Answer:

x = -11

Step-by-step explanation:

Well the two equations add up to 180 because they are a linear pair.

x + 56 + x + 146 = 180 (collect like terms)

2x + 202 = 180 (subtract 202 on both sides)

2x = -22 (divide by 2 on both sides)

x = -11

Hope this helps ya!!

X+56+x+146=180 (Because they are linear pair and are equal to 180 degrees)

(Combine like terms)

2x+202=180 (Subtract 202 to both sides because we want the x isolated)

2x+202=180
-202 -202
2x=-22 (Divide)
2 2
X=-11
Hope this helps :D

The time it takes to travel to a destination varies inversely with the average speed. It takes two hours when the average speed

Zolol [24]

Answer:

1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The time it takes to travel to a destination varies inversely as its speed

T= k/S

K= TS

Time= 2 hours

Speed= 40mph

K= 2×40

= 80

Therefore if the average speed changes to 80mph then the new travel time can be calculated as follows

T= 80/80

= 1 hour

Hence the new travel time is 1 hour

A car traveled at a constant speed. The graph shows how far the car traveled, in miles, during a given amount of time, in hours.

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A car traveled at a constant speed as shown in the graph.

Distance traveled is on the y-axis and duration of travel on the x-axis.

Point A(3.5, 210) shows,

Distance traveled = 210 miles

Time to travel = 3.5 hours

So the point (3.5, 210) shows the distance traveled by the car in 3.5 hours is 210 miles.

Slope of the line = speed of the car = $\frac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Time}}$

= $\frac{210}{3.5}$

= 60 mph

Now we will find the speed of the car at another point B(1, 60).

If the speed of car is same as the point B as of point A, point B will lie on the graph.

Speed of the car at B(1, 60) = $\frac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Time}}$

= $\frac{60}{1}$

= 60 mph

Hence, we can say that point B(1, 60) lies on the graph.

At Pizza Pi, 20% of the pizzas made last week had extra cheese. If 50 pizzas had extra cheese, how many pizzas in all were made

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

250 pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the formula 50 = 20/100x. We multiply both sides by 100 to get 5000 = 20x. Now, we divide both sides by 20 to get 250 = x. That means 250 pizzas were made last week.

Myra bought a pair of jeans that cost $55. The sales tax rate is 10 percent. What is the total amount she paid for the jeans?

Semmy [17]

You need to calculate the sale tax and add it to the value of the pair of pants. The tax is calculated by multiplying the cost of the pants times the rate, i.e.tax = $55 * 10% = $55 * 10/100 = $ 55*0.1 = $ 5.5. Now sum this tax to the cost of the pants: $ 55 + $5.5 = $ 60.5. Then, the answer is $ 60.50

Find the length of side AC. A) 5/3 B) 5/2 102 D) 52 2 S.

scoray [572]

Answer:

D. 5√2/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given triangle is right isosceles since one of the angles is 45°

Let the AC = x, then BC = x and AB is:

x² + x² = 5²
2x²=5²
x²= 5²/2
x = 5/√2
x = 5√2/2

Correct option is D
