Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find m∠B and m∠C by solving for x. Since the sum of interior angles in a triangle is 180°, we know that:

60 + 3x - 2 + 2x + 7 = 180

5x + 65 = 180

5x = 115

x = 23° so m∠B = 3(23) - 2 = 67° and m∠C = 2(23) + 7 = 53°. The longest side of a triangle is always opposite to the largest angle of the triangle, and since m∠B is the largest, we know that the side opposite to ∠B is the longest. That side is AC.

the linear equation y=2x represents the cost y of x pounds of pears. which order pair lies on the graph of the equation? A. (2,4

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

A. (2, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The ordered pairs represent (x, y). Since you have y =2x, this is the same as ...

(x, 2x)

That is, the second number in the pair needs to be twice the first number in the pair. Since you know your times tables, you know that this is not the case for (1, 0), (10, 5) or (4, 12). Those values of x would give (1, 2), (10, 20), (4, 8).

It is the case that you have (x, 2x) for (2, 4).

The point (2, 4) lies on the graph of y = 2x.

If a person puts 1 cent in a piggy bank on the first day, 2 cents on the second day, 3 cents on the third day, and so forth, how

cluponka [151]

This is an arithmetic sequence with the common difference being 1

and if u have 1 cent on day 1 and 2 cents on day 2....then on day 40, u would have 40 cents....but we need the sum of all the days..

the sum of an arithmetic sequence can be found using the formula :
sn = n(a1 + an) / 2
n = number of terms = 40
a1 = first term = 1
an = last term = 40

now we sub
s(40) = 40(1 + 40) / 2
s(40) = 40(41)/2
s(40) = 1640/2
s(40) = 820.....820 cents = $ 8.20 <== the sum
