Line WX and line YZ intersect at point V. If angle WVY = 4a + 58 and angle XVY = 2b - 18, find the values of a and b so that lin
e WX is perpendicular to line YZ.

1 answer:
we know that
If line WX is perpendicular to line YZ
then
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
m∠WVY=90°--------> 4a+58=90-----> 4a=90-58-----> a=32/4------> a=8°
m∠XVY=90°--------> 2b-18=90----> 2b=90+18------> b=118/2-------> b=59°
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
a) The value of a is 8 degrees
b) The value of b is 59 degrees

You will read for 45 minutes if your brother reads for 15 minutes.
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
You decide to read 30 minutes longer than your brother reads.
If your brother reads number of minutes, then 30 minutes longer than
minutes means
minutes.
As the number of minutes you read is , so the equation will be:
When your brother reads for 15 minutes, then we will just <u>plug into the above equation</u>. So.....
So, you will read for 45 minutes if your brother reads for 15 minutes.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the Remainder Theorem; when P(y) is divided by y-a, the remainder is p(a).
The first polynomial is :
When p(y) is divided by y-5, the remainder is
When the second polynomial:
is divided by y-5.
The remainder is;
The two remainders are equal;
