First, find out x
x+15+2x+15=180
3x+30=180
3x=150
x=50
so the two angels are x+15=65(let's name is ∠5 for convenience), and ∠6= 2x+15=115
notice the two inner lines are marked as congruent, so
∠4=∠5=65
∠1=180-∠4-∠5=180-65-65=50
Name the right bottom angle ∠7, ∠3=∠7 and ∠3+∠7=the exterior angle 100 degree, therefore, ∠3=50
∠2+∠3=∠4, therefore, ∠2=∠4-∠3=65-50=15
∠1=50, ∠2=15, ∠3=50, ∠4=65

What is the radius and center of the circle given by the equation (x-5)^{2}+(y+2)^{2} = 81/4

artcher [175]

Answer:

The center is (5, -2) and the radius is 9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle can be written by

(x-h) ^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2

where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius

(x-5)^{2}+(y+2)^{2} = 81/4

( (x-5)^{2}+(y- -2)^{2} = (9/2)^2

The center is (5, -2) and the radius is 9/2

The sum of a number, 1/6 of that number, 2 1/2 of that number, and 7 is 12 1/2. Find the number.

Tema [17]

Answer:

2 $\frac{1}{16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The question state that; the sum of a number, 1/6 of that number, 2 1/2 of that number, and 7 is 12 1/2. Find the number.

First, we need to interpret and represent this statement mathematically

Let n be the number.

The sum means 'addition'

1/6 of that number is 1/6 of n = 1/6 × n = $\frac{n}{6}$

2 1/2 of that number is 2 1/2 of n = 2 1/2 × n = 5/2 × n = $\frac{5n}{2}$

So the question says that, when we add; $\frac{n}{6}$ , $\frac{5n}{2}$ and 7 all together, the value is 12 1/2

That is;

$\frac{n}{6}$ + $\frac{5n}{2}$ + 7 = 12 1/2

$\frac{n}{6}$ + $\frac{5n}{2}$ + 7 = $\frac{25}{2}$ ( changing 12 1/2 to improper fraction will give $\frac{25}{2}$ )

So we can now go ahead and solve for n

$\frac{n}{6}$ + $\frac{5n}{2}$ + 7 = $\frac{25}{2}$

subtract 7 from both-side of the equation

$\frac{n}{6}$ + $\frac{5n}{2}$ = $\frac{25}{2}$ - 7

$\frac{n + 15n}{6}$ = $\frac{25 -14}{2}$

$\frac{16n}{6}$ = $\frac{11}{2}$

$\frac{16n}{6}$ can be reduced to give us $\frac{8n}{3}$

$\frac{8n}{3}$ = $\frac{11}{2}$

Cross multiply

8n × 2 = 11× 3

16n = 33

Divide both-side of the equation by 16

$\frac{16n}{16}$ = $\frac{33}{16}$

(On the left-hand side of the equation, 16 will cancel-out 16 leaving us with just, while on the right-hand side of the equation 33 will be divided by 16)

n = $\frac{33}{16}$ = $2\frac{1}{16}$
