Why are angles opposite each other when two lines cross called vertical angles?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nezavi [6.7K]3 years ago

They are called vertical angles because the definition of vertical is: <span>in a direction, or having an alignment, such that the top is directly above the bottom. The "angles opposite each other when two lines cross" match the definition.</span>

Finding values or<br> k(x) = x - 2<br> h(x) = x2 +1<br> (h + k)(2) =
Serjik [45]

Answer:

<h2>(h + k)(2) = 5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

(h+k)(x)=h(x)+k(x)\\\\\bold{METHOD\ 1:}\\\\k(x)=x-2,\ h(x)=x^2+1\\\\(k+h)(2)=h(2)+k(2)\\\\\text{Calculate}\ h(2)\ \text{and}\ k(2).\\\text{Put}\ x=2\ \text{to the equations of the functions}\\\\h(2)=2^2+1=4+1=5\\k(2)=2-2=0\\\\\text\\\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\(h+k)(2)=5+0=5

\bold{METHOD\ 2:}\\\\k(x)=x-2,\ h(x)=x^2+1\\\\(h+k)(x)=h(x)+k(x)=(x^2+1)+(x-2)=x^2+x-1\\\\(h+k)(2)-\text{put}\ x=2\\\\(h+k)(2)=2^2+2-1=4+2-1=6-1=5

Solve The Equation <br> 4x×9y=7<br> 4x-9y=9
hoa [83]

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=\dfrac{9}{8}-\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{8},\ y=-\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{18}}\\or\\\boxed{x=\dfrac{9}{8}+\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{2},\ y=-\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{18}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}4x\times9y=7&(1)\\4x-9y=9&(2)\end{array}\right\\\\(2)\\4x-9y=9\qquad\text{subtract}\ 4x\ \text{from both sides}\\-9y=-4x+9\qquad\text{change the signs}\\9y=4x-9\qquad\text{substitute it to (1)}\\\\4x(4x-9)=7\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\(4x)(4x)+(4x)(-9)=7\\(4x)^2-36x=7\\(4x)^2-2(4x)(4.5)=7\qquad\text{add}\ 4.5^2\ \text{to both sides}\\(4x)^2-2(4x)(4.5)+4.5^2=7+4.5^2\qquad\text{use}\ (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2

(4x-4.5)^2=7+20.25\\(4x-4.5)=27.25\to 4x-4.5=\pm\sqrt{27.25}\\\\4x-\dfrac{45}{10}=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{2725}{100}}\\\\4x-\dfrac{45}{10}=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{2725}}{\sqrt{100}}\\\\4x-\dfrac{45}{10}=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{25\cdot109}}{10}\\\\4x-\dfrac{45}{10}=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{25}\cdot\sqrt{109}}{10}\\\\4x-\dfrac{45}{10}=\pm\dfrac{5\sqrt{109}}{10}\qquad\text{add}\ \dfrac{45}{10}\ \text{to both sides}\\\\4x=\dfrac{45}{10}\pm\dfrac{5\sqrt{109}}{10}

4x=\dfrac{9}{2}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{2}\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\x=\dfrac{9}{8}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{8}\\\\\text{Put the values of}\ x\ \text{to (2):}\\\\9y=4\left(\dfrac{9}{8}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{8}\right)-9\\\\9y=\dfrac{9}{2}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{2}-\dfrac{18}{2}\\\\9y=-\dfrac{9}{2}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{2}\qquad\text{divide both sides by 9}\\\\y=-\dfrac{1}{2}\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{109}}{18}

Suppose that in a certain county 37% of voters are registered as Democrats, 29% as Republicans, 7% as Green party, and the rest
Fantom [35]

Answer:

0.66

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: Suppose that in a certain county 37\% of voters are registered as Democrats, 29\% as Republicans, 7\% as Green party, and the rest are considered Independents. You conduct a poll by calling registered voters in the county at random.

TO FIND: Probability that the first call will be to either a Democrat or a Republican.

SOLUTION:

Lets total population of county be 100x.

voters registered as Democrats =37\%=\frac{37}{100}\times100x

                                                     =37x

voters registered as Republicans =29\%=\frac{29}{100}\times100x

                                                       =29x

voters registered as Green party =7\%=\frac{7}{100}\times100x

                                                       =7x

Probability that first call will be to Democrats P(A)=\frac{\text{total democrats}}{\text{total voters}}

                                                                                    =\frac{37x}{100x}=0.37

Probability that first call will be to Republican P(B)=\frac{\text{total republicans}}{\text{total voters}}

                                                                                     =\frac{29x}{100x}=0.29

probability that the first call will be to either a Democrat or a Republican

=P(A)+P(B)

=0.37+0.29

=0.66

Hence the probability that the first call will be to either a Democrat or a Republican is 0.66
