Answer:

7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiple: 9 * 2 = 18

Divide: the result of step No. 1 : 3 = 18 : 3 = 6

Multiple: 3 * 5 = 15

Divide: the result of step No. 3 : 6 = 15 : 6 = 2.5 = 5

Subtract: the result of step No. 2 - the result of step No. 4 = 6 - 5

= 6

- 5

= 6 · 2

1 · 2

- 5

= 12

- 5

= 12 - 5

= 7

I dont know if this makes sence though

Find the measure of y. Polygon Angle-Sum theorems

Alchen [17]

Answer:

z = 70°

y = 103°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

110° + z° = 180° [Supplementary angles]

z = 180 - 110

z = 70°

Since sum of interior angles of a polygon = (n - 2)×180°

where n = number of sides of the polygon

For a quadrilateral (n = 4),

Sum of interior angles = (4 - 2) × 180°

= 360°

z° + y° + 100° + 87° = 360°

70° + y° + 187° = 360°

y = 103°

Therefore, measure of the angles x = 70° and y = 103°.

Х- а<br>x-b<br>If f(x) = b.x-a÷b-a + a.x-b÷a - b<br>Prove that: f (a) + f(b) = f (a + b)

GenaCL600 [577]

Given:

Consider the given function:

$f(x)=\dfrac{b\cdot(x-a)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot(x-b)}{a-b}$

To prove:

$f(a)+f(b)=f(a+b)$

Solution:

We have,

$f(x)=\dfrac{b\cdot(x-a)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot (x-b)}{a-b}$

Substituting $x=a$ , we get

$f(a)=\dfrac{b\cdot(a-a)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot (a-b)}{a-b}$

$f(a)=\dfrac{b\cdot 0}{b-a}+\dfrac{a}{1}$

$f(a)=0+a$

$f(a)=a$

Substituting $x=b$ , we get

$f(b)=\dfrac{b\cdot(b-a)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot (b-b)}{a-b}$

$f(b)=\dfrac{b}{1}+\dfrac{a\cdot 0}{a-b}$

$f(b)=b+0$

$f(b)=b$

Substituting $x=a+b$ , we get

$f(a+b)=\dfrac{b\cdot(a+b-a)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot (a+b-b)}{a-b}$

$f(a+b)=\dfrac{b\cdot (b)}{b-a}+\dfrac{a\cdot (a)}{-(b-a)}$

$f(a+b)=\dfrac{b^2}{b-a}-\dfrac{a^2}{b-a}$

$f(a+b)=\dfrac{b^2-a^2}{b-a}$

Using the algebraic formula, we get

$f(a+b)=\dfrac{(b-a)(b+a)}{b-a}$ $[\because b^2-a^2=(b-a)(b+a)]$

$f(a+b)=b+a$

$f(a+b)=a+b$ [Commutative property of addition]

Now,

$LHS=f(a)+f(b)$

$LHS=a+b$

$LHS=f(a+b)$

$LHS=RHS$

Hence proved.
