The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.
m∠J and m∠Kare base angles of an isosceles trapezoid JKLM.
If m∠J = 18x + 8, and m∠M = 11x + 15 , find m∠K.
A. 1
B. 154
C. 77
D. 26
Answer: B. m∠K = 154
Step-by-step explanation: <u>Isosceles</u> <u>trapezoid</u> is a parallelogram with two parallel sides, called Base, and two non-parallel sides that have the same measure.
Related to internal angles, angles of the base are equal and opposite angles are supplementary.
In trapezoid JKLM, m∠J and m∠M are base angles, so they are equal:
18x + 8 = 11x + 15
7x = 7
x = 1
Now, m∠K is opposite so, they are supplementary, which means their sum results in 180°:
m∠J = 18(1) + 8
m∠J = 26
m∠K + m∠J = 180
m∠K + 26 = 180
m∠K = 154
The angle m∠K is 154°
Rates like $ per channel is a slope, "m". The added fee is a constant so it's the intercept "b".
y = mx + b
So for the first problem (9)
(a)
y = total cost in dollars
x = number of premium channels
y = 16x + 44
(b) when x = 3 channels
y = 16(3) + 44
y = 92 $
the second problem (10)
(a) every 4 years the tree grows by 12-9=3 ft
So the unit rate or slope will be 3 ft per 4 yrs, (3/4). You can see this also by solving for slope "m" using the given points (4,9) and (8,12).
x = number of years
y = height of tree in ft
y = (3/4)x + b
use one of the points to find the y-intercept "b".
9 = (3/4)(4) + b
9 = 3 + b
9 - 3 = b
6 = b
y = (3/4)x + 6
(b) when x = 16
y = (3/4)(16) + 6
y = 12 + 6
y = 18 ft
Answer:
x = -62.5
Step-by-step explanation:
y = kx
-4 = k(25)
k = -4/25
y = (-4/25)x
10 = (-4/25)x
x = 10 × 25/-4
x = -62.5
Answer:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using two coordinates, you can just plug in the corresponding (x,y) coordinates and you will get the slope, which is the rate of change over an interval
