Answer:

X=20. Our x coordinate is 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based from the given slope of 1/2 and a y-intercept of -6, our equation of a line is y=x/2 -6. To remove the fraction we can multiply the equation by 2 to get 2y=x-12. Using this substitute the value of y coordinate 4.

2(4)= x-12

8+12 =x

X=20.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since the line has a slope of 1/2, the x coefficient of the line is 1/2. Since the y intercept is -6, we have the equation of the line

x/2 - 6 = y

Since in this case y = 4, we have

x/2 - 6 = 4

x/2 = 10

x = 20

So the x coordinate is 20 when the y coordinate is 4.

iii) (b)

iv) (a)

ii) 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

i) 2x+x+3x=180°

x=30°

ii) x+110=180

x=70

iii) x+2x+30°=180

x=50°

iv) 2x+15°+45°+x=180

3x+60°=180

x=40°

ii) 2x+5+25=180°

2x+30°=180°

x=75°

the measure: x+5°= 75°+5°=80°

20 people applied for a job. Everyone either has a school certificate or diploma or even both. If 14 have school certificates an

STatiana [176]

Given:

Either has a school certificate or diploma or even both = 20 people

Having school certificates = 14

Having diplomas = 11

To find:

The number of people who have a school certificate only.

Solution:

Let A be the set of people who have school certificates and B be the set of people who have diplomas.

According to the given information, we have

$n(A)=14$

$n(B)=11$

$n(A\cup B)=20$

We know that,

$n(A\cup B)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cap B)$

$20=14+11-n(A\cap B)$

$20=25-n(A\cap B)$

Subtract both sides by 25.

$20-25=-n(A\cap B)$

$-5=-n(A\cap B)$

$5=n(A\cap B)$

We need to find the number of people who have a school certificate only, i.e. $n(A\cap B')$ .

$n(A\cap B')=n(A)-n(A\cap B)$

$n(A\cap B')=14-5$

$n(A\cap B')=9$

Therefore, 9 people have a school certificate only.
