Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
3x and 144 are adjacent angles on a straight line and sum to 180°
3x + 144 = 180 ( subtract 144 from both sides )
3x = 36 ← value of 3x
divide both sides by 3
x = 12
and
2y - 5 and 95 are vertically opposite angles and are congruent, so
2y - 5 = 95 ← value of 2y - 5
add 5 to both sides
2y = 100 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = 50
Then
x + y = 12 + 50 = 62
They are called vertical angles because the definition of vertical is: <span>in a direction, or having an alignment, such that the top is directly above the bottom. The "angles opposite each other when two lines cross" match the definition.</span>
Answer: $50
Step-by-step explanation: Draw a line through the apparent center of the scattered dots. See where that line intersects 9 in the time scale (x-axis numbers) and the dollars earned scale (y-axis numbers)
It could be 50 or 55, but since there are a few more dots below the apparent midline, it may be best to use the lower estimate.
Answer:
<h2><em><u>
y = -x - 1</u></em></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The line is going in a negative direction. This means that the line is negative. The slope is -1. The y- intercept is the coordinate (0,-1). SO the equation is y = -x - 1.
True.
Since

,

and the solutions are decreasing functions.
