a = 85°

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Method 1</em>

5x = 2x + 57° (An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of its two interior opposite angles)

3x = 57°

x = 57/3 = 19°

a = 180 - 57 - 2x

a = 180 - 57 -2(19)

a = 85°

<em>Method 2</em>

2x + a + 57° = 180°

2x + a = 123° ==> 1

5x + a = 180°

x = (180° - a)/5 ==> 2

By substitution

2((180° - a)/5) + a = 123°

(360° - 2a)/5 + a = 123°

(360° - 2a)/5 = 123° - a

360° - 2a = 5(123° - a)

360° - 2a = 615° - 5a

-2a + 5a = 615° - 360°

3a = 255°

a = 85°

Can you explain to me the answers in a and b?
Hoochie [10]

a. The constant of proportionality is k = 2

b. If Micah saves $150, his parents will give him $300

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<h3>PART A.</h3>

From mathematics, we know that y varies directly as x or y is directly proportional to x if and only if:

y=kx for some nonzero constant k.

Here we know some facts:

  • For every $5 that Micah saves, his parents give him $10.

In other words:

Let y be the money his parents give him.

Let x be the money that Micah saves.

We \ know \ that: \\ y=kx \\ \\ \\ Solving \ for \ k: \\ \\ k=\frac{y}{x} \\ \\ k=\frac{10}{5} \\ \\ \boxed{k=2}

So,<em> the constant of proportionality is k = 2</em>

<h3>PART B.</h3>

In this case, we know that Micah saves $150. So we need to find the amount of his parents will give him. So what we know here is the value of x, because x represents the amount of money Micah saves. Therefore, by knowing x and k, we can calculate the value of y, which is the amount of money his parents will give him. Hence:

For \ x=150 \ and \ k=2: \\ \\ y=2(150) \\ \\ \boxed{y=300}

Finally, <em>if Micah saves $150, his parents will give him 300$</em>

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer: D, -13<-10

Step-by-step explanation:

Which ever way the open part of the '<' is facing, means that it is greater than the other number.

-13 is smaller than -10 so the open part of the symbol would face towards -10 and the pointy part would fact towards the -13.

Hope this helps :)
