Answer:

A= 429

B= 50

Explanation:

A+B= 479 (take away)

A-B= 379

A-A+B+B= 479-379 (simplify)

2B= 100

I think you know how to do it now..

B=50

A=50+379 ---> 429

This is the substitution method, there are other ways of doing it- and I tried to make this simple. Hope this helped!

In isosceles $\triangle abc$ (with $ab = ac$), point $d$ lies on $ab$ such that $cd = cb$. if $\angle adc = 115^\circ$, what is
Nuetrik [128]

1. Angles ADC and CDB are supplementary, thus

m∠ADC+m∠CDB=180°.

Since m∠ADC=115°, you have that m∠CDB=180°-115°=65°.

2. Triangle BCD is isosceles triangle, because it has two congruent sides CB and CD. The base of this triangle is segment BD. Angles that are adjacent to the base of isosceles triangle are congruent, then

m∠CDB=m∠CBD=65°.

The sum of the measures of interior angles of triangle is 180°, therefore,

m∠CDB+m∠CBD+m∠BCD=180° and

m∠BCD=180°-65°-65°=50°.

3. Triangle ABC is isosceles, with base BC. Then

m∠ABC=m∠ACB.

From the previous you have that m∠ABC=65° (angle ABC is exactly angle CBD). So

m∠ACB=65°.

4. Angles BCD and DCA together form angle ACB. This gives you

m∠ACB=m∠ACD+m∠BCD,

m∠ACD=65°-50°=15°.

Answer: 15°.

Solve the initial value problem y′+y=f(t),y(0)=0 where f(t)={1,−1, if t&lt;4 if t≥4 Use h(t−a) for the Heaviside function shifte
Anton [14]

Looks like the function on the right hand side is

f(t)=\begin{cases}1&\text{for }t

We can write it in terms of the Heaviside function,

h(t-a)=\begin{cases}1&\text{for }t\ge a\\0&\text{for }t>a\end{cases}

as

f(t)=h(t)-2h(t-4)

Now for the ODE: take the Laplace transform of both sides:

y'(t)+y(t)=f(t)

\implies s Y(s)-y(0)+Y(s)=\dfrac{1-2e^{-4s}}s

Solve for <em>Y</em>(<em>s</em>), then take the inverse transform to solve for <em>y</em>(<em>t</em>):

(s+1)Y(s)=\dfrac{1-e^{-4s}}s

Y(s)=\dfrac{1-e^{-4s}}{s(s+1)}

Y(s)=(1-e^{-4s})\left(\dfrac1s-\dfrac1{s+1}\right)

Y(s)=\dfrac1s-\dfrac{e^{-4s}}s-\dfrac1{s+1}+\dfrac{e^{-4s}}{s+1}

\implies y(t)=1-h(t-4)-e^{-t}+e^{-(t-4)}h(t-4)

\boxed{y(t)=1-e^{-t}-h(t-4)(1-e^{-(t-4)})}
