The angle (2y - 5)° and 95° are vertical angles, then they are congruent, that is,
Solving for y:
The angle (3x + 55)° and 85° are vertical angles, then they are congruent, that is,
Solving for x:
Finally, the value of x + y is:
Answer:
tan C = 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
tan theta = opp/ adj
tan C = 3/2
Answer:
x=5 and y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
The opposite parallel sides of any rhombus are going to be equal.
a.) Knowing this you take (x+14) and make it equal to (5x-2). Then you subtract the x from (x+14), and add the 2 from (5x+2), making the new equation 16=4x. You divide 4 by x and by 16, getting the final simplified answer of x=4.
b.) Using the same method you take 3y-3 and set it equal to (2y+4). Then you subtract the 2y from (2y+4) and add the 3 from (3y-3) to bother sides. Now you have your new equation and answer being y=7.
a.) x+14 = 5x-2
b.) 3y-3 = 2y+4
Answer:
1 1/15
Step-by-step explanation:
64 minutes is the same thing as 64/60 minutes.
64 goes into 60 once. 64-60=4, so that would be your numerator. You would keep the denominator as 60, since it's still out of 60.
If you put those numbers together your fraction would be
1 and 4/60, if you want to simplify, 60/4=15, so 1 and 1/15 would be your fraction.
Hope this helped!
3000 Quick answer
Let your calculator do the work. Be careful how you enter this in. (Are you supposed to estimate it? We'll get around to that.) Write it like this.
1.2 * 10^3 divided by 4 * 10^-1 Your calculator will do this nicely. The trick is the - 1. Put it in the calculator like this.
1.2
*
10
^
3
=
÷
4
*
10
^
(-1)
= The calculator should read 3000
That's one way to do it. Another way is just to do it all by hand. The numbers are easy enough
1.2 * 10^3 means shift the decimal 3 places right. 1 200 which is 1200
4 * 10^-1 can be handled 2 ways 10 to the minus 1 in the denominator becomes 10^1 in the numerator. Notice the sign change on the 10 when you shift if :it becomes plus! That's why you did it.
1200 * 10^1
12000
Now you are still left with 4 in the denominator.
12000/4 = 3000.
The first method always works. The second one gives you a better understanding of how powers work. There are other ways of doing this, but these are the two best, I think.
