k = - 2

evaluate h(2), equate to 18 and solve for k

h(2) = - 2k + 14 = 18 ( subtract 14 from both sides )

- 2k = 4 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

k = - 2

h(x)= -kx + 14

18 = -k*2 + 14 since x=2

18 = -2k +14

subtract 14 from each side

4 = -2k

divide by -2

-2 =k

Help pls dont give just the answer pls step by step so i can understand

Answer:

y=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is an isosceles triangle due to opposite sides being congruent, the base angles would also be congruent.

$50 = 2x \\x=25$

plug in 25 in 2x and you would get 50°

Since the sum of a triangle is 180° you could set up an equation $50+50+5y+10=180$

Then, add 50+50=100+10=110

then you would then have $5y+110=180\\$

subtract 110 from 180, leaving you with 70

$5y=70$

then divide and you would get 14

Check:

5(14)+10+50+50= 180

A test is worth 140 points. Ten percent of those points are from one short-answer question. How many points is the short-answer

Vlada [557]

If the total amount of points in a test is 140, and we want to find 10% of those points, we can do the following to figure out how much points the question is worth...

140 points x 10% = 140 x 0.1 = 14 points for the short-answer quesion.
