Answer:

x = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure and the fact that AB and CD are straight lines we can see that:

30° + 2x + ∠DOB = 180° (eq. 1)

x + ∠DOB = 90° (eq. 2)

Subtracting equation 2 to equation 1 we get:

30° + 2x + ∠DOB - (x + ∠DOB) = 180° - 90°

30° + x = 90°

x = 90° - 30°

x = 60°

A line passes through the points (–3, –4) and (6, 2). What number is the x-intercept?

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\bold{METHOD\ 1}$

$\text{The formula of a slope:}\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\text{x-intercept:}\ (x,\ 0).\\\\\text{Susbtitute the coordinates of the points to the formula of a slope}\\\\(-3,\ -4),\ (6,\ 2),\ (x,\ 0):\\\\m=\dfrac{2-(-4)}{6-(-3)}=\dfrac{2+4}{6+3}=\dfrac{6}{9}=\dfrac{6:3}{9:3}=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\m=\dfrac{0-2}{x-6}=\dfrac{-2}{x-6}\\\\\text{Therefore we have the equation:}\\\\\dfrac{-2}{x-6}=\dfrac{2}{3}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\2(x-6)=(-2)(3)\\\\2(x-6)=-6\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\x-6=-3\qquad\text{add 6 to both sides}\\\\x=3$

$\bold{METHOD\ 2}\\\\\text{Look at the picture.}$

Mark points in the coordinate system.

Lead a line through these points.

Which best describes the relationship between the successive terms in the sequence shown?

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

(C)The common ratio is –2.0

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given sequence: </u>

2.4, –4.8, 9.6, –19.2

This is not AP as the difference in terms is not common

<u>This is GP with the common ratio of -2 as:</u>

-19.2/9.6 = 9.6/ -4/8 = -4.8/2.4 = -2

Correct choice is (C)
