Answer:

x = 39.1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean, add up all the data points and then divide by the number of data points

(31.7+ 42.8+ 26.4+ x)/4 = 35

Multiply each side by 4

(31.7+ 42.8+ 26.4+ x)/4*4 = 35*4

(31.7+ 42.8+ 26.4+ x) = 140

Combine like terms

100.9+x = 140

Subtract 100.9 from each side

x = 140-100.9

x = 39.1

What is the solution of the system defined by y= -x+5 and 5x + 2y = 14?

telo118 [61]

  y = -x + 5
5x + 2y = 14

5x + 2(-x + 5) = 14
5x + 2(-x) + 2(5) = 14
5x - 2x + 10 = 14
3x + 10 = 14
- 10 - 10
3x = 4
3   3
  x = 1¹/₃
  y = -x + 5
  y = -1¹/₃ + 5
  y = 3²/₃
(x, y) = (-1¹/₂, 3²/₃)

: Find the approximate perimeter of the isosceles triangle A OPD.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

24.98 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

we have the coordinates

P(1,-6),D(4,3),O(7,-6)

The perimeter of triangle OPD is equal to

$P=OP+PD+OD$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find the distance OP

we have

O(7,-6),P(1,-6)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-6+6)^{2}+(1-7)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(-6)^{2}}$

$d_O_P=6\ units$

step 2

Find the distance PD

we have

P(1,-6),D(4,3)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(3+6)^{2}+(4-1)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(9)^{2}+(3)^{2}}$

$d_P_D=\sqrt{90}\ units$

step 3

Find the distance OD

we have

O(7,-6),D(4,3)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(3+6)^{2}+(4-7)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(9)^{2}+(-3)^{2}}$

$d_O_D=\sqrt{90}\ units$

step 4

Find the perimeter

$P=6+\sqrt{90}+\sqrt{90}$

$P=6+9.49+9.49=24.98\ units$

Consider the triangle below.

Pepsi [2]

The measure of angle P is 29 degrees

The sum of an interior angle of a triangle is 180 degrees. Given the following parameters:

m<M = 15x + 5

m<N = 3x + 2

m<P = 5x - 11

Taking the sum and equating to 180 degrees:

m<M + m<N + m<P = 180 degrees

15x + 5 + 3x + 2 + 5x - 11 = 180

23x - 4 = 180

23x = 184

x = 184/23

x = 8

Get the measure of m<P

m<P = 5x - 11

m<P = 5(8) - 11

m<P = 40 - 11

m<P = 29 degrees

Hence the measure of angle P is 29 degrees
