Wouldn't she be 8 since 8x3 is 24 and 24-5 is 19 which equals to 43 if 24 and 19 are added together.

Furkat [3]

Answer:

165 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

determine the value of x for which r parallels s. then find the measure of angle 1 and the measure of angle 2measure angle 1= 50

Maslowich

According to the picture, angles 1 and 2 have the same measure because they are corresponding angles. Make equal both expressions for 1 and 2 and find x.

$\begin{gathered} 50-2x=110-42x \\ 42x-2x=110-50 \\ 40x=60 \\ x=\frac{60}{40} \\ x=\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}$

x is 3/2. Replace this value in both expression to find the measure of each angle.

$\begin{gathered} \measuredangle1=50-2x \\ \measuredangle1=50-2(\frac{3}{2}) \\ \measuredangle1=50-3 \\ \measuredangle1=47 \\ \measuredangle2=110-42x \\ \measuredangle2=110-42(\frac{3}{2}) \\ \measuredangle2=110-63 \\ \measuredangle2=47 \end{gathered}$

The measure of these angles is 47°

ehidna [41]

Answer:

y to 0.78y is a decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

y by itself can also be written as 1y, and 0.78y is less than 1, thus y to 0.78y is a decrease.

Find the distance between the complex numbers. z1 = 9 - 9i z2 = 10 - 9i

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The distance between the two given complex numbers = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Step(i):-

Given Z₁ = 9 - 9 i and Z₂ = 10 -9 i

Let A and B represent complex numbers Z₁ and Z₂ respectively on the argand plane

⇒ A = Z₁ = x₁ +i y₁ = 9 - 9 i and

B = Z₂ = x₂+ i y₂ = 10 -9 i

Let (x₁ , y₁) = ( 9, -9)

(x₂, y₂) = (10, -9)

Step(ii):-

The distance between the two points are

A B = $\sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2} - y_{1})^{2} }$

A B = $\sqrt{(10 - 1)^{2}+(-9 - (-9))^{2} }$

AB = $\sqrt{(9)^{2} +(-9+9)^{2} }$

AB = √81 = 9

Conclusion:-

The distance between the two given complex numbers = 9
