First solve for the other angles.
You know one angle is 15º.
The one across from it is also 15º since it is a vertical angle to the known 15º angle.
Both of those together gets 30º.
The whole thing is 360º, so just subtract 30 from 360 and divide.
360 - 30 = 330
Do the same for the 15x angle.
The one under/across to it is a vertical angle so is also 15xº.
Now you are left with 30xº = 330.
Just divide now.
330 / 30 = 11
x = 11
15x = 165

Checking your work:
15x = 165
15x = 165
15
15
Those are the angles.
Add those numbers together and make sure it adds up to 360º.
165 + 165 + 15 + 15 = 360
So this is correct.

Which formula can be used to describe the sequence?

alexdok [17]

Answer:

f(x+1) = -3/4 × f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

first of all, the sign of the numbers in the sequence is alternating. so, there must be a "-" involved.

that eliminates the first and third answer options.

and the absolute values of the numbers in the sequence are going down. |f(x+1)| < |f(x)|

that eliminates the fourth answer option, as this says that

|f(x)| < |f(x+1)|. and that is the opposite of how the actual sequence behaves.

Convert y + 3 = -3(x + 5) to standard form.

emmasim [6.3K]

Hi there!

$y + 3 = - 3(x + 5)$
First we need to work out the parenthesis, which can for instance be done using rainbow technique.

$y + 3 = - 3x - 15$
Now subtract 3 from both sides.

$y = - 3x - 18$
And finally add 3x to both sides.

$3x + y = - 18$
The 4th answer choice is correct.

cos θ = $\frac{-4\sqrt{65} }{65}$ , sin θ = $\frac{-7\sqrt{65} }{65}$ , cot θ = 4/7, sec θ = $\frac{-\sqrt{65} }{4}$ , cosec θ = $\frac{-\sqrt{65} }{7}$
