x = -3, y = -2

Substitute the values of x and y to the equation xy = k:

k = (-3)(-2)

k = 6

ABCD is a rectangle. The measure of angle BCE is 4x-23 and the angle measure of angle DCE is 5+5x. Find the measure of angle BEC

Temka [501]

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

The diagram for this problem is shown below. Point E is the intersection of the two diagonals and we know that:

$\angle BCE=\beta \\ \\ \angle DCE=\theta$

Every internal angle of any rectangle measures 90 degrees, so:

$\beta +\alpha=90 \\ \\ (4x-23)+(5+5x)=90 \\ \\ \\ Isolating \ x: \\ \\ (4x+5x)+(5-23)=90 \\ \\ 9x-18=90 \\ \\ 9x=108 \\ \\ x=\frac{108}{9}=12$

So:

$\beta=4x-23=4(12)-23=25^{\circ}$

So the measure of angle BEC can be found as follows:

We know that triangle ΔCEB is an isosceles triangle because the diagonals of any rectangle measure the same. So

$\angle EBC=\beta$

The sum of internal angles of any triangle add up to 180 degrees, so:

$\beta + \beta+\angle BEC=180^{\circ} \\ \\ 2\beta+\angle BEC=180^{\circ} \\ \\ \angle BEC=180^{\circ}-2\beta \\ \\ \angle BEC=180^{\circ}-2(25^{\circ}) \\ \\ \angle BEC=180^{\circ}-50^{\circ} \\ \\ \boxed{\angle BEC=130^{\circ}}}$

Nicole used 3/8 of her ribbon to wrap the present. If she used 6 feet of ribbon for the present how much ribbon did Nicole have

lilavasa [31]

You would set up a proportion. 3/8 = 6/x... cross multiply ( 3*x = 3x and 6*8 = 48) 3x = 48... divide both sides by 3 (3x/3 = x and 48/3 = 16)

So, she originally had 16 feet of ribbon.

If one of the roots of the equation x²- 4x + k=0exceeds the other by 2, then find the roots and determine the value of k

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

roots: 1 and 3

k = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2 roots: p and p+2

(x-p) (x-p-2) = x² - 4x + k

x² -2px -2x + p² + 2p = x² - 2 (p+1)x + (p² + 2p) = x² -4x + k

-2 (p+1) = -4

p+1 = 2

p = 1 ... root 1

p' = 1+2 = 3 ... root 2

k = p² + 2p = 3

check: (x-1) (x-3) = x² - 4x + 3 = x² - 4x + k

Find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints

TEA [102]

Answer:

y= -2x -8

Step-by-step explanation:

I will be writing the equation of the perpendicular bisector in the slope-intercept form which is y=mx +c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

A perpendicular bisector is a line that cuts through the other line perpendicularly (at 90°) and into 2 equal parts (and thus passes through the midpoint of the line).

Let's find the gradient of the given line.

$\boxed{gradient = \frac{y1 -y 2}{x1 - x2} }$

Gradient of given line

$= \frac{1 - ( - 5)}{3 - ( - 9)}$

$= \frac{1 + 5}{3 + 9}$

$= \frac{6}{12}$

$= \frac{1}{2}$

The product of the gradients of 2 perpendicular lines is -1.

(½)(gradient of perpendicular bisector)= -1

Gradient of perpendicular bisector

= -1 ÷(½)

= -1(2)

= -2

Substitute m= -2 into the equation:

y= -2x +c

To find the value of c, we need to substitute a pair of coordinates that the line passes through into the equation. Since the perpendicular bisector passes through the midpoint of the given line, let's find the coordinates of the midpoint.

$\boxed{midpoint = ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \frac{y1 + y2}{2}) }$
