Gene starts from home and travels 3 miles north to the shopping mall. From the shopping mall, he travels 2 miles west to the lib
rary. Then, from the library, he travels about 3.6 miles to return home. The entire trip forms a triangle. A triangle has points labeled Library, Mall, and Home The largest angle formed during his trip is _______. At his home at the mall between the mall and the library between his home and the library

Answer: The largest angle formed during his trip is at the mall between his home and the library.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see image attached) the angle formed between his home and the library is 90°.
The sum of the interior angles of a right triangle is 180°, and the right angle (90°)is the largest angle formed.
So, the largest angle formed during his trip is at the mall between his home and the library.

To solve a system of inequalities we graph both of them.
The inequality representing their combined pay would be
. This is because Jane makes 12.50/hr, Jack makes 10.00/hr, and they want to make at least, so greater than or equal to, $750 combined.
The inequality representing their combined hours working would be
, since they do not want their combined hours to be over 65. In both of these inequalities, <em>x</em> represents the number of hours Jane works and <em>y</em> represent the number of hours Jack works.
To graph these, we solve both of them for <em>y</em>:
The attached screenshot shows what the graph looks like. Going to the point where they intersect, we see that the shaded region that satisfies both inequalities begins when Jane works 40 hours and Jack works 25.

Answer:
See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is even, then we know that x = 2k for a k ≥1
If y is odd, then we know that y = 2j -1 for a j≥1
Therefore, x + y can be written similarly as:
And clearly, 2(k + j) -1 is odd.
Therefore, the sum x + y is an odd number.
