Answer:   14

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Since BD is parallel to EG, then ∠BCF and ∠EFC are consecutive (same side interior) angles, which means they are supplementary angles.  

∠BCF + ∠EFC = 180

(5x - 66) + (2x + 50) = 180

7x - 16 = 180

7x        = 196

 x        = 28

∠BCF ≅ ∠EFC because they are vertical angles.

∠BCF = ∠EFC

5(28) - 66 = 9y - 52

140 - 66 + 52 = 9y

192 = 9y

14 = y

<h3>Answer: y = 14</h3>

===================================

Explanation:

The two angles involving x add up to 180 degrees. This is because they are same side interior angles (and because the horizontal lines are parallel)

So,

(angle BCF) + (angle EFC) = 180

(5x - 66) + (2x + 50) = 180

5x - 66 + 2x + 50 = 180

7x - 16 = 180

7x - 16+16 = 180+16 ... add 16 to both sides

7x = 196

7x/7 = 196/7 .... divide both sides by 7

x = 28

This will be used to help find y

Notice how the angles BCF and ACD are vertical angles, therefore they are congruent or the same measure

angle ACD = angle BCF

9y - 52 = 5x - 66

9y - 52 = 5*28 - 66 ..... replace x with 28 (since x = 28)

9y - 52 = 140 - 66

9y - 52 = 74

9y - 52+52 = 74+52 .... add 52 to both sides

9y = 126

9y/9 = 126/9 .... divide both sides by 9

y = 14

In a bag, there are 10 black plastic chips, 7 yellow, 5 red, and 3 green. Two chips are drawn at random with replacement.
Alja [10]
When the black chip is drawn, there is already one less chip in the bag; keep this in mind..

the probability of getting a black chip out of the bag is 10/25 or 2/5

now since there is one less chip, there is a total of 24 chips now..

so now the probability of getting a red chip is 5/24 

then you would multiply the two events together and get:

2/5 x 5/24....solve

In terms of paying less in interest, which is more economical for a $150,000 mortgage: a 30-year fixed-rate at 8% or a 20-year f
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

  • 20-year fixed-rate at 7.5%
  • $106,219.32

Step-by-step explanation:

The shorter the term, the lower the amount of interest.

The lower the interest rate, the lower the amount of interest.

The loan that has both a shorter term and a lower interest rate will cost less in interest.

___

The total of payments for the 30-year loan is 396,232.87.

The total of payments for the 20-year loan is 290,013.55.

The amount saved by taking the shorter loan is the difference of these amounts: $106,219.32.

_____

You can use an amortization formula, spreadsheet, or a financial calculator to compute the payments for each loan. The total repayment amount is the product of the monthly payment and the number of them, 360 for the 30-year loan; 240 for the 20-year loan.

Omar grouped the terms and factored the GCF out of the groups of the polynomial 3x3 – 15x2 – 4x + 20. His work is shown.
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

2nd option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x³ - 15x² - 4x + 20

step 1 ( group the first/second and third/fourth terms )

(3x³ - 15x² ) + (- 4x + 20)

step  2 ( factor each group )

3x² (x - 5) - 4(x - 5) ← note factor of - 4 ( not + 4 )

step 3 ( factor out (x - 5) from each term )

(x - 5)(3x² - 4)

A cone has a diameter of 30 in. and a slant height of 17 in. What is the approximate volume of the cone?
Alex777 [14]
We need to find the height of the cylinder
pythagorean theorem
15 is the bottom leg (30/2=15)
17 is hypotonuse
b=height
15^2+b^2=17^2
225+b^2=289
minus 225 both sides
b^2=64
sqrt both sides b=8

Vcone=(1/3)hpir^2
d/2=r=30/2=15
h=8
V=(1/3)8pi15^2
V=(1/3)8pi225
V=8pi75
V=600pi
aprox pi=3.14159256
V=1884.955536 in^3
