Find the value of x that would make line p parallel to line r

1 answer:

Snowcat [4.5K]3 years ago

4 0

There is a theorem that says if parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then same-side interior angles are supplementary (add up to 180 degrees).

If lines p and r were parallel, then angles 28 and (3x + 2) would add up to 180 degrees.

(28) + (3x + 2) = 180
3x + 30 = 180
3x = 150
x = 50

arrange the expressions in the correct sequence to rationalize the denominator of the expression -(2)/(\sqrt(x+y-2)-\sqrt(x+y+2)

cupoosta [38]

We have to rationalize the denominator:
$\frac{-2}{ \sqrt{x+y-2} - \sqrt{x+y+2} } = \\ \frac{-2}{ \sqrt{x+y-2} - \sqrt{x+y+2} }* \frac{ \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2} }{ \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2} }= \\ \frac{-2*( \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2}) }{x+y-2-(x+y+2)}= \\ \frac{-2*( \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2}) }{x+y-2-x-y-2}= \\ \frac{-2*( \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2} }{-4}= \\ \frac{ \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2} }{2}$

a bag contains colored tils 3 tiles are red 6 tiles are green 3 tiles are blue a tile will be randomly selected from the bag wha

valkas [14]

Answer:

By:Parrain

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the selected tile will be green is 0.5.

The probability that a tile will be green can be calculated by the formula:

= Number of green tiles / Total number of tiles

Total number of tiles is:

= 3 + 6 + 3

= 12 tiles

Probability of picking green tile is therefore:

= 6 / 12

= 50%

= 0.50

The probability of picking a green tile is 0.50
