Answer:Boys=5,girls =2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b be the no of boys and g be the no of girls

Therefore

Sam has twice as many brothers as sisters

2g=b-1

b-2g=1--------------1

Amanda has five times as many brothers as sisters

5(g-1)=b

5g-b=5----------------2

using (1) & (2) we get

g=2

b=5

Triangle ABC IS an isosceles triangle AB=BC m
True [87]

Answer:

<em>The measure of angle A is 73°</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Isosceles Triangles</u>

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with exactly two congruent sides. The angles the congruent sides form with the third side are also equal.

The triangle ABC is isosceles and AB congruent with BC. The angle at B measures 34°.

The other two angles are congruent, i.e. their measures are the same. Since the internal angles of a triangle sum 180°:

2*m\angle A=180^\circ - 34^\circ =146^\circ

Thus:

m\angle A=146^\circ /2=73^\circ

The measure of angle A is 73°

Determine the intercepts of the line.
sergey [27]

Answer:

  y-intercept: (0, 5/2)

  x-intercept: (5/3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is found by setting x=0 and dividing by the coefficient of y.

  0 +2y = 5

  y = 5/2

The x-intercept is found by setting y=0 and dividing by the coefficient of x.

  3x +0 = 5

  x = 5/3

The intercepts are ...

  y-intercept: (0, 5/2)

  x-intercept: (5/3, 0)
