Answer:

Tower 4 = 23.9cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Tower one = 15.6 cm

Tower two = 18.3 cm

Tower 3 = 13.9 cm.

Required:

Height of the 4th tower

Represent a cube by X; a cylinder by Y and a hexagonal prism by Z

Tower one, a cube with a hexagonal prism = X + Z = 15.6

Tower two, a cube with a cylinder = X + Y = 18.3

Tower 3, a hexagonal prism with a cylinder = Z + Y = 13.9

X + Z = 15.6 ----- Equation 1

X + Y = 18.3 ----- Equation 2

Z + Y = 13.9 ----- Equation 3

Subtract equation 1 from 2

(X + Y = 18.3) - (X + Z = 15.6)

X - X + Y - Z = 18.3 -15.6

Y - Z = 18.3 -15.6

Y - Z = 2.7 ---- Equation 4

Add Equation 4 to Equation 3

(Y - Z = 2.7) + (Z + Y = 13.9)

Y + Y - Z + Z = 2.7+ 13.9

2Y  = 2.7+ 13.9

2Y  = 16.6

Divide both sides by 2

\frac{2Y}{2}  = \frac{16.6}{2}

Y  = \frac{16.6}{2}

Y  = 8.3cm

Substitute Y  = 8.3cm in Equation 2 and 3

X + Y = 18.3 ----- Equation 2

X + 8.3 = 18.3

Subtract 8.3 from both sides

X + 8.3 - 8.3 = 18.3 - 8.3

X = 18.3 - 8.3

X = 10cm

Z + Y = 13.9 ----- Equation 3

Z + 8.3 = 13.9

Subtract 8.3 from both sides

Z + 8.3 - 8.3 = 13.9 - 8.3

Z = 13.9 - 8.3

Z = 5.6cm

So, we have that

X = 10cm

Y  = 8.3cm

Z = 5.6cm

The question states that the 4th tower is made up of the three shapes;

This implies that;

Tower 4 = X + Y + Z

Tower 4 = 10cm + 8.3cm + 5.6cm

Tower 4 = 23.9cm

The height of the 4th tower is 23.9cm

A coordinate plane with the x-axis labeled Blueberries (in pints) and the y-axis labeled Cost (in dollars) shows a line going through (0, 0) and (5, 17).

<h3>What is directly proportional?</h3>

It is defined as the relationship between two quantities as one quantity increases the other quantity also increases and vice versa.

It is given that there is a proportional relationship between cost and pints of blueberries as,

Blueberries (in pints)          2      5

Cost (in dollars)                6.80   17

17/6.80 = 5/2

As we draw the graph and analyze each option one by one we get the graph shown by the statement C following the given proportional relationship.

Thus, a coordinate plane with the x-axis labeled Blueberries (in pints) and the y-axis labeled Cost (in dollars) shows a line going through (0, 0) and (5, 17).

Write the equation of the line of best fit using the slope-intercept formula $y = mx + b$. Show all your work, including the poi
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

y=\frac{5}{7}x+\frac{135}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

You only need two points on a line to find the equation for that line.

We are going to use 2 points that cross that line or at least come close to. You don't have to use the green points... just any point on the line will work.  You might have to approximate a little.

I see ~(67.5,67.5) and ~(64,65).

Now once you have your points, we need to find the slope.

You may use \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} where (x_1,y_1) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2) are points on the line.

Or you can line up the points vertically and subtract then put 2nd difference over 1st difference.

Like this:

(  64  ,   65  )

-( 67.5, 67.5 )

--------------------

-3.5        -2.5

So the slope is -2.5/-3.5=2.5/3.5=25/35=5/7.

Now use point-slope form to find the equation:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1) where m is the slope and (x_1,y_1) is a point on the line.

y-65=\frac{5}{7}(x-64)

Distribute:

y-65=\frac{5}{7}x-\frac{5}{7}\cdot 64

Simplify:

y-65=\frac{5}{7}x-\frac{320}{7}

Add 65 on both sides:

y=\frac{5}{7}x-\frac{320}{7}+65

Simplify:

y=\frac{5}{7}x+\frac{135}{7}

ABCD is a parallelogram. Find the measure of angle ABC.​
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

∠ABC = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a parallelogram, opposite angles are congruent.

Therefore, ∠D ≅ ∠B

∠D = 38° + 12°

∠B = 38° + 12°

∠B = 50°

∠ABC = 50°
