To get the congruent angles we shall use the sine rule since we have the length of at least 1 side and the values of the angles. 
Base length=12 inches
Base angles=50°
Third angle=180-(100)=80°
thus applying the sine rule we shall have:
a/sin A=b/sin B=c/sin C
thus we can get the congruent side as follows:
a/sin 50= 12/sin 80
a=(12 sin 50)/sin 80
a=9.334 inches
since the sides are congruent then the other congruent side will have a length of 9.334 inches

1)The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):

<span>1)The table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g(x):

 x     y
-1  -11
 0   -1
 1    9


g(x) = 5x + 1

Part A: Write a sentence to compare the slope of the two functions and show the steps you used to determine the slope of f(x) and g(x). (6 points)

slope of the data of the table:

slope = rise / run = Δy / Δx = [ 9 - ( - 1) ] / [1 - 0] = 10/1 = 10

Also Δy / Δx =  [-1 - (-11) ] / [ 0 - (-1) ] = 10 / 1 = 10

the slope of the function given in the form f(x) = mx + b is m, so the slope of g(x) = 5x - 1 is 5.

Comparisson: the slope of the function g(x) = 5x - 1 is half the slope of the function f(x) represented by the table.

Part B: Which function has a greater y-intercept? Justify your answer.

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0, so it is - 1 for the function represented by the table.

The y-intercept of a function given in the form f(x) = mx + b is b, so the y-intercept of g(x) = 5x - 1 is - 1.

So, both functions have equal y-intercept.

2)The table below shows the values of y for each value of x:

x  y
1  0
1 -1
2  1
2 -2

Part A: Does the table represent a relation that is a function? Justify your answer by using the values shown in the table. (4 points)

No, it is not a function, because the relation is ambiguous: the x-coordinate 1 may have two differente values, and the x-coordinate 2 may have two different. So you cannot determine the images of x = 1 and x = 2.

Part B: The function f(x) shown below represents the number of baskets Jess made at different distances, x, in meters, from the hoop:

f(x) = -x + 6

Calculate and interpret the meaning of f(4). (4 points)

f(4) = - 4 + 6 = 2

It means that Jess made 2 baskets at the distant of 4 meters.

Part C: Write an ordered pair to represent the input and output of the function in Part B when Jess is at a distance of p meters from the hoop. (2 points)

input, p         output, f(p)

6                       -6 + 6 = 0

So the ordered pair is (6,0)

Julie sent 200 emails last month. This month she sent 40% less. How many
NeX [460]

Answer:

She sent 120 emails this month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 200 by .60 (60 percent) and it will give you 120.

I used 60 instead of 40 because the problem said 40 percent less, NOT 40 percent of 200.

Write 2 equivqlent fractions for 4/5
MaRussiya [10]
You can multiply the fraction by any number you want so the new fraction gonna be equivalent to your fraction like : (4 × 2)/(5 × 2) = 8/10 or  (4 × 3) / ( 5×3) = 12/15 so 4/5 = 8/10 = 12/15 :))
i hope this be helpful
