Answer: -1/2, 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x=0 , y=2x-5 and y=mx+9 form a right angle. So, y=mx+9 is either perpendicular to x=0 or y=2x-5 because the angle between x=0 and y=2x-5 is not 90 degrees. The product of slopes of perpendicular lines equals to -1.

Thus, m=-1/2 if it is perpendicular to y=2x-5. And y=c, for some constant if it is perpendicular to x=0. So y=0x+9 fits the bill. (m=0, in this case)

33. Angle R is 68 degrees
35. The fraction 21/2 or the decimal 10.5
36. Triangle ACG
37. Segment AB
38. The values are x = 6; y = 2
40. The value of x is x = 29
41. C) 108 degrees
42. The value of x is x = 70
43. The segment WY is 24 units long
------------------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
Problem 33) 
RS = ST, means that the vertex angle is at angle S
Angle S = 44
Angle R = x, angle T = x are the base angles
R+S+T = 180
x+44+x = 180
2x+44 = 180
2x+44-44 = 180-44
2x = 136
2x/2 = 136/2
x = 68
So angle R is 68 degrees
-----------------
Problem 35) 
Angle A = angle H
Angle B = angle I
Angle C = angle J
A = 97
B = 4x+4
C = J = 37
A+B+C = 180
97+4x+4+37 = 180
4x+138 = 180
4x+138-138 = 180-138
4x = 42
4x/4 = 42/4
x = 21/2
x = 10.5
-----------------
Problem 36) 
GD is the median of triangle ACG. It stretches from the vertex G to point D. Point D is the midpoint of segment AC
-----------------
Problem 37)
Segment AB is an altitude of triangle ACG. It is perpendicular to line CG (extend out segment CG) and it goes through vertex A.
-----------------
Problem 38) 
triangle LMN = triangle PQR
LM = PQ
MN = QR
LN = PR
Since LM = PQ, we can say 2x+3 = 5x-15. Let's solve for x
2x+3 = 5x-15
2x-5x = -15-3
-3x = -18
x = -18/(-3)
x = 6
Similarly, MN = QR, so 9 = 3y+3
Solve for y
9 = 3y+3
3y+3 = 9
3y+3-3 = 9-3
3y = 6
3y/3 = 6/3
y = 2
-----------------
Problem 40) 
The remote interior angles (2x and 21) add up to the exterior angle (3x-8)
2x+21 = 3x-8
2x-3x = -8-21
-x = -29
x = 29
-----------------
Problem 41) 
For any quadrilateral, the four angles always add to 360 degrees
J+K+L+M = 360
3x+45+2x+45 = 360
5x+90 = 360
5x+90-90 = 360-90
5x = 270
5x/5 = 270/5
x = 54
Use this to find L
L = 2x
L = 2*54
L = 108
-----------------
Problem 42) 
The adjacent or consecutive angles are supplementary. They add to 180 degrees
K+N = 180
2x+40 = 180
2x+40-40 = 180-40
2x = 140
2x/2 = 140/2
x = 70
-----------------
Problem 43) 
All sides of the rhombus are congruent, so WX = WZ.
Triangle WPZ is a right triangle (right angle at point P).
Use the pythagorean theorem to find PW
a^2+b^2 = c^2
(PW)^2+(PZ)^2 = (WZ)^2
(PW)^2+256 = 400
(PW)^2+256-256 = 400-256
(PW)^2 = 144
PW = sqrt(144)
PW = 12
WY = 2*PW
WY = 2*12
WY = 24

Can any one explain this question worth points! plz explain if you can
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

x = 31

Step-by-step explanation:

The given angles are supplementary and their sum is 180 degrees

5x - 16 + x + 10 = 180 add like terms

6x - 6 = 180 add 6 to both sides

6x = 186 divide both sides by 6

x = 31

During a sale, a store offered a 15% discount on a TV that originally sold for $900. After the sale, the discounted price of the
iVinArrow [24]
<h3>Answer:   98%</h3>

==================================================

Explanation:

The customer saves 15%, but still pays the remaining 85%. The two percentages add to 100%.

85% of $900 = 0.85*900 = 765

After the 15% discount is applied, the customer would pay $765

---------

Then after the sale, the price is marked up by 15%

This means we'll multiply by 1.15 to indicate a 15% increase

1.15*765 = 879.75

Notice that we don't get back to the original price (900) even though we increased by the same percentage as before. This is because 15% of a smaller number is a smaller amount; ie we have a smaller increase compared to the decrease earlier.

---------

Afterwards, divide the value 879.75 over the original price of $900

879.75/900 = 0.9775

Move the decimal point two spots to the right to end up with 97.75%

That percentage rounds to 98% when rounding to the nearest whole percent.
