Since the lines u and v are parallel, this means that the angles (10x - 5) = (7x + 4)
and that 7x + 4 + y = 180.

You can solve the first equation for x, then substitute that value into the second equation and rearrange for y.

10x - 5 = 7x +4
3x -5 = 4
3x = 9
x = 3°

∴ 7(3) + 4 + y = 180
25 + y = 180
∴ y = 180 - 25
y = 155°

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

C. 10 times greater

Step-by-step explanation:

every time you move left a number space, the value increases by a multiple of 10x (the opposite is true for moving right)

for example:

1.0

10.0

100.0

10 is 10x greater than 1

100 is 10x greater than 10 or 100x greater than 1

*notice how the number 1 is moving one space to the left

The image below shows where coal deposits are found in the United States. Explain how these coal deposits are energy sinks and c

Rudik [331]

Answer:

It is a little bit trivial:

As we know:

Energy sink: is anything that uses energy.

Energy source: is anything that produces energy.

How the caol deposits can be energy sinks? well, you want to extract the coal from those deposits, and to do it, you need to "use energy" (the type of energy can depend on the extraction method, for example, if you use a pickaxe to extract the coal, you are using mechanical energy)

These coals are potential energy sources because coal is an energy source, potential means that, given some circumstances, something can transform into other things.

So potential energy source in this situation means that those coal deposits can be potential energy when we extract the coal and use it as an energy source.

I like to do these equations backwards and multiply the first number by the opposite of it. ( think 1- the percent as a decimal) however, you can do this by converting the percent into a decimal and then subtracting that from the original number.

Have a great day!
