Answer:
y = -5/2x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y intercept
=
y = -5/2x - 3
Pythagoras theorem: leg 1 squared + leg 2 squared = hypotenuse squared
In the diagram, the triangle has angles 90 and 45. So the other angle in the triangle must be 45 degrees as well. (180 - 90 -45 = 45)
This means it is an isosceles triangle (since two angles are the same), so the two legs have the same length.
So we can say that length of leg1 = x, and the length of leg2 also equals x
Now let's use pythagoras' theorem:
leg1 = x
leg2 = x
hypotenuse = 16
x^2 + x^2 = 16^2
2x^2 = 16^2
2x^2 = 256
x^2 = 128
x = √(128)
x = 8√2
Answer:
4 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
The total required quarts of paint is: 8 x 1/2 = 4
Answer:
Angle WTS will be 180 degree minus 15x. You can write this as an expression:
180-15x
Now you have an expression for each angle in the triangle. Triangles will always have 180 degrees in them. You can add the expressions together and set it equal to 180. Then you can solve the equation for the x variable.
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle SWT + angle WTS + angle TSW = 180 degrees
Replace each angle with the expression then solve.
