For this question, it would be most effective to use an algebraic expression to more easily show what the question is asking. If we use the variable "k" to show the distance in km that he cycled on Sunday, we know that the amount he cycled on Saturday equals k + 12, and the amount that he cycled on the weekend should be the amount of Saturday plus the amount of Sunday. If we write this as an equation we say:
k + k + 12 = 38
=> 2k + 12 = 38
Now we can just rearrange and solve for k:
=> 2k = 26
=> k = 26/2 = 13
Therefore Patrick cycled 13km on Sunday
To solve the answer, we just add 12km to the value for Sunday like so:
12 + 13 = the amount he cycled on Sunday
Hope this helped, remember to please try and understand the maths as well as the answer :))
<h3>Answer: Choice C</h3>
Here's how the verification would look like
using the identity here
Answer:
x=72
y=54
Step-by-step explanation:
1st question. y=54 because it is a bisector of the 108 degree angles. (a polygon's interior angles add to number of sides minus 2 times 180)
There are two ys, so they add up to 108. A triangle's interior angles add to 180. 180-108 =72 x=72
2nd question, x is 72 ( it says x is the same measure) so 180-72=2y.
y still equals 54
-3x + 6 = 18...subtract 6 from both sides
-3x = 18 - 6
-3x = 12...divide both sides by -3
x = -12/3 reduces to -4 <===
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to note that this is an equation, in which we can solve for x.
We can use a calculator to find the tangent of 39 - we type 39 into the calculator then press the "TAN" button to find it's tangent. We find that to be around 0.81.
We now have the formula simplified down to 
. To solve for x, we want to isolate it on one side, so we can multiply both sides by 68 to get rid of the fraction.
We know have 
, so x is approximately 55.
Hope this helped!
