Answer:

 w = 2, EF = 30 , FG = 42

Explanation:

We have EF = 5w + 20  and FG = 7w + 28

 Since these points E, F and G are col-linear points we have.

    EG = EF + FG

  And given that EG = 72

So, EF+EG = 72

     5w + 20 + 7w + 28 = 72

     12w + 48 = 72

      12 w = 24

       w = 2

So EF = 5w + 20 = 5x2 + 20 = 30

     FG = 7w + 28 = 7x2 + 28 = 42

I was taught how to do this but I need help, as I’m having a brain malfunction
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

theta = 135+ n360

theta = 225+n360

Step-by-step explanation:

-sqrt(2) = 2 cos theta

Divide each side by 2

-sqrt(2)/2 =2/2 cos theta

-sqrt(2)/2 = cos theta

Take the inverse cos on each side

arccos (-sqrt(2)/2) =  arc cos(cos theta)

135 = theta

Now remember this only gives you the value between 0 and 180 degrees.

Take 360 minus the value found to get the other angle since this is cosine

360 -135 = 225

Now remember this is cyclical, so we can add 360 to each of these values and we will get the same amount

theta = 135+ n360

theta = 225+n360

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3*2 + 9x - 18

First step in this case is to multiply 3 * 2 = 6.

Then you would have: 6 + 9x - 18
