The rate defines how much the portion is of the base.
Answer:
-8/5 = -1.6 (the smallest number here)
-5/8 = -0.625
your answer is A :)
Eliminate the x terms: Multiply the second equation by 2
-10x+12y=20
Add it to the first equation
10x-4y=-8
-10x+12y=20
——————-
0x+8y=12
y = 1.5
10x-4(1.5)=-8
10x = -2
x = -1/5
Answer:
<u>1st pic:</u>
x = 49
top angle = 45
bottom angle = 108
far right angle = 27 degrees
<u>2nd pic:</u>
angle 1 = 88 degrees
angle 2 = 57 degrees
angle 3 = 35 degrees
angle 4 = 145 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>1st pic:</u>
you can find the far right angle by taking 153 and subtracting it from 180:
⇒ 180 - 153 = 27 degrees
you can find x by the following equation ⇒ x - 4 + 2x + 10 + 27 = 180
combine like terms ⇒ 3x + 33 = 180
subtract 33 from each side ⇒ 3x + 33 - 33 = 180 - 33 ⇒ 3x = 147
divide 3 on each side: ⇒ 
x = 49
to find the top and bottom angles, substitute 49 for x:
top angle : x - 4
49 - 4 = 45 degrees
bottom angle: 2x + 10
2 x 49 + 10 = 108 degrees
<u>2nd pic:</u>
angle 1:
⇒ 180 - 92 = 88 degrees
angle 2:
⇒ 180 - 123 = 57 degrees
angle 3:
⇒ 180 - (88 + 57) = 35 degrees
angle 4:
⇒ 180 - 35 = 145 dgerees
Answer:
1) 13 ft.
2) 23.3 m (when rounded to 1 dp)
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem states that
when a and b are the two legs (the sides adjacent to the right angle) and c is the hypotenuse (the longest side). This only applies to right triangles.
<u>1) Question 1</u>
The lengths of the two legs in the image are 12 ft. and 5 ft. We know that these are the legs because they are the sides adjacent to the right angle. We're solving for the length of the ladder, which in this case would represent the hypotenuse (c). Plug the values 12 and 15 into the equation as a and b and solve for c:

Take the square root of both sides

Therefore, the length of the ladder is 13 ft.
<u>2) Question 2</u>
The lengths of the legs in the image are 20 m and 12 m. Again, we know that these are the legs because they are the sides adjacent to the right angle, which in this case would be the corner of the garden. We're solving for the length of the fence going diagonally from one corner to the other, which represents the hypotenuse (c). Plug the values 20 and 12 into the equation as a and b and solve for c:

Take the square root of both sides

Therefore, the length of the fence when rounded to 1 decimal point is 23.3 m.
I hope this helps!
