Answer:

x = 16 and y = 121

Yes, its a long process.

Step-by-step explanation:

vertical angles are congruent given that: we do this

(4x-5)+(4x-5)+y+y=360

2(4x-5)+2y=360

divide both sides by 2

(4x-5)+y=180

distribute (there is an invisible 1 beside the parentheses of 4x-5)

4x-5+y=180

add 5 to both sides

4x+y = 185

subtract y from both sides

4x = 185-y

divide both sides by 4

x = (185-y)/4

note that (4x-5) is also EQUAL to (3x+11)

4x-5=3x+11

subtract 3x from both sides

x-5=11

add 5 to both sides

x = 16

Now that we know what x is, we can substitute it in the equation we got from 2(4x-5)+2y=360

Our equation was

x = (185-y)/4

16 = (185-y)/4

Multiply both sides by 4

64 = 185-y

Subtract 185 from both sides

-121=-y

multiply both sides by -1

121 = y

hey, do any of you guys know how to plot functions on a graph. You know like f(X) and g(X)? I find it really hard and also do yo

Tpy6a [65]

It helps if you have an example, like f(x) = 2x+3
What you typically do, is:

- draw xy axis, label them (ie., 1,2,3,4 along both axes)
- calculate the f(x) values for several x (e.g., -2, 0, 1, 3, doesn't matter).
- plot the calculated values as points. The calculated f(x) is your y value.
- sketch a smooth line through the points. It helps if you know in advance if the line is going to be straight or curved.
- The more points you calculate, the more accurate your graph will be

A rectangular prism has a length of 734 inches, a width of 312 inches, and a height of 6 inches. Mario has a storage container f

Answer: $27.6\ in.^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length of Prism is $l= 7.34\ in.$

The width of Prism is $w=3.12\ in.$

The height of Prism is $h=6\ in.$

The volume of a The height rectangular prism is given as

$V=l\times w\times h$

Substituting values we get

$\Rightarrow V=7.34\times 3.12\times 6=137.404\ in.^3$

Volume of storage $V_s=165\ in.^3$

The difference in volume is

$\Rightarrow 165-137.404=27.59\approx 27.6\ in.^3$

Dean had already read 1 book this year before joining a book club, and he plans to read 1 book every month now that he has joine

solniwko [45]

b for books read. b=1x + 1. the amount of months he's been in the club goes for x and +1 because he already read a book before he joined. if you do easy math, he's been there for 8 months because he read 9 books. i probably got the equation backwards but this works both ways imo.
