We know that one regular hexagon is consist of the six equilateral triangles.

One of this is ΔAFM every angle in this triangle worth 60°, according to this

∡AFM=60°.

ΔABC is isosceles triangle with angle ∡ABC=120°, because every interior angle in regular hexagon worth 120°.

Angles ∡BAC=∡BCA=30°. Total sum of angles in one triangle is 180°.

∡ACF≅∡BCA=30° at the end we can conclud that angle ∡FAC=90° WHY?

Good luck!!!

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Hello! Remember you have to write complete questions in order to get good and exact answers. Here you have provided neither the graph nor the equation, so I could help you providing my own graph and equation. From physics, we know that speed, time and distance are related in the following form:

$distance=speed \times time \\ \\ \\ If: \\ \\ d:distance \\ v:speed \\ t:time \\ \\ \\ Then: \\ \\ d=vt$

So $v$ is the slope of a line that passes through the origin where $d$ matches the y-axis and $t$ matches the x-axis. So we can write:

$y=mx \\ \\ \\ y\rightarrow d \\ \\ m\rightarrow v \\ \\ x\rightarrow t$

From the graph, we can know that:

$y=40x \\ \\ \\ \text{Because the slope is:} \\ \\ m=\frac{40-0}{1-0}=40$

And the equation that I provide is:

$y=60x$

If both speeds are given in mi/h, then by comparing them, we can say that <em>the speed (rate) of the first car (graph) is 20mi/h less than the speed of the second car (equation)</em>

A newly introduced fitness program is gaining popularity among the members of a fitness club. The number of members, s(1), who j

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

Option A will be the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of members, s(t), who joined the program t months after it was introduced is modeled by the function below

$s(t) = 10(2)^{x} + 10$

The function is an exponential function and y-intercept of the function is at (0,20) point.

Now, from the graph given in the options, the first graph matches the criteria.

Hence, option A will be the answer. (Answer)

Solve each system by elimination <br> 5x-6y=6 <br> -5x+4y=-14

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the good part about this one is if u look, u can see that u have a positive 5x and a negative 5x....when added, these will cancel out....so u dont have to multiply ur equations by anything, u just have to add them

5x - 6y = 6

-5x + 4y = -14

---------------------add

-2y = - 8

y = -8/-2

y = 4

now sub 4 in for y in either of the original equations

5x - 6y = 6

5x - 6(4) = 6

5x - 24 = 6

5x = 6 + 24

5x = 30

x = 30/5

x = 6

lets check it...

-5x + 4y = -14

-5(6) + 4(4) = -14

-30 + 16 = -14

-14 = -14 (correct)

so it checks out.....x = 6 and y = 4 or (6,4) <===
