Answer:

65°

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that for a triangle, the exterior angle (130 deg in this case) is equal to the sum of its remote interior angles (also see attached)

this means that

130° = y° + y°

2y° = 130°

y = 130/2 = 65°

2[3(4^2 +1)] - 2^3.

Sav [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Do parentheses first, exponents inside them first. 4^2 = 16, + 1 is 17, then multiply by the 3 outside to get 51, then multiply by the 2 outside that to get 102, - 2^3 which is -8 = 94

Chong thinks of a Number adds 10 and then multiplies the number so obtained by 3, and get 42. If the number is n then write an e

eimsori [14]

Answer:

The equation for this is: $3(n+10) = 42$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the number though is n.

Adds 10:

This means that now we have: $n + 10$

Multiplies by 3:

This means that now we have: $3(n+10)$

Gets 42:

This means that: $3(n+10) = 42$

Find x? In 3x - In(x - 4) = ln(2x - 1) +ln3

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

$x = \displaystyle \frac{5 + \sqrt{17}}{2}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Because $3\, x$ is found in the input to a logarithm function in the original equation, it must be true that $3\, x > 0$ . Therefore, $x > 0$ .

Similarly, because $(x - 4)$ and $(2\, x - 1)$ are two other inputs to the logarithm function in the original equation, they should also be positive. Therefore, $x > 4$ .

Let $a$ and $b$ represent two positive numbers (that is: $a > 0$ and $b > 0$ .) The following are two properties of logarithm:

$\displaystyle \ln (a) + \ln(b) = \ln\left(a \cdot b\right)$ .

$\displaystyle \ln (a) - \ln(b) = \ln\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)$ .

Apply these two properties to rewrite the original equation.

Left-hand side of this equation:

$\begin{aligned}&\ln(3\, x) - \ln(x - 4)= \ln\left(\frac{3\, x}{x -4}\right)\end{aligned}$

Right-hand side of this equation:

$\ln(2\, x- 1) + \ln(3) = \ln\left(3 \left(2\, x - 1\right)\right)$ .

Equate these two expressions:

$\begin{aligned}\ln\left(\frac{3\, x}{x -4}\right) = \ln(3(2\, x - 1))\end{aligned}$ .

The natural logarithm function $\ln$ is one-to-one for all positive inputs. Therefore, for the equality $\begin{aligned}\ln\left(\frac{3\, x}{x -4}\right) = \ln(3(2\, x - 1))\end{aligned}$ to hold, the two inputs to the logarithm function have to be equal and positive. That is:

$\displaystyle \frac{3\ x}{x - 4} = 3\, (2\, x - 1)$ .

Simplify and solve this equation for $x$ :

$x^2 - 5\, x + 2 = 0$ .

There are two real (but not rational) solutions to this quadratic equation: $\displaystyle \frac{5 + \sqrt{17}}{2}$ and $\displaystyle \frac{5 - \sqrt{17}}{2}$ .

However, the second solution, $\displaystyle \frac{5 - \sqrt{17}}{2}$ , is not suitable. The reason is that if $x = \displaystyle \frac{5 - \sqrt{17}}{2}$ , then $(x - 4)$ , one of the inputs to the logarithm function in the original equation, would be smaller than zero. That is not acceptable because the inputs to logarithm functions should be greater than zero.

The only solution that satisfies the requirements would be $\displaystyle \frac{5 + \sqrt{17}}{2}$ .

Therefore, $x = \displaystyle \frac{5 + \sqrt{17}}{2}$ .

Solve the equation for x. x2 = 576 /\ || is supposed to be 2 over x

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

288

Step-by-step explanation:

2/x = 576

you have to make the x by itself so you would have to multiply 1/2 to 2/x for the first part

then you would carry the 1/2 over to 576 and multiply that by 1/2

the answer would become x = 288

2. Two angles have a common vertex but no common side. How can you tell whether the angles are vertical angles?

Maksim231197 [3]

Explanation:

The angles are vertical angles if the opposites of the rays forming one of the angles are the rays forming the other angle.

More formally, if V is the common vertex, and ...

R is a point on one of the rays forming Angle 1
S is a point on the ray that is the opposite of ray VR
T is a point on the other ray forming Angle 1
U is a point on the ray that is the opposite of ray VT

Then angle RVT and angle SVU are vertical angles.

___

Another way to say this is that points R, V, S are collinear, as are points T, V, U, and the two angles of interest are RVT and SVU.

If the above conditions cannot be met, then the angles are not vertical angles.
