In a right triangle, the acute angles measure x + 15 and 2x degrees. What is the measure of the smallest angle of the triangle?

1 answer:

8 0

First, solve for each of the angles. Since it is a right triangle, one of the angles is 90 degrees. Knowing that the sum of the angles of a triangle are always equal to 180 degrees, you can write an equation for the triangle.

Angle1+ angle2+angle3=180.

Which means that 90+(x+15)+2x=180.

After finding the value of x, which is 25 in this case, solve for each angle.

X+15=25+15=40.

2x=25*2= 50

The value of the smallest angle is 40 degrees.

Basically, the higher the price an item is the more you will be taking off of it if it is 10 percent off. For example, at $50, 10 percent off is $5, but at $55, it’s $5.50. There is more to take away, making the final price less than the original. Hope that make sense!

A room contains three urns: u1, u2, u3. u1 contains 3 red and 2 yellow marbles. u2 contains 3 red and 7 yellow marbles. u3 conta

Archy [21]

Answer:

$\dfrac{11}{30}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Urn U1: 3 red and 2 yellow marbles, in total 5 marbles.

The probability to select red marble is $\dfrac{3}{5}=0.6.$

Urn U2: 3 red and 7 yellow marbles, in total 10 marbles.

The probability to select red marble is $\dfrac{3}{10}=0.3.$

Urn U1: 1 red and 4 yellow marbles, in total 5 marbles.

The probability to select red marble is $\dfrac{1}{5}=0.2.$

The probability to choose each urn is the same and is equal to $\frac{1}{3}.$

Thus, the probability that the marble is red is

$\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 0.6+\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 0.3+\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 0.2=\dfrac{1.1}{3}=\dfrac{11}{30}.$

Population of a town is 2500 and it grows with a doubling time of 10 years. What will the population be in eight years

alex41 [277]

Answer: I think 4500.

Step-by-step explanation: Since the doubling time is 10 years, which means another 2500 is added. So all we have to do is add 2500*(8/10) plus the original 2500, and here ya go!
