Answer: Michael is 72 while Ann is 36.

Step-by-step explanation: Let X represent Michael's age and Y represent Ann's. From the first sentence,

Y=2X. (eqn 1)

14+X=Y-22 (eqn 2)

X-Y=-22-14

X-Y=-36; But Y=2X.

Therefore, X-2X=-36; -X=-36; X=36. Hence, Y=2*36; Y=72.

If angle PQR and angle RQS form a linear pair and angle PQR =5x+5 and angle RQS =11x-65 then angle PQR=?
Mama L [17]

Answer:

m<PQR = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Points to remember</u>

Sum angles in a linear pair is 180

<u>To find the value of x</u>

It is given that, angle PQR and angle RQS are linear pairs, and

m< PQR =5x+5 and m<RQS =11x-65

m<PQR + m<RQS = 180

5x + 5 + 11x - 65 = 180

16x -60 = 180

16x = 180 + 60

16x = 240

x = 15

<u>To find the value of angle PQR</u>

m<PQR = 5x + 5

 = 5*15 + 5

 = 75 + 5 = 80

Therefore m<PQR = 80°

Please answer. In parallelogram WXYZ, diagonals WY and XZ intersect at point A. Give WA=x^2-48 and AY=x^2-6x. What is WY? Show y
netineya [11]

The diagonals of a parallelogram are congruent

The length WY is 32

<h3>How to determine the length WY</h3>

Given that:

WA = x^2 - 48 and

AY = x^2 - 6x

Then, we have:

x^2 - 48 = x^2 - 6xdiagonal

Subtract x^2 from both sides

- 48 =- 6x

Divide both sides by -6

x = 8

The length WY is calculated as:

WY=2 * WA

So, we have:

WY=2 * [x^2 - 48]

Substitute 8 for x

WY=2 * [8^2 - 48]

Simplify

WY=32

Hence, the length WY is 32

PLEASE HELP!!

A) Here, sum of two non-adjacent angles: 52 + 25 = 77
Now, ∠3 = 180 - 77   [ sum of all angles in a triangle is 180 ]
so, ∠3 = 103

Now, ∠3 + ∠4 = 180  [ Supplementary angles ]
So, ∠4 = 180 - ∠3
∠4 = 180 - 103 = 77
∠4 = 77 [ which is sum of two non-adjacent angles ]

....Hence proved.

b) m∠4 = 77 
[ Solved in previous section ]

Hope this helps!
