Answer: 25 miles.
Answer:
30:1
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Look at the graph and follow along the lines.
2. When x is 1 in hours then cakes are 30.
3. So we can write the ratio from cakes to hours.
4. The ratio is 30:1.
You can start with the form
∆y(x -x1) -∆x(y -y1) = 0
Here, we have
∆y = 11-(-3) = 14
∆x = -3-1 = -4
and we can choose (x1, y1) = (1, -3). This gives
14(x -1) -(-4)(y -(-3)) = 0
14x +4y -2 = 0
All these terms have a common factor of 2 that we can remove. Adding 1 to the result puts it in standard form:
7x +2y = 1
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
or, x=88+46(exterior angle is equal to sum of two opposite interior angle)
or, x=134
Answers:
x = 72
y = 83
============================================================
Explanation:
Angle VFG is 50 degrees. The angle adjacent to this is angle EFG which is 180-50 = 130 degrees.
Angle HDW is 77 degrees. The supplementary angle adjacent to this is 180-77 = 103 degrees which is angle EDH.
Pentagon EFGHD has the following five interior angles
- E = x
- F = 130
- G = 170
- H = 65
- D = 103
Note that angles F = 130 and D = 103 were angles EFG and EDH we calculated earlier.
For any pentagon, the interior angles always add to 180(n-2) = 180(5-2) = 180*3 = 540 degrees.
This means,
E+F+G+H+D = 540
x+130+170+65+103 = 540
x+468 = 540
x = 72
---------------------------------------
Now focus your attention on triangle THS
We see that the interior angles are
The angle H is 65 degrees because it's paired with the other 65 degree angle shown. They are vertical angles.
For any triangle, the angles always add to 180
T+H+S = 180
y+65+32 = 180
y+97 = 180
y = 180-97
y = 83
