Answer:

The triangle angle rule says that all of the angles in a triangle will add up to equal 180. So to find x we subtract the given angles ( 45 and 60 in this case) from 180.

x = 180-60-45

180-60-45=75

so x = 75

To find y we know that angle x and and y are angles formed on a straight line that are split up by a triangle segment. These angles are called supplementary angles which add up to equal 180.

So knowing that angle x = 75 we can find angle y by subtracting 75 from 180

180-75=105 so y = 105

Another way we could solve for y is the exterior triangle rule

This rule states that an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the two opposite interior angles

so y = 45 + 65

45 + 65=105

so y = 105

∠E and ∠F are vertical angles with m∠E=8x+8 and m∠F=2x+38 .<br><br> What is the value of x?

Zigmanuir [339]

We know that ∠E = ∠F because of the vertical angle theorem.

Using substitution we get 8x + 8 = 2x + 38

Solve for x.

8x + 8 = 2x + 38
8x = 2x = 30 <-- Subtract 8 from each side
6x = 30 <-- Subtract 2x from each side
x = 5 <-- Divide both sides by 6

So, x is equal to 5.

A certain triangle has a perimeter of 3084 mi. The shortest side measures 76 mi less than the middle side, and the longest side

kari74 [83]

shortest side: 851

middle side:927

longest side : 1306

Explanation

Step 1

Let

x represents the shortest side

y represents the middle side

z represents the longest side

so, set the equations

a) the perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the sides, so

$\begin{gathered} \text{Perimeter= side1+side2+side3} \\ replace \\ 3084=x+y+z \\ x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \end{gathered}$

b) The shortest side measures 76 mi less than the middle side( in other words, you have to subtract 76 from middle side to get the shortest side)

$x=y-76\Rightarrow equation(2)$

c) and the longest side measures 379 mi more than the middle side,( in other words, you have to add 379 to middle side to obtain the longest side)

$z=y+379\Rightarrow equation(3)$

Step 2

solve the equations

a) now, replace the x an z value sfrom equation (2) and (3) into equation(1)

$\begin{gathered} x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \\ (y-76)+y+(y+379)=3084 \\ -76+3y+379=3084 \\ 303+3y=3084 \\ 3y=3084-303 \\ \\ 3y=2781 \\ \text{divide both sides by 3} \\ \frac{3y}{3}=\frac{2781}{3} \\ y=927 \end{gathered}$

now, replace the y value in equatino (2) to find x

$\begin{gathered} x=y-76\Rightarrow equation(2) \\ x=927-76 \\ x=851 \end{gathered}$

c) finally, prelace x and y value in equation (1) to find z

$\begin{gathered} x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \\ 851+927+z=3084 \\ \text{add like terms} \\ 1778+z=3084 \\ \text{subtract 1778 in both sides} \\ 1778+z-1778=3084-1778 \\ z=1306 \end{gathered}$

shortest side: 851

middle side:927

longest side : 1306

What is the vertex of the graph of y = x^2+ 4x?

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

(-2, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can complete the square of the equation to get

y+(4/2)^2 = x^2+4x+(4/2)^2

y+4 = x^2 + 4x + 4

y+4 = (x+2)^2

y = (x+2)^2 - 4

This gives the form y = a(x-h)^2 + k where (h, k) is the vertex of the equation. You can also arrive at the same conclusion by making some observations of the equation. (x+2)^2 minimum value is going to be 0 since and negative values resulting from x+2 is going to become positive because of the square. So the minimum value is when x+2 is 0 or when x is equal to -2 and when it's at that minimum value of 0 it's going to have 4 subtracted from it which gives the vertex of (-2, -4)
