Answer:

x = 26

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

(5x - 17)° + (3x - 11)° = 180° (angles in a straight line)

Solve for x

5x - 17 + 3x - 11 = 180

Collect like terms

5x + 3x - 17 - 11 = 180

8x - 28 = 180

Add 28 to both sides

8x = 180 + 28

8x = 208

Divide both sides by 8

x = 208/8

x = 26

Also:

(2y + 5)° + 90° + (3x - 11)° = 180° (angles on a straight line)

Plug in the value of x and solve for y

2y + 5 + 90 + 3(26) - 11 = 180

2y + 5 + 90 + 78 - 11 = 180

Collect like terms

2y + 162 = 180

Subtract 162 from both sides

2y = 180 - 162

2y = 18

y = 9 (dividing both sides by 2)

Is Social Darwinism a justifiable reason to colonize other areas of the world and exploit the people and resources of that regio
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Social Darwinism provided an ideological justification for the social inequalities that capitalism had brought with it: these would result from the hereditary inferiority of the poor and the hereditary excellence of the richer classes, which are best enjoyed under a laissez-faire system. Applied to peoples and races, it became a justification for racism and imperialism.

As can be seen, social Darwinism is a retrograde political and philosophical stance, which considered different ethnic or national groups as different in terms of capacity or development possibilities. Therefore, since this position has been regarded as false, social Darwinism has no justification in our time.

In any right triangle , what must be true about the sum of the measures of the two acute angles?
Whitepunk [10]
A right angle is 90 degree, and all the three angles make a sum of 180, so the two acute angles will always add up to be 90
