When parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the alternate interior angles are equal.

3x + 17 = x + 53

Subtract 'x' from each side:

2x + 17 = 53

Subtract 17 from each side:

2x = 36

Divide each side by 2 :

x = 18

3x+17=x+53 ( the angles are equal)
3x-x=53-17
2x=36
x=36:2
x=18

It took two people to complete carpeting in 10 days. How many more workers need to be hired to complete the same job in 4 days?
IRISSAK [1]

so two fellows did all the carpeting in 10 days.

now, how long did "1" fellow work only?  well, it worked for 10 days.

how long did the other fellow work for?  well, it was working alongside the first one, and it was there for also 10 days.

so the two guys working together, really did 10+10 = 20 "days worth of work".  So that the whole carpeting job can be done in 20 "days worth of work".

now if we want to finish it in 4 days, 20 ÷ 4 = 5.

so if we hire 5 guys, since each one will do 4 days worth, 5*4 = 20 <- the whole job.

Solve the equation: k^2+5k+13=0
mr_godi [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

k² + 5k + 13 = 0

Using the quadratic formula which is

x =  \frac{ - b \pm \sqrt{ {b}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a}  \\

From the question

a = 1 , b = 5 , c = 13

So we have

k =  \frac{ - 5 \pm \sqrt{ {5}^{2} - 4(1)(13) } }{2(1)}  \\  =  \frac{ - 5 \pm \sqrt{25 - 52} }{2}  \\  =  \frac{ - 5 \pm \sqrt{ - 27} }{2}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \\  =  \frac{ - 5  \pm3 \sqrt{3}  \: i}{2}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:

<u>Separate the solutions</u>

k_1 =  \frac{ - 5 + 3 \sqrt{3} \: i }{2}  \:  \:  \:  \: or \\ k_2 =  \frac{ - 5 - 3 \sqrt{3}  \: i}{2}

The equation has complex roots

<u>Separate the real and imaginary parts</u>

We have the final answer as

k_1 =  -  \frac{5}{2}  +  \frac{3 \sqrt{3} }{2}  \: i \:  \:  \:  \: or \\ k_2 =  -  \frac{5}{2}  -  \frac{3 \sqrt{3} }{2}  \: i

Hope this helps you

A scientist measured the exact distance between two points on a map and came up with the following number: 0.04000 km.
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The first zero after decimal point and 4 only

Step-by-step explanation:

Despite having 5 decimal points, the rules of significant figures dictate that unless there is a digit other than zero after, the only significant numbers are those that come before zero. For this case, the significant digits are only 0.04 but if it was 0.0400005 then all the other zeros would have also be considered significant.
