Answer:

2\ ft\ 7\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find the difference convert the dimensions to inches

Remember that

1\ ft=12\ in

so

katie's younger sister hight is

2\ ft\ 9\ in=2*12+9=33\ in

katie's hight is

5\ ft\ 4\ in=5*12+4=64\ in

Find the difference

64\ in-33\ in=31\ in

Convert to feet and inches

31\ in=31/12=(24/12)+(7/12)=2+(7/12)=2\ ft\ 7\ in

Answer:

w==77

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 2 opposite interior angles equals the exterior angle.

w-36 +w-20=w+21

combine like terms: 2w-56=w+21

subtract w from both sides: w-56=21

add 56 to both sides: <u>w=77</u>

Identify the theorem or postulate that is related to the measures of the angles in the pair, and find the unknown angle measures
aleksley [76]

Angles formed when two parallel are intersected by a common transversal include, corresponding, alternate interior and exterior, same-side interior, and vertically opposite angles

The correct option is Same–Side Int. ∠s Thm. m∠1 = 30°, m∠5 = 150°

The reason the selection is correct is as follows:

The given angles are;

m∠1 = (30·x - 30)°. m∠5 = (40·x + 70)°

∠1, and ∠5, are located on the same side of the transversal and are both formed on the interior side of the parallel lines

Therefore, they are same–side interior angles

Same side interior angles theorem states that same side interior angles formed between parallel lines are supplementary

Therefore, we have;

m∠1 + m∠5 = 180°

Which gives;

(30·x - 30)° + (40·x + 70)° = 180°

(70·x + 40)° = 180°

70·x = 180° - 40° = 140°

x = \dfrac{140^{\circ}}{70} = 2^{\circ}

m∠1 = (30·x - 30)° = (30 × 2 - 30)° = 30°

m∠1 = 30°

m∠5 = (40·x + 70)° = (40 × 2 + 70)° = 150°

m∠5 = 150°

The correct option is therefore;

Same-Side Int. ∠s Thm. m∠1 = 30°, m∠5 = 150°

An elevator can hold a maximum of 1500 pounds. An average child weighs 75 pounds and the average adult weighs 150 pounds. The el
CaHeK987 [17]

<u>Let's take this problem step-by-step</u>:

<u>Let's first set up some variables</u>:

  • c: # of children
  • a: # of adults

<u>Let's examine the information given:</u>

  • Elevator can hold a maximum of 1500 pounds

          ⇒ average child is 75 pounds

          ⇒ average adult is 150 pounds

                 ⇒<em> therefore</em>: 75c + 150a\leq 1500

  • Elevator can fit no more than 14 people

          ⇒ <em>therefore</em>: c + a \leq 14

<u>Let's graph the equations</u>:

 75c+150a\leq 1500\\c+a\leq 14

    ⇒ look at the image attached

<u>The point at which the two graphs intersect:</u>

  ⇒ <em>is the solution that represents the amount of children and adults and </em>

<em>       their combine weight</em>

<em />

<u><em>With the horizontal axis being the # of children and vertical axis being the # of adults</em></u><em>:</em>

<em>  ⇒ the </em><em>solution is 8 children and 6 adults</em>

<em></em>

<u>Answer: 8 children and 6 adults</u>

<u></u>

Hope that helped!

Find the Slope of the line through each pair of points: (-4,11),(1,-9)
kogti [31]

Answer:

rise/run= -20/5= -4/1=-4 slope

or you sound use the slope formula (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(-9-11)/(1+4)

-20/5

What is the measure of the missing angle?
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Since a triangles total angle is 180°, to find the answer you would subtract the 2 angles you are given from 180. 180-56-36= 88°, this being your answer.
