Hello!
∠GCE = 14° (corresponding angles)
∠GEC = 180° - 78° - 14° (sum of angles in a triangle)
∠GEC = 88°
4x + 88° = 180°
4x = 180° - 88°
4x = 92°
x = 23°
Answer: 30 feet per second
========================================
x = diameter, y = speed of water
y varies inversely with respect to x, so, y = k/x for some constant k
If x = 0.6 and y = 5 pair up, then y = k/x turns into 5 = k/0.6 which solves to k = 3 when you multiply both sides by 0.6
So the equation y = k/x turns into y = 3/x
Now plug in the diameter x = 0.1 to find the speed to be...
y = 3/x
y = 3/0.1
y = 30 feet per second
Answer:
7x+6
Step-by-step explanation:
Aryana simplified the expression 3(x + 4) + 2(2x – 3). She justified her work by letting x = 3 in both the given and simplified expressions. Which is the correct simplified expression for Aryana's expression? What is the result for both expressions when x = 3?
Simplified Expression:
3(x + 4) + 2(2x – 3)
3x+12+2(2x-3)
3x+12+4x-6
7x+6
