.026 because 2.6%*100 is 0.026
C is the correct answer. An equilateral triangle is a type of triangle.
Answer:
A) y=.50x+15
B) The graph would be a line starting in the bottom left corner and rising to the upper right, the start of the y axis would be 1, as it represents the miles, and the start of the x axis would be 0.50, as it represents the amount of money charged per mile.
C) If you apply the formula y=mx+b to the equation, you will see that 0.50 is the slope, and 15 is the y-intercept.
The acute angles of a right triangle are complementary, so
α + β = 90
(5x/3 +20) + (2x/3) + 14) = 90 . . . . . . substitute given values
7x/3 +34 = 90 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
7x/3 = 56 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 34
x = (3/7)*56 = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 3/7
Then the value of α is ...
α = 5*24/3 +20 = 60
