Start with an equation summing all the angles in this triangle:
180 = <M + <N + <P
we are given <M and <N but not <P. But, since MN=NP, the angle <P is the same as the angle <M (isosceles, make a drawing to see). So
180 = 2<M + <N
180 = 2(3x+1) + x-11
180 = 7x - 9
x = 27
<P = 3*27+1 = 82 degrees
6/4 or 1 and 2/4 thats a pretty easy question
Answer:
1.5 inches/ week
Step-by-step explanation
Given
Height of he plant = 3in
If the plant grows by 2in every week
The rate of change = Height of plant/weekly increase
The rate of change = 3/2 = 1.5 inches/ week
Answer:
5
Explanation:
Let the number equal x. Half the number is then
x
2
and the reciprocal of that is
2
x
The reciprocal of the number is
1
x
and half that is

x
then

Zero is not viable solution as its reciprocal is infinity. The answer is therefore
x
=
5
