In ABC, what is the measure of angle B?
NeX [460]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two remote interior angles (a remote interior angle is the interior angle that is not supplementary to the exterior angle given -- in this case A and B are remote angles) equals the exterior angle.

In This case A + B = 140

A = x + 2

B = 2x

x +2 + 2x = 140

3x + 2 = 140                     Subtract 2 from both sides

3x = 138                           Divide by 3

x = 138/3

x = 46

<B = 2x

<B = 2*46

<B = 92

Use the discriminate to determine the number and the nature of the solutions of the giving equation.
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Since b^2 -4ac = 256 we have 2 real distinct root roots

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2+12x=7

We need to subtract 7 to get it in the proper form

4x^2+12x-7=7-7

4x^2+12x-7=0

The discriminant is b^2 -4ac

when the equation is ax^2 +bx+c

so a =4   b=12 and c=-7

(12)^2 - 4(4)(-7)

144 +112

256

If b^2 -4ac > 0 we have 2 real distinct roots

If b^2 -4ac = 0 we have one real root

If b^2 -4ac < 0 we have two complex root

Since b^2 -4ac = 256 we have 2 real distinct root roots

Evaluate each expression using the values m = 7, r = 8, and t = 2.
user100 [1]

So I'll walk through the first 2. Then please try the other ones and let me know if you run into more problems.

5m-6

If m is equal to 7, then replace m with 7.

5(7)-6

5x7=35 so the expression is now 35-6. Solve.

35-6=29

So that was the first one.

4m+t

We just do what we do with the first problem.

4(7)+(2)

4x7=28 so the expression is 28+2.

28+2=28

---

hope it helps

p.s. When there is subtraction, add. When there is division, multiply to cancel that out. When there is multiplication, divide to cancel. etc.
