Answer:

33%

Step-by-step explanation:

(13*10)+(83*4)=(14*x)

The sum of two consecutive odd integers is 84. Find the two integers.

Rudik [331]

Answer: n + (n + 2) = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

If n is the smallest integer, the other integer must be two more than that, because it has to be odd. The two numbers add up to 84, so the other side of the equation is 84.

In ΔABC, if m ∠A = m∠C, m∠B = ß (where ß is an acute angle), and BC = x, which expression gives the length of b, the side opposi

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The length of b is $\sqrt{2x^2(1-cos\beta)}$ .

Step by step explanation:

Given information: In ΔABC, ∠A =∠C, ∠B = ß (where ß is an acute angle), and BC = x.

Since two angles are same therefore triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle and side AB and BC are congruent.

$AB=BC=x$

According to Law of cosine

$b^2=a^2+c^2-2ac\cos B$

$b^2=x^2+x^2-2(x)(x)\cos \beta$

$b^2=2x^2-2x^2\cos \beta$

$b^2=2x^2(1-\cos \beta)$

$\sqrt{2x^2(1-cos\beta)}$

Therefore the length of b is $\sqrt{2x^2(1-cos\beta)}$ .

Last week marcella earned $432. Turing that week, she worked 8 hours for 4 days and 4 hours on one day. what was Marcella's pay

Step2247 [10]

The answer is approx. 10.8 per hour.

If you want to round it up, it would be 11. I prefer you not to round though as this is Money. Money should have decimals included.

QS¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ bisects ∠PQR . If m∠PQS = 5x and m∠RQS = 2x + 6, then what is m∠PQR ? m∠PQR is

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

$PQR = 20$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Bisector: QS

$PQS = 5x$

$RQS = 2x + 6$

Required

Determine PQR

Since PQR is bisected to PQS and RQS, we have that

$PQS = RQS$

Substitute expressions for PQS and RQS

$5x = 2x + 6$

Collect Like Terms

$5x - 2x = 6$

$3x = 6$

Divide both sides by 3

$x = 2$

Solving for PQR;

$PQR = PQS + RQS$

$PQR = 5x + 2x + 6$

$PQR = 7x + 6$

Substitute 2 for x

$PQR = 7 * 2 + 6$

$PQR = 14 + 6$

$PQR = 20$
