Answer:
I would say three person(s).
Answer:
54.2 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the drivers leave at the same time and travel in directions 90° from each other, their separation speed can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. Let c represent Cynthia's average speed. Then (c-10) will represent Tim's average speed. Their combined separation speed is 70 miles per hour, so we can write ...
70² = c² +(c -10)²
4900 = 2c² -20c +100 . . . . eliminate parentheses
c² -10c -2400 = 0 . . . . . . . . divide by 2; put in standard form
(c -5)² -2425 = 0 . . . . . . . . . rearrange to vertex form
c = 5 ±5√97 . . . . . . . . . . . . solve for c, simplify radical
c ≈ 54.244 ≈ 54.2 . . . . . . . use the positive solution
Cynthia's average speed was 54.2 miles per hour.
Answer:
x = 88
Step-by-step explanation:
These angles are same side exterior angles, and when the lines are parallel, same side exterior angles are supplementary
x + 92 =180
Subtract 92 from each side
x+92-92=180-92
x =88

Answer:
3. The missing angle is 56°
4. x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
3.
We know sum of 3 angles in a triangle is 180°.
Looking at the top triangle, we can figure out the third angle. Let third angle be x:
85 + 35 + x = 180
120 + x = 180
x = 180 - 120
x = 60
<u>The angle "x" and the angle that is missing from the "bottom" triangle in the figure, are vertical angles, and hence, are EQUAL.</u>
So the bottom triangle now has 2 angles, 60 and 64 (given). Let the third angle be y(the one with a question mark). So we can write:
60 + 64 + y = 180
124 + y = 180
y = 180 - 124
y= 56
This is the missing angle.
4.
10x - 5 AND 8x + 9 are vertical angles. They ARE EQUAL.
Thus we can write the equation:
(10x-5) = (8x+9)
10x-8x=9+5
2x=14
x=14/2
x=7
So x = 7
