The bottom of Ignacio’s desktop is 74.5 cm from the floor. Ignacio sits in his adjustable chair, and the top of his legs are 49.

3 cm from the floor. Each clockwise rotation of the knob on the chair raises Ignacio’s legs by 4.8 cm. Write an inequality to determine the number of clockwise rotations, r , Ignacio could make with the knob without his legs touching the desk.

Answer: Ignacio can make 5 clockwise rotations.  

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the Ignacio's legs are already at a height of 49.3cm and each rotation of the chair knob raises his legs another 4.8cm, we can set up an inequality to determine the number of rotations Ignacio could make without his legs touching the desk, which is at a height of 74.5cm:

4.8r + 49.3 < 74.5  where 'r' is equal to the number of rotations

The sum of the Ignacio's original leg height plus the amount of height increased from the rotations of the know must be less than 74.5 in order for his legs not to touch.  Now, solve for 'r':

Subtract 49.3 from both sides:  4.8r + 49.3 - 49.3 < 74.5 - 49.3 or 4.8r < 25.2

Divide 4.8 from both sides:  4.8r/4.8 < 25.2/4.8 or  r < 5.25

Since the number of rotations must be less than 5.25, he can make 5 complete rotations.

23) m 2 = 7x + 6<br>70°​
lakkis [162]

Answer:

∠2 = 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the triangle has 2 congruent sides then the triangle is isosceles.

Thus the 2 base angle are congruent, both equal to ∠2

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180

7x + 6 + 7x + 6 + 70 = 180, that is

14x + 82 = 180 ( subtract 82 from both sides )

14x = 98 ( divide both sides by 14 )

x = 7

Hence

∠2 = 7x + 6 = (7 × 7) + 6 = 49 + 6 = 55°

What is the sum of the interior angles, each interior angle, the central angle, and each exterior angle of a pentagon, a hexagon
WITCHER [35]
<span>Sum of Interior Angles: Formula: (n-2) * 180
-Pentagon: 540</span>°<span>
-Hexagon: 720</span>°<span>
-Octagon: 900</span>°<span>
-Nonagon: 1260</span>°<span>
-Decagon: 1440</span>°<span>
-Dodecagon: 1800</span>°

Each interior Angle: Formula: [(n-2)*180] / n
-Pentagon: 108°
-Hexagon: 120°
-Octagon: 135°
-Nonagon: 140°
-Decagon: 144°
-Dodecagon: 150°

The sum of the exterior angles of each polygon stated above is equal to 360 degrees. Using the formula: (180-interior angle) * n

The central angle is formed by making a circle in the middle and divide it by the number of sides. Therefore, CA = 360 /n
-Pentagon: 72°
-Hexagon: 60°
-Octagon: 45°
-Nonagon: 40°
-Decagon: 36°
-Dodecagon: 30°

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the g
Fiesta28 [93]
Parallel lines have equal slopes. so the equation y=-4x+5.has slope of -4 because this is in slope intercept form y=mx+b where m is slope.

so we know a parallel line will have slope -4

we have a point on the line so we will use point slope formula to solve.
y-y1=m(x-x1) where (x1,y1) is point on line
so we get
y-4=-4(x-0) to put in slope intercept form we solve for y
y-4=-4x
y=-4x+4 is an equation of a line parallel to y=-4+5 passing through (0,4)
