As was the case in your previous question, this problem involves setting two ratios equal to each other. We call such an equation a proportion.

 

16 miles   =   x miles

(1/2) inch      2 3/4 inches

 

x = (11/4) * 16 = (11/4) * 2 * 16 = 88 miles

      (1/2)

∠A and ∠B are complementary. If ∠A= 32 find m∠B.
rewona [7]

Answer:

Your answer is 58

Step-by-step explanation:

This is true because complementary means both angles add to 90 degrees. So if you know one is 32 then you subtract 90-32 which will give you 58 (angle B).

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

'?' is <u>88°.</u>

<h2><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h2>
  • First, we work out the final angle of the left triangle, which has a total of 180°. To do this we take 40° and 66° from 180°, giving us <u>72°</u>
  • Because there is a straight line along the bottom (which will total 180°), we take both 72° and 56° from 180°, giving us <u>52°</u>, which is the bottom left angle of the right triangle.
  • Finally, to work out '?', we take 52° and 40° from 180° to get our final answer of <u>88°.</u>

Given the binomials (x-1), (x-3), (x+3), (x+5), which one is the factor of f(x) = x^3 + 6x^2 + 12x +35?
kari74 [83]
The given polynomial is
f(x) = x³ + 6x² + 12x + 35

According to the Remainder Theorem, if x = a is a zero, then
f(a) = 0, and (x-a) is a factor.

Test (x-1):
f(1) = 1 + 6 +12 + 35 = 54   
Not a factor.

Test (x-3):
f(3) = 3³ +6*3² + 12*3 + 35 = 152
Not a factor.

Test (x+3):
f(-3) = (-3)³ + 6*(-3)² + 12*(-3) + 35 = 26
Not a factor.

Test (x+5):
(-5)³ + 6*(-5)² + 12*(-5) + 35 = 0
It is a factor.

Answer: (x+5) is a factor.

Someone pls help solve this
Inessa [10]
S = 3/5 or 0.6
explanation
-4/0.8 = 2/s-1
divide the numbers on the left: -5 = 2/s-1
multiply both side by s-1: -5(s-1)=2
simplify: -5s + 5 =2
gather like terms: -5s= 2 - 5
simplify: -5s= -3
divide both sides by -5: x=3/5
