Answer:

The value of b is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation,

$3(b-4)+5b=44$

$3b - 12 + 5b = 44$ ( By distributive property )

$8b - 12 = 44$ ( combining like terms )

$8b = 44+12$ ( Additive property of equality )

$8b = 56$

$\implies b = 7$ ( Division property of equality )

Solve for all of the missing angles in the rhombus below, given that m∠3 = 54°. (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)

Marat540 [252]

The measure of angles 1, 2, 4, and 5 are 54 degrees, 90 degrees, 36 degrees, and angle 36 degrees.

<h3>What is a rhombus?</h3>

A rhombus is a two-dimensional shape having four parallel opposite pairs of straight, equal sides. This shape resembles a diamond and is what you'd find on a deck of cards to represent the diamond suit. Rhombuses can be encountered in a variety of common situations.

We have shown the rhombus in the picture.

As we know the diagonals bisect at a 90-degree angle.

So angle 2 = 90 degree

angle 1 = angle 3

angle 1 = 54 degrees

angle 1 + angle 2 + angle 5 = 180

54 + 90 + angle 5 = 180

angle 5 = 36 degrees

angle 5 = angle 4 = 36 degrees

Thus, the measure of angles 1, 2, 4, and 5 are 54 degrees, 90 degrees, 36 degrees, and angle 36 degrees.

A line passes through the point (–2, 7) and has a slope of –5.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create an equation in point-slope form, which is: $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ , where $(x_1,y_1)$ is the point and m is the slope.

Here, our point is (-2, 7) and our slope is m = -5 so plug these in:

$y -7=-5*(x-(-2))$

$y -7=-5*(x+2)$

Now, if (a, 2) lies on this line, then it should satisfy the equation. So plug in a for x and 2 for y:

2 - 7 = -5(a + 2)

-5 = -5(a + 2)

Divide by -5:

1 = a + 2

Subtract 2 from both sides:

a = -1

Thus, the answer is B.

Hope this helps!
