Answer: There is no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) 1 / 5 (25) + 1 / 5 (-5a) = 4 - a

2.) 5 - a = 4 - a

3.) 5 - a + a = 4 - a + a

4.) 5 = 4

The variable a is completely removed, leaving the final answer as 5 = 4, which isn't true.

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 1/5(25 - 5a) = 4 - a

Start by distributing 1/5 inside the parentheses. 1/5 * 25 is 5 and 1/5 * 5 is 1. You have:

  • (5 - a) = 4 - a

Now you can remove the parentheses.

  • 5 - a = 4 - a

Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation.

  • 1 - a = -a

Add a to both sides of the equation.

  • 1 = 0

This is an incorrect or a FALSE statement, so this means that this equation has no solution.

Unit 1 geometry basics quiz 1-3 angle measures and relationships
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. Side CD and side DG meet at endpoint D to form <4. Therefore, the sides of <4 are:

Side CD and side DG.

2. Vertex of <2 is the endpoint at which two sides meet to form <2.

Vertex of <2 is D.

3. Another name for <3 is <EDG

4. <5 is less than 90°. Therefore, <5 can be classified as an acute angle.

5. <CDE is less than 180° but greater than 90°. Therefore, <CDE is classified as an obtuse angle.

6. m<5 = 42°

m<1 = 117°

m<CDF = ?

m<5 + m<1 = m<CDF (angle addition postulate)

42° + 117° = m<CDF (Substitution)

159° = m<CDF

m<CDF = 159°

7. m<3 = 73°

m<FDE = ?

m<FDG = right angle = 90°

m<3 + m<FDE = m<FDG (Angle addition postulate)

73° + m<FDE = 90° (Substitution)

73° + m<FDE - 73° = 90° - 73°

m<FDE = 17°

How to find lateral surface
ella [17]
To find the lateral surface area of a pyramid, you can find the area of each triangle, A = 1/2bh or A = 1/2lw, then multiply by the number of triangles, which would be based on the number of sides of the base; or you can take half the perimeter and multiply by the slant height.
