Answer:

The correct answer is x = 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we must remember that vertical angles have the same measure. This lets us set up the following equation:

m<a = m<b

If we substitute their values, we get the following:

5x - 24 = 3x + 24

To solve this equation, we can first subtract 3x from both sides of the equation.

2x - 24 = 24

Next, we can add 24 to both sides of the equation.

2x = 48

Finally, we can divide both sides of the equation by 2.

x = 24

Therefore, the answer is x = 24.

Hope this helps!

Which transformation was performed on PQRS to form P'QʻR'S'? (1 point)

REY [17]

Given:

A transformation was performed on PQRS to form P'QʻR'S'.

To find:

The transformation.

Solution:

The given graph shows two similar polygons. It means, dilation was performed.

From the given graph it is clear that,

$PS=2$ units

$P'S'=1$ units

Now,

$\text{Scale factor}=\dfrac{P'S'}{PS}$

$\text{Scale factor}=\dfrac{1}{2}$

A dilation factor of $\dfrac{1}{2}$ was performed on PQRS to form P'QʻR'S'.

Therefore, the correct option is (3).

What is the volume of the cylinder shown below?

Anastasy [175]

here's your solution

=> it is given that.

=> height of cylinder = 15unit

=> radius of base = 9unit

=> volume of cylinder = π r^2h cubic unit

 => now, putting the value of height and radius

in above formula

=> volume = 22/7 *9*9*15

=> volume = 36177cubic unit
