Answer:
28 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
62 = angle BAC since they are vertical angles
angle ABC is a right angle since KL is perpendicular to FG
Adding the angles in triangle ABC
BAC + ABC + BCA = 180
62 + 90 + BCA = 180
152 + BCA = 180
BCA = 180-152
BCA = 28
BCA = x since they are vertical angles
28 = x
Answer:
I would set this up as:
let: lesser number = x
greater number = 2x + 5
Restating the word problem:
lesser number + greater number = 38
x + 2x + 5 = 38
Solving: 3x + 5 = 38
- 5 -5
---------------
3x = 33
--- ---
3 3
x = 11
Substitution for the greater number:
2(11) + 5
22 + 5
27
Answer:
A) The model exists: f(x) = -3x^2 +4x -4
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic model will always exist for 3 given points, provided they are not on a line. In that case, a linear model is appropriate.
Here, the slope between -1 and 0 is positive, and the slope between 0 and 3 is negative. Thus, we know these points are not collinear, and a model must exist.
The model is most easily found using a quadratic regression tool. Such is shown in the attachment. It tells us that ...
f(x) = -3x^2 +4x -4
Answer:
A) Steve = Ryan +18
B) Steve + Ryan = 144
A) Steve -Ryan = 18 then adding B
B) Steve + Ryan = 162
2 Steve = 162
Steve weighs 81 pounds
Ryan weighs (81 -18) pounds 63 pounds
