Answer:

∠ WZX = 50°

XW is not an altitude.

Step-by-step explanation:

16. See the attached figure.

XW is the angle bisector of ∠ YXZ, hence, ∠ WXY = ∠ WXZ

Now, given that ∠ YXZ = 8x + 34 and ∠ WXY = 10x - 13

Hence, ∠ YXZ = 2 ∠ WXY

⇒ 8x + 34 = 2(10x - 13)

⇒ 8x + 34 = 20x - 26

⇒ 12x = 60

⇒ x = 5.

Hence, ∠ XZY = ∠ WZX = 10x = 50° (Answer)

Now, ∠ WXZ = ∠ WXY = 10x - 13 = 37°

Hence, from Δ WXZ,

∠ WZX + ∠ WXZ + ∠ XWZ = 180°

⇒ 50° + 37° + ∠ XWZ = 180°

⇒ ∠ XWZ = 93° ≠ 90°

Hence, XW is not an altitude. (Answer)

A closing is March 5 for a rental property with an annual tax bill of $2800. Calculate and show the debit and credits for the ta
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

The debit and credits for the tax proration will be as follows:

Debit seller for $483.29; and Credit buyer for $483.29.

Step-by-step explanation:

The assignment of how much is owed to the responsible party is the major reason of a proration.

For the days owned by the seller, the buyer needs money from the seller since the buyer will pay the taxes at end of the year.

Amount per day = Annual tax bill / 365 = $2800 / 365 = $7.67

Total number of days from January 1 to a day before March 5 = Number of days in January + Number of days in February + Number of days from March 1 to March 4 = 31 + 28 + 4 = 63

Amount the seller owes for the time he owned = Amount per day * Total number of days from January 1 to a day before March 5 = $7.67 * 63 = $483.29

Therefore, the debit and credits for the tax proration will be as follows:

Debit seller for $483.29; and Credit buyer for $483.29.

In 25 minutes, Jay can run 10 laps around the track. Write an equation to represent the relationship.
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The equation is y=\frac{2}{5} x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent the number of laps Jay run, and x the number of minutes it takes him to run those laps.

We know that it it takes Jay 25 minutes to run 10 laps; therefore, the number of laps jay runs per minute is:

\frac{10\:laps}{25\:minutes} =\frac{2}{5}\:laps/min

So, if Jay runs for x minutes, the number of laps y he will run be:

\boxed{y=\frac{2}{5}x}
