Answer:

  • ∠CDE ↔ 50°
  • ∠FEG ↔ 75°
  • ∠ACB ↔ 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve angle problems like this, you make use of three relations:

  • linear angles have a sum of 180°
  • angles in a triangle have a sum of 180°
  • vertical angles have the same measure

The attached diagram shows the measures of all of the angles of interest in the figure. The ones shown in blue are the ones that have the measures and names on the list of answer choices.

__

A good place to start is with the linear angle pair at A. Since the sum of the two angles is 180°, the angle at A that is inside the triangle will be ...

  180° -130° = 50°

Then the missing angle in that triangle at C will have the measure that makes the sum of triangle angles be 180°:

  ∠ACB = 180° -50° -75° = 55° . . . . . this is one of the angles on your list

Similarly, the angle at E inside triangle FEG will have a measure that makes those angles have a sum of 180°:

  ∠FEG = 180° -60° -45° = 75° . . . . . this is one of the angles on your list

__

The two angles whose measures we just found are vertical angles with the base angles in triangle CDE, so that triangle's angle D will have a measure that makes the total be 180°.

  ∠CDE = 180° -55° -75° = 50° . . . . . this is one of the angles on your list

At a restaurant, three salads, two sandwiches, and one drink cost $17.75. One salad, one sandwich, and three drinks cost $10.75.
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

A salad costs $2.50

A sandwich costs $4.50

A drink costs $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the salad, y represent the sandwich, and z represent the drink.

Since three salads, two sandwiches, and one drink cost $17.75:

3x + 2y + z = 17.75  (1)

Since one salad, one sandwich, and three drinks cost $10.75:

x + y + 3z = 10.75  (2)

Since a salad costs twice as much as a drink:

x = 2z  (3)

Multiply the equation 2 by -2 then, sum the equation 1 and equation 2:

-2x - 2y - 6z = -21.50

3x + 2y + z = 17.75

→ x - 5z = -3.75

Replace the x with 2z using equation 3:

2z - 5z = -3.75

-3z = -3.75

z = 1.25

x = 2z → x = 2.50

x + y + 3z = 10.75 → 2.50 + y + 3.75 = 10.75 → y + 6.25 = 10.75 → y = 4.50

Vesna [10]

Answer:

15 people/mi

Step-by-step explanation:

The population density of a region in Alaska is 3,000 people/200 mi.

We need to find the equivalent to the population density of this Alaskan region.

x=\dfrac{3000\ \text{people}}{200\ \text{mi}}\\\\x=\dfrac{30\ \text{people}}{2\ \text{mi}}\\\\x=\dfrac{15\ \text{people}}{\text{mi}}

So, the correct option is (c) "15 people/mi"

An instructor wants to write a test with 25 questions where each question is worth 3, 4, or 5 points based on difficulty. He wan
irakobra [83]

ANSWER

Find out the how many 3, 4, and 5 point questions could there be.

To proof

Let us assume that the 3 points based question be = x

Let us assume that the 4 points based question be = y

Let us assume that the 5 points based question be = z

As given

An instructor wants to write a test with 25 questions

than the equation become in the form

x + y + z = 25

he quiz to be worth a total of 100 points.

than the equation is becomes

3x + 4y + 5z =100

As given

He wants the number of 3-point questions to be 4 less than the number of 4-point questions

x = y -4

Than the three equation are

x + y + z = 25 ,3x + 4y + 5z =100 and x = y -4

put  x = y -4 in the x + y + z = 25 ,3x + 4y + 5z =100

than

2y + z = 29, 7y +5z= 112

multiply 2y + z = 29 by 5 and subtracted 7y +5z= 112

10 y -7y + 5y -5y = 145 -112

3y = 33

y = \frac{33}{3}

y =11

put in the  x = y -4

x = 11-4

x= 7

put the value of x ,y in the x + y + z = 25

7 + 11 +z =25

18 +z = 25

z = 25 -18

z=7

therefore

numbers of the 3 point question be = 7

numbers of the 4 point question be = 11

numbers of the 5 point question be = 7

Hence proved
