Answer:

  • x + y = 20
  • 20x +30y = 450

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the total number of cases is ...

  x + y = 20

The equation for the total cost of the cases is ...

  20x +30y = 450

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The solution to these equations is (x, y) = (15, 5).

7.) Find the 3rd angle of the first triangle, then<br> find the value of x.<br> 600<br> 400<br> (x)
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180 so the third angle in the first triangle is 180 - 60 - 40 = 80

The value of x is 40 because given triangles are have two pair of angles that are equal.

The ceiling of Katie’s living room is a square that is 15 ft long on each side. To decorate for a party, she plans to hang crepe
goldfiish [28.3K]

I think that 3 rolls is wrong and that 6 rolls is right. If you create a 15 by 15 square and draw two lines through the center that connect to the opposite corner, you'll be able to use the Pythagorean Theorem.


Perimeter: 15+15+15+15=60ft.


Length of Line from Corner to Corner:

(15)(15)+(15)(15)=C^2

225+225=C^2

450=C^2

21.2=C

21.2(2)= 42.4ft.

42.4ft.+60ft.= 102.4ft.

102.4ft. divided by 20ft. = 5.12 = <u>6 rolls</u>

Anton will be constructing a segment bisector with a compass and straightedge, while Maxim will be constructing an angle bisecto
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

A bisector is a line that divides either a line or an angle into <em>two</em><em> proportionate</em> parts or angles. Thus, Anton's <em>bisector</em> would divide the segment into two <u>equal parts</u>, while Maxim's <em>bisector</em> would divide the angle into two <u>equal angles</u>.

The <u>similarities</u> between their construction are:

  • <em>Intersecting</em> arcs through which the bisector would pass are required.
  • The arcs are dawn using <em>the same</em> radius of any measure.
  • The <em>edges</em> of the arc of the given angle, and the ends of the segment are used as <em>centers</em>.

The <u>differences</u> between their construction are:

  • Anton has to draw two intersecting arcs <u>above</u> and <u>below</u> the segment. While Maxim would draw two intersecting arcs <u>within</u> the lines forming the angles.
  • Anton's bisector would be <em>perpendicular</em> to the segment, while Maxim's bisector would be at <em>an angle</em> which is half of the initial angle.
