<h3>Answers:</h3><h3>x = 12</h3><h3>Angle B = 45 degrees</h3>

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

Explanation:

Angles A and B are alternate exterior angles.

Due to the parallel lines, alternate exterior angles are congruent

A = B

5x-15 = 2x+21

5x-2x = 21+15

3x = 36

x = 36/3

x = 12

Use this x value to find the measure of angle B

angle B = 2x+21

angle B = 2*12+21

angle B = 24+21

angle B = 45 degrees

As a check,

angle A = 5x-15

angle A = 5*12+15

angle A = 60-15

angle A = 45 degrees

Since A and B are both 45 degrees, this confirms the correct x value

The ratio between the volumes of two cubes is 125 to 216. what is the ratio between their respective surface areas?
MAVERICK [17]
Volume of a cube is length * width * height. Because it's a cube, all of these lengths are the same measurement so rather than doing V = l*w*h, we can do one of the measurements cubed, let's call it x.

So Volume = x³. So if we are given the volume, we can the length by doing the cube root. 

∛125 = 5
∛216 = 6

Surface area of a cube = 6x². So now we plug both of these measurements into the formula. 

For 5:

SA = 6(5)² = 6(25) = 150

For 6:

SA = 6(6)² = 6(36) = 216

The ratio of their surface areas is 150:216 or if you simplify it by dividing both by the GCF of 6, 25:36

Solve the system using elimination.
Molodets [167]

Answer:

(-1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 5y = -16  [Equation 1]

-x + 3y = 10 [Equation 2]

<u>Adding both equations</u>

  • x - x - 5y + 3y = -16 + 10
  • -2y = -6
  • y = 3

  • x - 5(3) = -16
  • x - 15 = -16
  • x = -1

<u>Solution</u> : (-1, 3)
