Hi there!


Looks like a lot of work is going on here.


Let's start by solving this equation for the x.


5x + 20y = 4


Step 1) Add -20y to both sides.


5x + 20y + - 20y = 4 - 20y 5x = -20y + 4


Step 2) Divide both sides by 5.


\frac{5x}{5}  = \frac{-20y + 4}{5}


x = -4y +  \frac{4}{5}


Final Answer:


x = -4y +  \frac{4}{5}


Now, let's solve for y.


Step 1) Add -5x to both sides.


5x + 20y + - 5x = 4 + - 5x 20y = -5x + 4


Step 2) Divide both sides by 20.


\frac{20y}{20} =  \frac{-5x + 4}{20}


y =  \frac{-1}{4} x +  \frac{1}{5}


Final Answer:


y =  \frac{-1}{4} x +  \frac{1}{5}


Hope this helps! :D


Hint - When you have two variables in an equation, and you want to solve for one, the other will end up in your answer. :)

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By the triangle sum theorem, the sum of angles in a triangle is equal to 180°. Therefore, m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°. Using the Substitution property

(6x)° + 90° + (x+6)° = 180°

To solve for x, first combine the terms to get (7x + 96) = 180°

Using the Subtraction property of equality,

7x = 84.

Then using the division property of equality x = 12.

To find the measure of angle A,

Use the subtraction property to get m∠A = 6(12)°.

Finally simplifying the expression gets m∠A = 72°.

$2.95 notebooks; 5% tax
dimaraw [331]
Turn 5% into a decimal which is 0.05, then multiply by 2.95 = 0.1475
round it off, which is 0.15
so $0.15 is the tax and if ur looking for the total price then add $2.95 to $0.15

In a right triangle STR, angle T and R are complementary angles. The value of cos(T) is 9/41. What is the value of sin(R)?
alex41 [277]

Answer: C) 9/41

Step-by-step explanation: From the description, angle S is the right angle. Which means that angles T and R are complementary (they sum to 90 degrees). Because they are complementary, this means the cosine of one angle is equal to the sine of the other angle. If cos(T) is 9/41, then so is sin(R).

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

  • x = 30°
  • RS = 30°, SR = TU = 120°, UR = 90°
  • ∠P = 45°
  • ∠UTS = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) If RS = x, then the sum of arcs around the circle is ...

  x + 4x +4x +3x = 360°

  12x = 360°

  x = 30°

__

(b) Based on the given ratios, the arc measures are computed from x. For example, ST = TU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

  • RS = 30°
  • ST = 120°
  • TU = 120°
  • UR = 90°

__

(c) Angle P is half the difference of arcs TU and RS:

  ∠P = (TU -RS)/2 = (120° -30°)/2

  ∠P = 45°

__

(d) Inscribed angle UTS is half the measure of the arc it intercepts. Arc RU has the measure (30° +90°) = 120°, so the measure of UTS is ...

  ∠UTS = 120°/2 = 60°
