Answer:
a dot in an equation means multiplication
Answer:
(a+2) Is your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
You could try synthetic division, but it's pretty complicated (not to mention for much harder problems), so you should try factoring this. What two numbers multiply up to 10 and add up to 7? Using trial and error, we would find these two numbers to be 2 and 5. Therefore, it factors into (a+5)(a+2).
In triangle ABC:
∠1 = 90°
According to the angle sum property:
∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = 180
Since angle 1 is 90 degrees
∠2 + ∠3 = 180 - 90
∠2 + ∠3 = 90° [∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = 180]
To put it in slope intercept form, you want to solve for y.
5y = -6x + 50
y = -6/5x + 10
So, your slope is -6/5 (or -1.2) and your y-intercept is +10.
Answer: angle Q = 75 degrees
--------------------------------------------
The tickmarks on segments PR and PQ indicate they are congruent, ie PR = PQ. Because of this, the base angles R and Q (opposite the segments mentioned) are congruent
Angle R = Angle Q
Since angle R is (2x+15) degrees, so is angle Q
Now use the idea that adding three angles of a triangle leads to 180 degrees
P+Q+R = 180
x+(2x+15)+(2x+15) = 180
5x+30 = 180
5x = 180-30
5x = 150
x = 150/5
x = 30
If x = 30, then angle Q is
angle Q = (2x+15) degrees
angle Q = (2*x+15) degrees
angle Q = (2*30+15) degrees
angle Q = (60+15) degrees
angle Q = 75 degrees
