nydimaria [60]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In 5 days there was a 75 point loss

In 1 day there was a loss of x (which would be the average per day)

5/75 = 1/x                 Cross multiply

5x = 75 * 1

5x = 75                     Divide by 5

5x/5 = 75/5              Do the division

x = 15

The average loss was 15 points a day.

15 points

If one angle of a parallelogram is of measure 70
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

70, 110, 70, 110

Step-by-step explanation:

If one angle is 70 degrees, the opposite angle is also 70 degrees.  The 4 angles add to 360, 360 - 140 = 220. The 220 degrees are split 2 ways for the 2 angles, so they are each 110 degrees.

Write an equation of the line that passes through point (-8, – 5) and has the slope m= - 1/4 <br>y=
zmey [24]

Answer:

y= -1/4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

(-8 {x1}, -5 {y1}, -1/4 [m] )

We'll then replace the letters with the available figures.

y-[-5] = -1/4 (x-[-8])

We are made to know that minus + minus= plus

Minus + plus= Minus

Minus x minus = plus

minus x plus = minus

Therefore, the mathematical setting of this question becomes,

y+5 = -1/4 (x+8)

Multiply everything in the bracket with the outside value

-1/4 x X = -1/4x

-1/4 x 8 = -2

The mathematical setting then becomes,

y+5 = -1/4x + -2 (<em>Note: plus + minus = minus</em>)

so, it becomes

y+5 = -1/4x - 2

The equation is supposed to look like this, y= mx + b

Therefore we add +5 to both sides to cancel out

 y+5 = -1/4x - 2

   +5            +5

+5 cancels out +5 which makes the setting,

y= -1/4x - 2 +5 (<em>-2+5 goes around to become 5-2= 3</em>)

The expression now looks like this

<u>y= -1/4x +3 which is the final answer!</u>

<u />y= -1/4x + 3

Use the Pythagorean theorem to obtain the function​ D(x) for the length of the diagonal of a double square of width x.
Yuri [45]

Answer:

D(x)= x\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Side = x

Required

Represent the diagonal as a function

Using Pythagoras theorem, the diagonal is:

D^2= Side^2 + Side^2

Substitute x for Side

D^2= x^2 + x^2

D^2= 2x^2

Take the square root of both sides

D= \sqrt{2x^2

Split

D= \sqrt{2} * \sqrt{x^2

D= \sqrt{2} * x

D= x\sqrt{2}

Express as a function.

D(x)= x\sqrt{2}
