Answer:
<em>a = </em>60°
<em>b </em>=<em> </em>120°
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you can find measure <em>a </em>by using the first shape. There are six rhombuses, and you can use the innermost <em>a </em>of each one to form a circle. A full circle is 360°, so divide 360 by six. The answer is sixty. So on the next shape, the <em>a</em> measurements add up to 120°. Subtract that from the circle: 360 - 120 = 240. And since there are two measurements for <em>b</em>, you would divide 240 by two. The answer is 120.
To check your work, use the knowledge that circles are 360° (the four interior corners of a rhombus will also add up to 360°. 2(120) + 2(60) = 360. Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any questions!
So, Jerome bought a total of 80 cards (8x10) out of which he gave out 30 cards (3x10) so he has 50 cards left. (80-30)
Directly proportional, both increase/decrease, Multiple k(constant you needed to solve for)..
Inversely --one increases as the other decreases, increase the denominator & fraction gets smaller.... So
Problem:
Dirextly to X (× by X)
Inversely to Y, (÷ by Y)
Z= k X/Y
Solve, working backwards: Z =5 becomes
5 = k (X) ÷ (Y). And
X=15 and Y =9 becomes
5= k(15)/(9). Undo ÷9, ×9 both sides
45= k(15). Now undo ×15 by ÷15 both sides
45/15 = 3. So k=3, (also called your constant of variation)....and your Equation/Proportion becomes...
Z = 3X/Y
Use the new #s.... X=23, Y=14
Z= 3×23÷14 = 69/14. If they want spirochete answer divide and round to corresponding # if decimals
{ 3-y=2x
{ x+1/2y=3/2
{ -y=2x-3
{ 1/2y=3/2-x
{ y=-2x+3
{ y=3-2x
-2x+3=3-2x
(x,y) = (x,-2x+3)
