Answer:mot sire
Step-by-step explanation:
ANSWER:
84; Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem
Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees
ratio of 1:4.....added = 5
1/5(180) = 180/5 = 36 <=== smaller angle
4/5(180) = 720/5 = 144 .... larger angle
Wilda can do the job in 4 hours ... she does 1/4 (or 0.25) of it each hour.
Karla can do it in 5 hours ... she does 1/5 (or 0.2) of it each hour.
Wilda worked alone for 1 hour ... 0.25 of the job was done before her helper
arrived. So only 0.75 of the job remained to be done together.
Working together, they accomplish (0.25 + 0.2) = 0.45 of the job in 1 hour.
How many times do they need to do 0.45 of the job in order to finish
the 0.75 of it that remains ? That's the number of hours it will take them,
working together.
0.75 / 0.45 = <em>1 and 2/3</em>
After Wilda worked alone for 1 hour and Karla came along to join her, it will
take them another <em>1 hour and 40 minutes</em> to finish the job and go for a swim.
Answer:
15.
x = 40/9 = 4 4/9
z = 24/5 = 4 4/5
17.
x = 50
y ≈ 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
15. Corresponding segments are proportional:
top right side / whole right side = x / 8
5/(5+4) = x/8
x = 8(5/9) = 40/9
x = 4 4/9
__
right side bottom / right side top = z / 6
z = 6(4/5) = 24/5
z = 4 4/5
____
17. The acute angles are complementary:
x = 90 -40 = 50
__
From the Pythagorean theorem:
y = √(15² -9.6²) = √132.84
y ≈ 11.5
