Answer:

1)\ x = 5

2)\ x = 14

3) \ x = 15,\ y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Given that M<1 = 95 + 7x and M<2 = 55 - x, you should look on the diagram to see what type of angles M<1 and M<2 are.

On the diagram at the top, angles 1 and 2 appear to be supplementary angles, meaning they add up to 180 degrees. You can apply this information to creating an equation:

  • M<1 + M<2 = 180°
  • (95 + 7x) + (55 - x) = 180

Now you can solve this equation by combining like terms on the left-hand side of the equation.

  • 150+6x=180

Subtract 150 from both sides of the equation in order to isolate the variable x.

  • 6x=30

Divide both sides of the equation by 6 in order to isolate the variable x completely.

  • x=5

2) You are given that M<3 = 5x + 12 and M<4 = 7x - 16, so look on the diagram at the top to find out what type of angles they are.

Angles 3 and 4 appear to be alternate exterior angles, meaning that they are equal to each other as stated by the Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem. You can use this information to make an equation where M<3 = M<4.

  • M<3 = M<4
  • 5x+12=7x-16

Subtract 5x from both sides of the equation, and add 16 to both sides of the equation.

  • 28=2x

Divide both sides of the equation by 2 to isolate the variable x completely.

  • 14=x \rightarrow x=14

3) Given that M<1 = 7y + 16, M<2 = 2x, and M<3 = 4x - 30, look on the diagram at the bottom to find out what type of angles they are.

Since angles 2 and 3 include an "x" variable, you should start with them first  in order to be able to solve for x. Angles 2 and 3 are complementary angles, meaning that they are equal to each other based on the Complementary Angles Theorem. Translate this information into an equation:

  • M<2 = M<3
  • 2x=4x-30

Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation and add 30 to both sides of the equation.

  • 30=2x

Divide both sides of the equation by 2 in order to isolate the variable x completely.

  • 15=x \rightarrow x=15

Now to solve for y - based on the diagram, you can see that angle 1 and angle 2 are vertical angles, meaning that they are equal to each other based on the Vertical Angles Theorem.

You can make them equal to each other in an equation:

  • M<1 = M<2
  • 7y+16=2x

We solved for x and know that it is 15, so substitute 15 into the equation for x.

  • 7y+16=2(15)
  • 7y+16=30

Subtract 16 from both sides of the equation.

  • 7y=14

Divide both sides of the equation by 7 to isolate the variable x.

  • y=2

Hope this helped! Comment below if you have any clarifying questions.

What is the value of g? 25(g−7)=3 Enter your answer in the box
Ratling [72]

First open the bracket by multiplying with 25

25g -25×7 =3

25g -175 =3

Add 175 to both sides

25g -175+175= 3+175

25g = 178


g = 178/25 is the value.

What is the sell tax of 8.00 dollars
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

A tax of 7.5 percent was added to the product to make it equal to 8.6. So, divide 7.5 by 100 to get 0.075. Divide the final amount by the value above to find the original amount before the tax was added. In this example: 8.6 / 1.075 = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Not sure if this will help but yea and this from google

What's the equation for circumference
OleMash [197]

If youknow the diameter of the circle, then
                                                                     Circumference = (π) x (Diameter).

If youknow the radius of the circle, then
                                                                     Circumference = (π/2) x(radius).

If you know the area of the circle, then
                                                                     Circumference= 2 √ (π A) .
