Answer:

-8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope by using

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= (9 - -7)/(-2 - 8)

= (9+7)/(-2-8)

= 16/-10

= -8/5

Let
x-------> the width of the rectangular area
y------> the length of the rectangular area

we know that
y=x+15------> equation 1
perimeter of a rectangle=2*[x+y]
2x+2y <= 150-------> equation 2

substitute 1 in 2
2x+2*[x+15] <=150--------> 2x+2x+30 <=150----> 4x <=150-30
4x <= 120---------> x <= 30
the width of the rectangular area is at most 30 ft
y=x+15
for x=30
y=30+15------> y=45
the length of the rectangular area is at most 45 ft

see the attached figure

What is .25 when written in simplest form

seropon [69]

So 0.25 is essentially 25/100. Divide 25 from the top and bottom to get 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know if this is the right way to so it, but I would do it like this

since a triangle has 180 degrees, the angles all have to add up to 180

So 180 = a + b + c

we already know a, its 95

So 180 = 95 + b + c

now we know the equation for b, so we'll just put it there instead of the b, and since the angles are the same, we should put it instead of c too

180 = 95 + (4x-15) + (4x-15)

now subtract 95 from both sides

85 = (4x-15) + (4x-15)

add the xs and numbers together

85 = 8x - 30

now add the 30 to both sides

115 = 8x

divide by 8

your x is 14 3/8 or 14.375 or 115/8

that's not your angle, that's your x
