Make use of the fact that side lengths in similar triangles are proportional.
.. 30/18 = (20 +x)/20
.. 20*(30/18) -20 = x . . . . multiply by 20, subtract 20
.. 33 1/3 -20 = x . . . . . . . . evaluate the product
.. 13 1/3 = x
You’re answer is y=-1/1.5x+2.5
Explanation
2.5 is you’re y intersect and you go over one < and up 1.5
Answer:
The measures of the angles are 150° and 30°.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the measures of the angles, with x representing the larger angle.
x + y = 180 . . . . . . the two angles are supplementary
x = 90 + 2y . . . . . one is 90° more than twice the other
___
Substituting the expression given by the second equation into the first, we have ...
(90 +2y) +y = 180
3y = 90 . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 90
y = 30 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of y
x = 180 -y = 150
The measures of the angles are 150° and 30°.
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area is the product of 2 adjacent sides:
Area = (5x - 3y)(5x - 3y) as the sides of a square are all equal.
= 5x(5x - 3y) - 3y(5x - 3y)
= 25x^2 - 15xy - 15xy + 9y^2
= 25x^2 - 30xy + 9y^2.
