∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary angles. ∠ 1 = x - 19 ∠ 2 = x - 17

1 answer:

4 0

∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary angles, or they equal 180° (supplementary = 180°)

∠1 = x - 19
∠2 = x - 17

Plug in the corresponding expressions with the angles.

(x - 19) + (x- 17) = 180

Combine like terms

x + x = 2x
-19 - 17 = -36

2x - 36 = 180

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

2x - 36 (+36) = 180 (+36)

2x = 180 + 36

2x = 216

Divide 2 from both sides to isolate the x

2x/2 = 216/2

x = 216/2

x = 108

Plug in 108 for x

∠1 = (108) - 19
∠1 = 89°
∠2 = (108) - 17
∠2 = 91°

hope this helps

A family wants to build a rectangular garden on one side of a barn. If 600 feet of fencing is available to use, then what is the

vovangra [49]

Answer: (A) $A=300l-l^{2}$

(B) Length varies between 1 and 150

Step-by-step explanation: Suppose length is l and width is w.

The rectangular garden has perimeter of 600ft, which is mathematically represented as

$2l+2w=600$

Area of a rectangle is calculated as

$A=lw$

Now, we have a system of equations:

$2l+2w=600$

$A=lw$

Isolate w, so we have l:

$2w=600-2l$

w = 300 - l

Substitute in the area equation:

A = l(300 - l)

A = 300l - l²

(A) Function of area in terms of length is given by A = 300l - l²

(B) The practical domain for this function is values between 1 and 150.

(C) For the largest area, we need to determine the largest garden possible. For that, we take first derivative of the function:

A' = 300 - 2l

Find the values of l when A'=0:

300 - 2l = 0

2l = 300

l = 150

Replace l in the equation:

w = 300 - 150

w = 150

Now, calculate the largest area:

A = 150*150

A = 22500

The largest area the fence can enclose is 22500ft².

Complete the tables to determine if the expressions are equivalent. If the expressions are equivalent, name the properties that

jok3333 [9.3K]

I don’t know how to necessarily complete the tables but i know they are equivalent

1. 3(x-5)
3 (x) = 3x
3 (-5) = -15

that is the distributive property thus it equals

3x - 15

2. 3x - 15

they’re the same

Solve the system by substitution. Check your solution. a-1.2b=-3 0.2b+0.6a=12

velikii [3]

A - 1.2b = - 3 ⇒ eq. 1
0.2b + 0.6a = 12 ⇒ eq. 2

a - 1.2b = - 3
a = 1.2b - 3 ⇒ eq. 3

Substitute eq. 3 to eq. 2
0.2b + 0.6(1.2b - 3) = 12
0.2b + .72b - 1.8 = 12
Combine like terms
0.92b = 12 + 1.8
0.92b = 13.8 ⇒ divide both sides by 0.92 to get the value of b
b = 15

Substitute the value of b to eq. 3
a = 1.2b - 3
a = 1.2(15) - 3
a = 15

to check: substitute the values of a and b to:
eq. 1
a - 1.2b = - 3
15 - (1.2)(15) = -3
15 - 18 = - 3
- 3 = -3 ⇒ correct!

eq. 2
0.2b + 0.6a = 12
(0.2)(15) + (0.6)(15) = 12
3 + 9 = 12
12 = 12 ⇒ correct!
