Find the measures of the angles of a right triangle where one of the two acute angles measures 5 times the other

Answer:

Since it is a right angle, you know that the angle measures 90 degrees. Since one acute angle measures 5x (times) the other, you would set it up in equation format as 5x + x = 90.

5x + x = 6x, so

6x = 90

you divide both both sides by 6 (90/6) = 15

To find the measure of the angle that is 5x (times) the other, you do 5(15) = 75 degrees and the other angle is 15 degrees, which adds up to 90 degrees.

ki77a [65]

First, let's find the amount of calories in a 1 inch pizza:

570/6=95

Knowing this, we just multiply the calorie count of a one inch pizza by 14 to find the calorie count of a 14 inch pizza:

14*95=1330

There are 1330 calories in a 14 inch pizza.

hoa [83]

Answer:

The second plot.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached, the scatter plots are shown.

The second plot has minimum residuals and its residuals are randomly distributed. Residual is computed as follows:

residual = measured - predicted

It easy to see that residuals of the first option are greater than the second option.

Line of the second option is better than those from third and fourth options because residuals of the second option are randomly distributed, while in the third option, residuals are mostly negative; and in the fourth option, they are mostly positive.
