Answer:

a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Fill in the given values:

a*5-2*7 = 1 =>

5a = 1 + 14

a = 15/5 = 3

Answer:

a=3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you replace the variables x and y in the equation with their respectful values, making the equation 5a-2(7)=1.

Then, you simplify the -2(7), which equals 14, making the equation 5a-14=1.

Then, you add 14 from both sides, making the equation 5a=15.

Finally, you divide both sides by 5, making the answer a=3.

What is the value of x?<br><br> Enter your answer, as a decimal, in the box.
iragen [17]

Answer:

x = 67.50 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider, ΔMAB and ΔMNP,

∠M = ∠M (Common)

Given AB║NP and let MN as transversal,

∠MAB = ∠MNP (alternate angle)

Also, Given AB║NP and let MP as transversal,

∠MBA = ∠MPN (alternate angle)

Therefore, ΔMAB ≅ ΔMNP (By AAA similarity )

Thus, by CPCT,

\frac{MA}{MN}=\frac{MB}{MP}=\frac{AB}{NP}

consider first two ratios,

\frac{MA}{MN}=\frac{MB}{MP}

Substitute the values, MA = MN - AN = 49.5 ft

\frac{49.5}{71.5}=\frac{x}{97.5}

On solving for x , we get, x = 67.50 ft

Thus, value of x is 67.50 ft

Marlo uses 252 lb of gravel to cover a garden plot of 36 ft2. clear check how many pounds of gravel does it take to cover one sq
timama [110]

7 lb will cover an area of 1 square foot, while 315 lb will cover an area of 45 square feet.

From given question,

252 lb = 36 ft²             ..........(1)

The number of pound for an area of 1 square foot is calculated as follows:

x = 1 ft²                       .......(2)

The area and the amount of gravel are illustrations of proportions.

From (1) and (2) we get an equation,

⇒ x × 36 = 252 × 1

⇒ x = 252/36

⇒ x = 7 lb

We need to find the area that could be covered with 315 lb of gravel

The area to be covered with 315 lb gravel is calculated as follows:

315 lb = y               ............(3)

From (1) and (3) we get an equation,

⇒ y × 252 = 36 × 315

⇒ y = 45 ft²

Therefore, 7 lb will cover an area of 1 square foot, while 315 lb will cover an area of 45 square feet.

Find the angle measures given the figure is a rhombus
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

74°

Step-by-step explanation:

A rhombus is a quadrilateral that has its opposite sides to be parallel to be each other. This means that the two interior opposite angles are equal to each other. Since the sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.

According to the triangle, since one of the acute angle is 32°, then the acute angle opposite to this angle will also be 32°.

The remaining angle of the rhombus will be calculated as thus;

= 360° - (32°+32°)

= 360° - 64°

= 296°

This means the other two opposite angles will have a sum total of 296°. Individual obtuse angle will be 296°/2 i.e 148°

This means that each obtuse angles of the rhombus will be 148°.

To get the unknown angle m°, we can see that the diagonal cuts the two obtuse angles equally, hence one of the obtuse angles will also be divided equally to get the unknown angle m°.

m° = 148°/2

m° = 74°

Hence the angle measure if m(1) is 74°
