48= 1 whole so 1/2=41 divided by two. 48 / 2 is 24. 24 days for the pond half full

M_6 is (2x – 5)º and m_8 is (x + 5)º.
HACTEHA [7]

m_6 + m_8 = 180º because they form a straight line.

So, (2x-5) + (x+5) = 180

    3x = 180

      x = 60

So, m_115º    (2•60 - 5 = 115)

Also, because the two lines are parallel m_6 = m_3 by alternate interior angles.

So, m_3 = 115º

A rectangle has perimeter 28cm. Its area is 42sq.cm. Determine the dimensions of the rectangle. Include a diagram in your soluti
yawa3891 [41]

The dimensions of the rectangle are: b=9.65 cm and h=4.35 cm or b=4.35 cm and h= 9.65 cm.

<h3>Quadrilaterals</h3>

There are different types of quadrilaterals, for example, square, rectangle, rhombus, trapezoid, and parallelogram.  Each type is defined accordingly to its length of sides and angles. For example, in a rectangle,  the opposite sides are equal and parallel and their interior angles are equal to 90°.

The area of a rectangle is equal to base x height (A=bh). The perimeter of a geometric figure is the sum of its sides. Thus, for a rectangle, the perimeter is 2b+2h.

<h3>System of Linear Equations</h3>

System of linear equations is the given term math for two or more equations with the same variables. The solution of these equations represents the point at which the lines intersect.

The question gives:

Perimeter=28cm

Area= 42 cm²

If the perimeter is the sum of all sides of the rectangle, you have:

Perimeter= 2b+2h=28

If the area of the rectangle is 42cm², you have:

Area=bh=42 cm²

You can write a system of linear equations.

2b+2h=28 (1)

bh=42 (2)

From equation 2, you have  b=\frac{42}{h}. Then, you can replace it in equation 1.

2*\frac{42}{h}+2h=28 \\ \\ 84+2h^2=28h\\ \\ 2h^2-28h+84=0 \; dividing\; by\; 2\\ \\ h^2-14h+42=0

Now, you should solve the quadratic equation.

h_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-14\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-14\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:42}}{2\cdot \:1}

h_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-14\right)\pm \:2\sqrt{7}}{2\cdot \:1}

h_1=\frac{-\left(-14\right)+2\sqrt{7}}{2\cdot \:1}=7+\sqrt{7}=9.65 cm

h_2=\frac{-\left(-14\right)-2\sqrt{7}}{2\cdot \:1}=7-\sqrt{7}=4.35cm

If h1=9.65 cm, then b_1=\frac{42}{9.65} =4.35 cm, and if  h2=4.35 cm, then b_1=\frac{42}{4.35} =9.65 cm.

Plz answer seriously and you will get 15 points and possibly a brainliest.
irina1246 [14]

Just saying, this angle is a 45 degree angle.  

and the X on both is   '-1'

I think?

hope this helps. im not good at math..- :)

Solve for k 4.5+1.5k=18−3k
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{k = 3}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{4.5 + 1.5k = 18 - 3k}

Move 3k to left hand side and change it's sign

Similarly, move 4.5 to right hand side and change it's sign

\longrightarrow{ \sf{1.5k + 3k = 18 - 4.5}}

Collect like terms

\longrightarrow{ \sf{4.5k = 18 -  4.5}}

Subtract 4.5 from 18

\longrightarrow{ \sf{4.5k = 13.5}}

Divide both sides by 4.5

\longrightarrow{ \sf{ \frac{4.5k}{4.5}  =  \frac{13.5}{4.5} }}

Calculate

\longrightarrow{ \sf{k = 3}}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Mindy left at 8 a.M. And will arrive at 1 p.M.; jelly left at 8 a.M. And will arrive at 2 p.M. How many miles is the trip if Kel
uysha [10]

Answer:

300 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance equation is D = RT

Where

D is the distance

R is the rate

T is the time

<u>Mindy</u>

8 am to 1 pm = 5 hours

<u>Kelly</u>

8 am to 2 pm = 6 hours

Kelly's rate is 10 mph SLOWER than mindy, so if we let Mindy's rate be "m", so Kelly's rate will be " m - 10 "

Now using the distance equation, we can write:

Mindy >>> D = RT >>> D = 5m

Kelly >>> D = RT >>>  D = 6(m-10) >>> D = 6m - 60

Since both the distances are equal, we can write:

5m = 6m - 60

m = 60

We want the distance, we know:

D = 5m

D = 5(60)

D = 300 miles

The distance is 300 miles
