Answer:

x=24, y=10, z=17

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that \Delta PHS\cong\Delta CNF.

Then by CPCTC, ∠P≅∠C, ∠H≅∠N, and ∠S≅∠F.

Therefore, let’s solve for each of the angle relations.

∠P≅∠C:

We know that ∠P is 36°. ∠C is (4z-32)°. Therefore:

36=4z-32

Solve for z:

\begin{aligned}36&=4z-32\;\;\; \text{Add 32 to both sides}\\68&=4z\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\text{Divide both sides by 4}\\17&=z\end{aligned}

So, the value of z is 17.

∠H≅∠N

∠H is (6x-29) and ∠N is 115. So:

6x-29=115

Solve for x:

\begin{aligned} 6x-29&=115\;\;\;\;\;\;\text{Add 29 to both sides}\\6x&=144\;\;\;\;\;\;\text{Divide both sides by 4}\\\ x&=24\end{aligned}

Therefore, the value of x is 24.  

∠S≅∠F

We will need to find ∠S.

We already know that ∠P is 36.

∠H will be (6x-29). Substitute 24 for x to acquire: (6(24)-29)=144-29=115.

A triangle always totals 180°. Therefore, 115+36+∠S=180 or 151+∠S=180.

Therefore, ∠S=29.

∠F is (3y-1). So:

29=3y-1

Solve for y:

\begin{aligned} 29&=3y-1\;\;\;\;\;\text{Add 1 to both sides}\\ 30&=3y\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\text{Divide both sides by 3}\\ 10&=y\end{aligned}

Therefore, the value of y is 10.

So, x=24, y=10, and z=17.

And we are done!

Solve by inspection: X+4=15
amid [387]

x + 4 = 15

- 4        -4

x = 11

You would subtract 4 because you need to isolate the x to get the value of x. You would subtract it to both sides because whatever you do on one side, you have to do it to the other side.

Write f(x) / g(x) = 1 / ((x+1)(x-2)).

It's easy to see that x cannot be -1 and 2;
So all real numbers exclude -1 and 2, which matches the second choice.

Leah has a 20% off coupon for a sports store. There is a tennis racket that is available at a discount of 10%. The store applies
Art [367]

Answer:the orginal price of the tennis racket is $47

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the original price of the tennis racket at the sports store.

Leah has a 20% off coupon for the sports store. The tennis racket is available at a discount of 10%.

The store applies the coupon after the 10% is taken. The value of the discount on the original price of the tennis racket would be

10/100 × x = 0.1 × x = $0.1x

The discounted price of the racket would be

x - 0.1x = 0.9x

The value of the coupon would be

20/100 × 0.9x = 0.2 × 0.9x = 0.18x

The selling price after the coupon was applied would be

0.9x - 0.18x = 0.72x

She buys the racket for $34. This means that

0.72x = 34

x = 34/0.72 = $47
