Adjacent angles create linear pairs so they add to 180. If we know the measure of one angle, we can find the other by subtracting from 180.

Vertical lines create congruent angles. If we know the measure of one angle, we know the measure of the angle opposite of it (they only share a vertex, no sides)

Charles and Seth are building a ramp for Sasha and Samantha. The base of the triangle is 11ft and it's height is 5ft. How long i
Arlecino [84]

Answer: 12.1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A ramp represents a right-angled triangle so Pythagorean formula can be used to find the diagonal length which will also be the hypotenuse.

c² = a² + b²

Where:

c = hypotenuse

a = base

b = Height

c² = 11² + 5²

c² = 121 + 25

c² = 146

c = √146

c = 12.1 ft

What is the common denominator of (5/x^2-4) - (2/x+2) in the complex fraction (2/x-2) - (3/x^2-4)/(5/x^2-4) - (2/x+2)
PIT_PIT [208]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • common denominator: (x² -4)
  • simplified complex fraction: (2x +1)/(9 -2x)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is helpful to remember the factoring of the difference of squares:

  a² -b² = (a -b)(a +b)

__

Your denominator of (x² -4) factors as (x -2)(x +2). You will note that one of these factors is the same as the denominator in the other fraction.

It looks like you want to simplify ...

  \dfrac{\left(\dfrac{2}{x-2}-\dfrac{3}{x^2-4}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{5}{x^2-4}-\dfrac{2}{x+2}\right)}=\dfrac{\left(\dfrac{2(x+2)}{(x-2)(x+2)}-\dfrac{3}{(x-2)(x+2)}\right)}{\left(\dfrac{5}{(x-2)(x+2)}-\dfrac{2(x-2)}{(x-2)(x+2)}\right)}\\\\=\dfrac{2(x+2)-3}{5-2(x-2)}=\boxed{\dfrac{2x+1}{9-2x}}

What is the equation of the line connecting (1,5) and (4,14)?
german
To find the slope of the line:
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(14-5)/(4-1)=(9)/(3)=3

Only one of your 4 possible answers has 3 as a slope. However, plugging in each point into the y=mx+b equation, the y-intercept consistently comes out as 2..
y=mx+b
14=3(4)+b  b=2
5=3(1)+b    b=2
y=3x+2
If there is a consistent, positive slope (from your question, this does not seem to have a quadratic as an option), 3x+5 is not even a viable solution because x=1 when the y-value is 5 (and thus no other x value {0} could have a y-value of 5). It seems as though you have a typo on your hands. Hopefully this helps?

Corey spent 25% of his savings on a printer at Louie’s Electronics.
KengaRu [80]
Let c represent the original amount that this guy had saved up.

He spent 25% of this amount, or 0.25c, on the printer. 

To progress further, we have to know how much the printer cost.

Supposing that the printer cost $100 (which we do not know as a fact), this would be equal to 0.25c.

Thus, his savings originally amounted to c = $100/0.25 = $400.

John and his son are building a boxcar for a group competition. According to the rules of the competition, the length of the car
kozerog [31]

Answer:

x ≥ y + 2

0.50 (x) (x+3) + 2.25 (4) (y) ≤ 50

Step-by-step explanation:

x = width of the car

x+3 = length of the car

y = radius of the car

The width must be at least 2 inches greater than the radius, so:

x ≥ y + 2

The total cost must be no more than $50, so:

0.50 (x) (x+3) + 2.25 (4) (y) ≤ 50
