Answer:

J - Janeta's age  M - mother's age

A) (J-5) = .2 * (M-5)

B) J = (1/3) * M

Subtracting 5 from both sides of B:

B) J -5 = (1/3)M -5

then we substitute the right side of this into the left side of A and we get

(1/3)M -5 = .2 M -1

.333333333333M -5 = .2M -1

.1111111111111111111M = 4

Mother's Age = 36

Janeta's Age = 12

Dominik [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

h^2=x^2+y^2, here x and y are equal so we can say

h^2=2x^2, we see that h=2(2^(1/2)) so

2x^2=8

x^2=4

For a party, the family bought 24 pizzas for $12.50 each and 36 bottles of soda for $1.20 each. How much did the family spend on
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

1) The amount the family spent on pizza is $300

2) The amount the family spent on soda is $43.2

3) The amount the family spent in all is $343.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of pizzas bought by the family = 24

The price of each pizza = $12.50

The number of bottles of soda the family bought = 36

The price of each bottles of soda = $1.20

1) The amount the family spent on pizza = 24 × $12.50 = $300

2) The amount the family spent on soda = 36 × $1.20 = $43.2

3) The amount the family spent in all = The amount the family spent on pizza + The amount the family spent on soda

∴ The amount the family spent on soda = $300 +$43.2 = $343.2.

Find the angle measures. Justify your responses.
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

m∠3 = 2x - 10° and m∠6 = 3x + 20

m∠3 = 58°          ;    m ∠6 = 122°

Step-by-step explanation:

a ║ b

m∠2 = m∠6                     If ║ cut by a transversal, then corresponding angles

                                         are ≅ and =

m∠7 = m∠3                   If ║ cut by a transversal, then corresponding angles

                                       are ≅ and =

m∠2 = 3x + 20              Given

m∠7 = 2x - 10                 Given    

m∠6 + m∠3 = 180°         If ║ cut by a transversal, then each pair of same-side

                                       interior angles (also called consecutive interior angles

                                       are supplementary (sum = 180°) .    

3x + 20 + 2x - 10 = 180°

5x + 10 = 180°

5x = 170°

x = 34°

Answer:   m∠3 = 2x - 10° and m∠6 = 3x + 20

                m∠3 = 2(34) - 10  ;    m∠6 = 3(34) + 20

                 m∠3 = 58°          ;    m ∠6 = 122°
