Given:

The wheel chair ramp is parallel to the ramp.

To find:

The value of x and y.

Solution:

If two lines are parallel, then the alternate interior angles are congruent.

4x° + 6y° = 86° --------- (1)

Similarly,

5x° + 6y° = 94°

Subtract 5x° from both sides.

5x° + 6y° - 5x° = 94° - 5x°

6y° = 94° - 5x° --------- (2)

Substitute (2) in (1).

4x° + 94° - 5x° = 86°

94° - x° = 86°

Subract 94° on both sides.

94° - x° - 94° = 86° - 94°

- x° = 86° - 94°

- x° = -8°

Multiply by -1 on both sides, we get

x = 8

Substitute x = 8 in (2).

6y° = 94° - 5(8)°

6y° = 54°

Divide by 6 on both sides, we get

y = 6

The value of x is 8 and y is 6.

Two skateboarders start a race at the same time skateboarder A travels at a steady rate of 15 feet per second skateboarder B tra
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Relative speed can play a major role in creating distance between two bodies. If the relative speed between two bodies is 0, then both the bodies are moving in the same direction with a similar speed. Thus, After 4 minutes, 1680 feet farther will Skateboarder B have traveled.

Skateboarder A travels at a steady rate of 15 feet per second.

Skateboarder B travels at a steady rate of 22 feet per second.

We need to determine that after 4 minutes, how much farther will Skateboarder B have traveled.

The formula for finding the distance travelled by anybody is represented below

Time is given that is 4 minutes which means 240 seconds.

Thus,

Distance travelled by skateboarder A

Distance travelled by skateboarder B.

Therefore, the separation of the distance between both the skateboarders is 5280 - 3600 = 1680.

Thus, After 4 minutes, 1680 feet farther will Skateboarder B have traveled.

Triangle ABC has vertices at A(−3, 4), B(4, −2), C(8, 3). The triangle translates 2 units up and 1 unit right. Which rule repres
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The translation statement is given by:

(x,y)\rightarrow (x+1,y+2)

After the translation, the coordinates of vertex A is (-2,6).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Vertices of a triangle ABC are:

A(−3, 4), B(4, −2), C(8, 3)

The triangle is translated 2 units up and 1 unit right.

To find the co-ordinates of point A after translation.

Translation rules.

For shift of c units up, the translation is given as:

(x,y)\rightarrow (x,y+c)

For shift of k units right, the translation is given as:

(x,y)\rightarrow (x+k,y)

So, it says the triangles is translated 2 units up and 1 unit right.

The translation statement is given by:

(x,y)\rightarrow (x+1,y+2)

So, co-ordinates of point A after translation is given by :

(-3,4)\rightarrow (-3+1,4+2)=(-2,6)

After the translation, the coordinates of vertex A is (-2,6).
