Answer:

x = 25 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that the 4x, 2x + 10°, and x - 5° and the measures of the three interior angles of the triangle. The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°.

Using this, we can conclude that the sum of 4x, 2x + 10°, and x - 5° is equal to 180°.

We can write this information as the equation:

4x + (2x + 10) + (x - 5) = 180

We can use this equation to find the value of x. To find the value of x by using the equation, we need to solve for x (put the equation into the form x = _).

Solve for x:

4x + (2x + 10) + (x - 5) = 180

4x + 2x + 10 + x - 5 = 180

Combine like terms.

7x + 5 = 180

Subtract 5 from both sides to get rid of the +5 on the left side.

7x = 180 - 5

Simplify.

7x = 175

Divide both sides by 7 to get rid of the coefficient of 7 on the left side.

x = 175 ÷ 7

Simplify.

x = 25.

x would be equal to 25°.

x = 25 degrees

I hope you find this helpful. :)

A Square has the vertices at (-2,6) (6,1) (1,-7) (-7,-2). At what point do the diagonals of the square intercect

DerKrebs [107]

Answer: At point ( $-\frac{1}{2},-\frac{1}{2}$ )

Step-by-step explanation: <u>Diagonal</u> is a line uniting two opposite points. In a square, the diagonals intersect in a 90° and bisect each other, i.e., divides each diagonal into two segments of the same length.

In other words, the diagonals of a square meet at their midpoint, which is found as the following:

(x,y) = $(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2} ,\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})$

The opposite vertices of the given square are (-2,6) and (1,-7).

So, the intersection is

(x,y) = $(\frac{-2+1}{2} ,\frac{6-7}{2})$

(x,y) = $(-\frac{1}{2},-\frac{1}{2} )$

The diagonals of square with vertices (-2,6)(6,1)(1,-7)(-7,-2) intersect at point $(-\frac{1}{2},-\frac{1}{2} )$ .

2x 2 (9x 2 −16)

xz_007 [3.2K]

Is the equation2x2(9x+2-16) if so you would do -16+2 first which is -14

Then multiply 2x2 equals 4

4(9x-14)

Multiply the 4 to 9x and -14

You get 36x-56

An example of an asset-producing debt

erastovalidia [21]

<span>For example, education debt is a fact of life for many of us but we should view it as an investment in our future. We’d like to think it will provide us with an opportunity to increase our future income, so that makes it good debt. Debt for an unaffordable expensive car would be considered bad debt since it is an unnecessary expense that provides no income and depreciates in value. Debt for something that depreciates and provides no income would certainly be considered bad debt. An education is an investment that appreciates in value by increasing future income potential... the car is a depreciating expense that will provide no income and will rapidly depreciate in value (uses up income instead of providing income). The expensive car may be more fun to have, but the education will be the best investment.</span>
