Answer:

The answer is option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, there!!!

Here, if you closely look this figure, you will find that AB and CD are interested at a point O. 

now, OP is just a line constructed from point "O".

now, 2x°+4x°=150°.....is equation. 

{Because, They are vertically opposite angle}

When two st. line intersects at a point then the abgle formed oppositely are equal.

Hope it helps..

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 4x = 150

In this photo, 2x + 4x are the same as 150,

=> 2x + 4x = 150

We could solve this problem:

=> 6x = 150

=> 6x/6 = 150/6

=> x = 25

2x = 2 * 25 = 50 degrees

4x = 4 * 25 = 100 degrees

100 + 50 = 150 degrees.

So our answer is correct.

A jeweler wants to make 14 grams of an alloy that is precisely 75% gold.. The jeweler has alloys that are 25% gold, 50% gold, &a

Goryan [66]

Given that the jeweler has alloys that are 25% gold, 50% gold, and 82% gold.

As he wants to make 14 grams of an alloy by adding two different alloys that is precisely 75% gold, so one alloy must have a percentage of gold more than 75%.

One alloy is 82% gold and, the second can be chosen between 25% gold, 50% gold, so there are two cases.

Case 1: 82% gold + 50% gold

Let x grams of 82% gold and y grams of 50% gold added to make x+y=14 grams of 75% gold, so

75% of 14 = 82% of x + 50% of y

$\Rightarrow 75/100 \times 14 = 82/100 \times x + 50/100 \times y \\\\$

$\Rightarrow 75/100 \times 14 = 82/100 \times x + 50/100 \times (14-x)$ [as x+y=14]

$\Rightarrow 75 \times 14 = 82 \times x + 50 \times (14-x) \\\\\Rightarrow 75 \times 14 = 82 \times x + 50 \times14-50\times x \\\\\Rightarrow 75 \times 14 = 32 \times x + 50 \times14 \\\\\Rightarrow 32 \times x =75 \times 14 - 50 \times14 \\\\$

$\Rightarrow x =(25 \times 14)/32=10.9375$ grams

and $y = 14-x= 14-10.9375=3.0625$ grams.

Hence, 10.9375 grams of 82% gold and 3.0625 grams of 50% gold added to make 14 grams of 75% gold.

Case 2: 82% gold + 25% gold

Let x grams of 82% gold and y grams of 25% gold added to make x+y=14 grams of 75% gold, so

75% of 14 = 82% of x + 25% of y

$\Rightarrow 75/100 \times 14 = 82/100 \times x + 25/100 \times y \\\\\Rightarrow 75/100 \times 14 = 82/100 \times x + 25/100 \times (14-x) \\\\ \Rightarrow 75 \times 14 = 82 \times x + 25 \times (14-x) \\\\\Rightarrow 75 \times 14 = 82 \times x + 25 \times14-25\times x \\\\\Rightarrow 75 \times 14 = 57 \times x + 25 \times14 \\\\\Rightarrow 57 \times x =75 \times 14 - 25 \times14 \\\\$

$\Rightarrow x =(50 \times 14)/57=12.28$ grams

and $y = 14-x= 14-12.28=1.72$ grams.

Hence, 12.28 grams of 82% gold and 1.72 grams of 50% gold added to make 14 grams of 75% gold.

A line passes through the point (-2, 3) and has a slope of -2. What is the equation of the line?

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

y = -2x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

slope intercept form is y = mx +b

m = slope, b = y intercept

point is given as ordered pair (x,y)

plug in slope into y=......

y= -2x+b

plug in the point

3 = -2 * (-2) + b

3= 4 +b subtract 4 on each side

b = -1

y = -2x -1

If gasoline costs 2.14 per gallon and you drive 500 miles in a car that gets 30 mpg, what is the cost of gasoline

Vlad [161]

Answer:

35.7

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would calculate how many gallons of gasoline the car gets. To do this, divide your total mileage of 500 miles by the mpg (30). Now you know how many gallons of gasoline will be used by the car. After calculating, you get 16.67. Multiply this by how much it costs per gallon of gasoline, and you get an answer of $35.7.
