PLEASE HELP! find the value of a in the parallelogram

Mathematics
1 answer:
Liono4ka [1.6K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a=19

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary, or add to 180 degrees.

In this parallelogram, 5a+1 and 3a+27 are adjacent. Therefore, when added, they should equal 180.

5a+1+3a+27=180

Combine like terms

(5a+3a) + (1+27) = 180

8a +28 =180

Now, solve for a, by isolating it.

Subtract 28 from both sides

8a+28-28=180-28

8a=152

Divide both sides by 8

8a/8=152/8

a=19

A concession stand sold hamburgers, salted pretzels, and hot dogs at a basketball game. Hamburgers were sold for $3.00, salted p
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

110

Step-by-step explanation:

Set hamburgers<em> </em>as <em>h,</em>

salted pretzels as <em>p</em>,

hot dogs as <em>d.</em>

h+p+d=144

(3.00)h+(2.25)p+(2.00)d=354.25

=>3h+2.25p+2d=354.25

we also know (2.00)d=82 => d=41

We make 3h+2.25p+2d=354.25 => 3h+2.25p=272.25

and h+p+d=144 => h+p=103

Set h=p-103

Substitution

3(p-103)+2.25p=272.25

3p-309+2.25p=272.25

(5.25)p=581.25

p=581.25/5.25=110.7142857

We round down =>110.

Can the graph of a function be a horizontal line? A vertical line? Explain.
aliina [53]
It can be a function if it's horizontal because it's only touching each point once, it can't be a function for a vertical line because it's straight up and down and it'll hit every point
