<u>Answer</u>
59°
<u>Explanation</u>
There are 2 parallel line and one transverse.
Angles in a straight line add up to 180°
∴ 180 - (2a + 3) = 180 - 2a -3
= 177 - 2a
The angle (177 - 2a) corresponds to angle a in the diagram. The two corresponding angles are equal.
∴ 177 - 2a = a
177 = a + 2a
3a = 177
a = 177/3
= 59°
The train is traveling at 57 miles per hour.
Answer:
A. y = 1.5m + 7
B. at 7 months the baby will weigh 17.5 pounds
C. Since the baby is born weighing 7 pounds, at 0 months he will weigh 7 pounds. This tells us that the y-intercept will be seven. And since the baby is gaining 1.5 pounds every month, this means that the slope will be 1.5 and m will be the x of our y = mx + b equation. For part B, we simply plug in 7 to m and solve by multiplying 1.5 and 7 to get 10.5, then adding 7 to get 17.5.
Answer is below this comment :D
Assuming that the fee is purely based on duration, the equation would look like this:
c= a*p
where c= cost, a= rates per hour, p= hours of parking
Alexandra pays 7$ for 3 hours parking. So, a would be:
c= a*p
7$= a * 3 hr
a= 7$/3hr
Then the final equation would be:
c= (7/3) *p
