Two angles are vertical angles. One angle is ( 8x + 15 ) and the other angle is 143. Solve for x.

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Verticle angles are always congruent, so:

(8x + 15) = 143

Now, we can solve to isolate x:

8x + 15 - 15 = 143 - 15  (subtract 15 from both sides)

8x/8 = 128/8                (divide both sides by 8)

x = 16

You can always plug in the value of x to the original equation to check your answer:

8(16) + 15 = 143

A well-mixed cookie dough will produce cookies with a mean of 66 chocolate chips apiece. What is the probability of getting a co
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

0.7262

Step-by-step explanation:

Let random variable = X

Probability of getting a cookie with at least 55 chips:

P(55≤ X ≤78), where X1 = 55 and X2 = 78

Let mean, U = 66 and  standard deviation, S.D. = 10

Let Z = X - U/S.D; Z1 = X1 - U/S.D and Z2 = X2 - U/S.D

Z1 = 55 - 66/10 = - 1.1

Z2 = 78 - 66/10 = 1.2

P(X1≤ X ≤ X2) = P(X1 -U/S.D ≤ X - U/S.D ≤ X2 - U/S.D)

P(Z1 ≤ Z ≤ Z2) = P(0 ≤ Z ≤ Z1) + P(0 ≤ Z ≤ Z2)

Hence, (55 ≤ X ≤ 78) = P( - 1.1 ≤ Z ≤ 1.2)

∴ P(-1.1 ≤ Z ≤ 1.2) = P(0 ≤ Z ≤ 1.1) + (0 ≤ Z ≤ 1.2)

=   0.3413 + 0.3849 = 0.7262

8. The sum of two numbers is 8 less than twice the first number. Their difference is 4 less than twice
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

14 and 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by naming the first number x.

We can name the second number y.

We can set up equations to model our situation.

x+y=2x-8

x-y=2y-4

Let's simplify the equations.

x+y=2x-8

Subtract 2x from both sides

-x+y=-8

__________

x-y=2y-4

Subtract 2y from both sides.

x-3y=-4

Add the two equations together to eliminate x.

x-3y=-4

-x+y=-8

________

0x-2y=-12

-2y=-12

Divide both sides by -2.

y=6

The second number is 6.

Plug that back in.

x+6=2x-8

Subtract x from both sides

6=x-8

Add 8 to both sides

x=14

The first number is 14
