}}{x-1}=\\ \\=\dfrac{\frac{x-1}{2(x+1)}}{x-1}=\dfrac{x-1}{2(x+1)}\cdot \dfrac{1}{x-1}=\dfrac{1}{2(x+1)}\ [\text{When}\ x\neq 1]$
