Answer:

m<S = 38°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m<R = (x + 17)°

m<S = (2x - 2)°

m<T = (5x + 5)°

Required:

m<S

Solution:

First, we will need to determine the value of x by creating an equation. Thus:

m<R + m<S + m<T = 180° (sum of triangle)

Plug in the values

(x + 17)° + (2x - 2)° + (5x + 5)° = 180°

x + 17 + 2x - 2 + 5x + 5 = 180

Add like terms

8x + 20 = 180

8x + 20 - 20 = 180 - 20

8x = 160

8x/8 = 160/8

x = 20

Find m<S:

m<S = 2x - 2

Plug in the value of x

m<S = 2(20) - 2 = 40 - 2

m<S = 38°

Consider the equation below. X2 + y2 − 2x − 4y − z + 5 = 0 reduce the equation to one of the standard forms. Classify the surfac

jeka57 [31]

we are given

$x^2+y^2-2x-4y-z+5=0$

standard form:

We will complete x , y and z square

make all x , y and z terms together

$x^2-2x+y^2-4y-z+5=0$

$x^2-2x+y^2-4y-z=-5$

$x^2-2*1*x+y^2-2*2*y-z=-5$

$x^2-2*1*x+1^2+y^2-2*2*y+2^2-z=-5+1^2+2^2$

$(x-1)^2+(y-2)^2-z=0$

$z=(x-1)^2+(y-2)^2$

surface:

It is an infinite paraboloid

If y varies directly as x, and y is 12 when x is 1.2, what is the constant of variation for this relation? A) 1 B) 10 C) 10.8 D)

Anit [1.1K]

$\bf \begin{array}{cccccclllll}&\\
\textit{something}&&\textit{varies directly to}&&\textit{something else}\\ \quad \\&\\
\textit{something}&=&{{ \textit{some value}}}&\cdot &\textit{something else}\\ \quad \\&\\
y&=&{{ k}}&\cdot&x&\\
&\\
&& y={{ k }}x&\\
\end{array}& \\\\\\
\textit{we know that }
\begin{cases}
y=12\\
x=1.2
\end{cases}\implies y=kx\implies 12=k\cdot 1.2$

solve for "k" to find "k", or the "constant of variation"
