Answer:

21.0

Step-by-step explanation:

SOHCAHTOA

In this case you would be using TOA

tan (x) = opposite/ adjacent

tan (51) = x / 17

x = 17 tan (51)

x = 20.9932

x= 21.0

Alex was biking along a 48 mile trail. First half of the time he was biking twice as fast as the second half of the time. If he
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The speed in the first part is 16 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance is 48 miles. The total time is 4 hours.

In the second part of the trip, he was traveling at speed s for distance d for 2 hours.

In the first part of the trip he was traveling at twice the speed, or 2s, for distance 48 - d, for 2 hours.

speed = distance/time

distance = speed * time

First part of trip:

48 - d = 2s * 2

d + 4s = 48   Equation 1

Second part of the trip:

d = s * 2

d = 2s    Equation 2

Equations 1 and 2 form a system of equations in two unknowns, d and s.

d + 4s = 48

d = 2s

Substitute 2s for d in equation 1.

2s + 4s = 48

6s = 48

s = 8

The speed in the second part is 8 mph.

The speed in the first part is 2s = 2(8) = 16.

The speed in the first part is 16 mph.

Check:

d = 2s = 2(8) = 16

48 - d = 48 - 16 = 32

The second part is 16 miles. The first part is 32 miles.

16 miles at 8 mph takes 2 hours.

32 miles at 16 mph takes 2 hours.

2 hours + 2 hours = 4 hours.

Our answer is correct.

Answer: The speed in the first part is 16 mph.

the slope of a line passing through h (-2, 5) is -3/4. Which ordered pair represents a point on this line? ​
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope of the given points with the point (- 2,  5 )

If the slope is - \frac{3}{4} then the point is on the line

Calculate slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, - 1)

m = \frac{-1-5}{6+2} = \frac{-6}{8} = - \frac{3}{4} ← point (6, - 1) is on the line

Repeat with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 5 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 8)

m = \frac{8-5}{2+2} = \frac{3}{4} ← point (2, 8) is not on the line

Repeat with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 5, 1)

m = \frac{1-5}{-5+2} = \frac{-4}{-3} = \frac{4}{3} ← point (- 5, 1) is not on the line

Repeat with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 1)

m = \frac{1-5}{1+2} = - \frac{4}{3} ← point (1, 1) is not on the line

Thus the point on the line is (6, - 1 ) → A

4. What is the measure of angle ABD in the figure below?*<br> D<br> 2x<br> A<br> B<br> с
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Measure of exterior angle ABD = 136°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

measure of ∠A = (2x + 2)°

measure of ∠C = (x + 4)°

measure of ∠B = x°

Find:

Measure of exterior angle ABD

Computation:

Using angles sum property

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

So,

(2x + 2) + (x + 4) + x = 180

4x + 6 = 180

4x = 176

x = 44

So,

measure of ∠B = x°

measure of ∠B = 44°

Measure of exterior angle ABD = 180 - measure of ∠B

Measure of exterior angle ABD = 180 - 44

Measure of exterior angle ABD = 136°
