Answer:

A trapezoid midsegment connects the midpoints of the two congruent sides of the trapezoid, and is parallel to the pair of parallel sides. The length of the midsegment is the sum of the two bases divided by 2. Remember that the bases of a trapezoid are the two parallel sides.

Answer:

Angle 1 = 139°
Angle 2 = 41°
x = 29; exterior angle = 131°

Step-by-step explanation:

These problems let you make use of the fact that the sum of the remote interior angles is equal to the exterior angle.

1. 53° +86° = ∠1

139° = ∠1

2. ∠2 +92° = 133°

∠2 = 133° -92°

∠2 = 41°

3. (x +9)° +93° = (4x+15)°

87 = 3x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract x+15°

29 = x . . . . . . . divide by 3

The exterior angle is ...

(4x +15)° = (4·29 +15)° = 131° . . . exterior angle

Mrs. Bonilla is a saleswoman at a furniture store. Her commission on rugs is 10% and her commission on furniture is 15%. Her goa

lara31 [8.8K]

so here is how you can answer this:

Your commission must be equal to the sum of the 10% of the value of the rug and the 15% of the value of the furniture and equate this to the value of your commission. Translate this to a mathematical equation, you would get,

Commission = (10%) (value of rugs) + (15%) (value of furniture).
substituting the known values,

5000 =.1 * x + .15 * 12500.

Now it's a matter of finding for x. You should get,

x = $31,250.

Answer is option c

Step-by-step explanation:

$given \: equations \: are \\ x - 2y = 15 \: \: and \: 2x + 4y = - 18 \\ divide \: by \: 2 \: in \: second \: equation \\ x + 2y = - 9 \: \: (equation \: 3) \\ adding \: 1and \: 3 \: we \: get \\ 2x = 6 \\ x = 3 \\ substitute \: x = 3 \: in \: equation \: 3 \\ 3 + 2y = - 9 \\ 2y = - 9 - 3 \\ 2y = - 12 \\ y = - 6$

x=3 and y=-6

A gym teacher has $250 to spend on volleyball equipment. She buys 4 volleyball nets for $28 each. Volleyball cost $7 each. How m

Sonbull [250]

First find out how much the 4 volleyball nets are by using 4*28 which would equal to 112. Now subtract 112 from 250 and that leaves you with 138. Then you divide 138 by 7 which will give you about 19.7 which you need to take all decimals out since it isn’t an whole number. The gym teacher can only buy 19 volleyballs.

Troyanec [42]

1. Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
4x+5=6x
Step 1: Subtract 6x from both sides.
4x+5−6x=6x−6x
−2x+5=0
Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides.
−2x+5−5=0−5
−2x=−5
Step 3: Divide both sides by -2.
−2x/−2 =−5/−2
