Let ABC be an isosceles triangle with AB = AC and ∠BAC=30°. Side AB and the median AD contain points Q and P respectively (point

s P and Q are not at point A) in such a way that PC=PQ. Find m∠PQC.

Answer:

  15°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since P is on the median of ΔABC, it is equidistant from points B and C as well as from C and Q. Thus, points B, C, and Q all lie on a circle centered at P. (See the attached diagram.)

The base angles (B and C) of triangle ABC are (180° -30°)/2 = 75°. This means arc QC of the circle centered at P has measure 150°. The diameter of circle P that includes point Q is defined to intersect circle P at R.

Central angle RPC is the difference between arcs QR and QC, so is 180° -150° = 30°. Inscribed angle RQC has half that measure, so is 15°.  Angle PQC has the same measure as angle RQC, so is 15°.

Angle PQC is 15°.

Tell wheather the system has one solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solution.
ipn [44]
<h3>Answer:</h3>
  1. One solution: (x, y) = (2, 0)
  2. Infinitely many solutions: 2x -5y = 17
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

1. When you put the second equation in standard form, it is ...

... 5x +3y = 10

This is a different equation than the first one, so there will be one solution where the lines interect. (Adding the two equations gives 10x=20 ⇒ x=2. Since adding or subtracting y gives the same result, y must be zero.)

2. When you put the second equation in standard form, it is the same as the first:

... 2x -5y = 17 . . . . . divide the equation by 3

That is, any (x, y) values that satisfy the first equation will also satisfy the second equation (since they are the same). There are an infinite number of (x, y) values that do so.

Suppose you have 57 coins in a jar consisting entirely of dimes and quarters, worth a total of $10.65. How many dimes are in the
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

  24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d represent the number of dimes. Then (57-d) is the number of quarters, and the total value (in cents) is ...

  10d +25(57 -d) = 1065

  -15d +1425 = 1065 . . . . . . simplify

  -15d = -360 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1425

  d = -360/-15 = 24 . . . divide by the coefficient of d

There are 24 dimes in the jar.

Of the 58 employees in a firm, 8 are considered support staff, and 7 of the employees have more than five years of experience. A
polet [3.4K]

Using statistical concepts, it is found that the number of outcomes that are possible for the complement of the union of Events J and K is of 43.

<h3>What is the union of events J and K?</h3>

It means that at least one of event J or event K is true, hence, it is composed by employees that are either considered support staff(less than 5 years of experience) or employees that have more than five years of experience, combining a total of 7 + 8 = 15 employees.

<h3>What is the complement?</h3>

The total number of outcomes of the union of J and K, plus the complement, add to the total number of 58, hence:

15 + x = 58

x = 43.

The number of outcomes that are possible for the complement of the union of Events J and K is of 43.
