4x + 5y = 2(x + 3y)

4x + 5y = 2x + 6y distributed 2 on the right side

2x + 5y = 6y subtracted 2x from both sides

2x = y subtracted 5y from both sides

if y = 2x

then 17(y) = 17(2x)

17y = 34x

Answer: 34x

Determine the unknown angle measures, to the nearest degree, in the diagram provided.

serg [7]

Answer:

a is 53.8°, and b is 36.2°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using sine trig rule:

${ \boxed{ \bf{ \sin(b) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} }}}$

${ \tt{ \sin(b) = \frac{78}{132} }} \\ \\ { \tt{b = { \sin }^{ - 1}( \frac{78}{132} ) }} \\ \\ { \tt{b = 36.2 \degree}}$

Summation of angles of triangle:

${ \tt{a + b + 90 \degree = 180 \degree}} \\ { \tt{a + 36.2 \degree + 90 \degree = 180 \degree}} \\ { \tt{a = (180 - 36.2 - 90) \degree}} \\ { \tt{a = 53.8 \degree}}$

The population of a type of local frog can be found using an infinite geometric series where a1 = 84 and the common ratio is one

aleksley [76]

The series is 84(1+1/5+1/25+...)=84(1/(1-1/5)=84÷4/5=84×5/4=21×5=105. Upper limit is 105.

If you wanted to find the mean height of students in an elementary school,

Kryger [21]

It is not possible to select a single group from the primary school, since being a single group it could not in any way represent the entire primary school.

Choosing a group would provide the average height for that group, not the entire primary.

Assumptions can be made that the course of half of the primary would theoretically give us a more accurate representation, but the objective is to select a number of students from each course and there would be a representative sample of the entire primary.
