Answer:
X=65°
Step-by-step explanation:
Both angles combined is a right angle as indicated by the small square drawn on it, a right angle is always 90° therefore
(x-15°)+40°=90°
combine like terms
x+25°=90°
subtract 25° from each side
x=65°
Answer:
length of BC = 5 1/4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle = 1/2×base×height
Area = 4 3/8 square feet
Base = AC= 1 2/3 feet
Height = BC = ?
Area of a triangle = 1/2×base×height
4 3/8 = 1/2 × 1 2/3 × height
35/8 = 1/2 × 5/3 × height
35/8 = 5/6 × height
Height = 35/8 ÷ 5/6
= 35/8 × 6/5
= (35 × 6) / (8 × 5)
= 210 / 40
= 5 1/4 feet
Height = BC = 5 1/4 feet
length of BC = 5 1/4 feet
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
first term a= 2
last term tn= 32
common ratio r= -2
number of terms
= tn=ar^n-1
32 = 2*(-2)^n-1
divide both sides by 2
32/2 = 2*(-2)^n-1/2
16 = (-2)^n-1
Then...use 16 in the power of 2
(-2)^4 = (-2)^n-1
The bases (-2), cancels out
so we have: 4 = n-1
collect like terms
4-1 = n
3 = n
n= 3
