Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the equation ->

x+32=3x  

(you can get this easily by writing the equation down as you read the problem)

--> revisiting  x+32=3x

-x on both sides to isolate the number and put the like terms together

We are left with  32=2x

Divide 2 on both sides, and you will get x (his current age) --> x=16

Roger is currently 16 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x = 32 + x

2x = 32

x = 16

Answer:

112.5 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the area of the entire circle.

A = pi * r^2

A = pi * (4 m)^2

A = 16pi m^2

The entire circle has area = 16pi m^2.

The sector has area 5pi m^2.

Now we find the fraction the area of the sector is of the entire circle.

fraction = (5pi m^2)/(16pi m^2) = 5/16 = 0.3125

The full circle has a central angle of 360 deg, the entire circle.

The measure of the central angle of the arc of the sector is the same fraction of the entire circle.

measure of sector angle = 0.3125 * 360 deg = 112.5 deg

A line passes through the point (8,-9) and has a slope of -5/2. Write an equation in slope intercept form for this line.
noname [10]

Answer:

y = - \frac{5}{2} x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - \frac{5}{2} , then

y = - \frac{5}{2} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (8, - 9) into the partial equation

- 9 = - 20 + c ⇒ c = - 9 + 20 = 11

y = - \frac{5}{2} x + 11 ← equation of line

In triangle ABC, the size of angle B is 5 times the size of angle A, and the size of angle C is 7 less than 4 times the size of
kipiarov [429]
It sounds like everything is being described in reference to angle A, so a good starting point is to pick a variable to represent the measure of angle A. I'm going to use "a" for that.

Next, I'm going to take the verbal descriptions in the problem and "translate" them into "math language". They say angle B is 5 times angle A, so that means the measure of angle B is actually 5a. The size of angle C is 5 degrees less than 4 times the size of A, so that translates to 4a-5.

We now know the following:

Angle A: a
Angle B: 5a
Angle C: 4a-5

Now, to find the value of a, we need to remember that all the angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

So we have: a+5a+4a-5 = 180

We can solve that equation by combining like terms to get: 10a-5=180

We can add 5 to both sides: 10a =185

And divide by 10: a = 18.5

That tells us the measure of angle A! (It's 18.5 degrees). Now we can go back and find B by multiplying A by 5. We get 92.5 degrees for that.

Finally, we can find C by taking 4*18.5-5. We get 69 degrees for that.

One last thing-- let's check that they really do add up to 180! 69+92.5+18.5 = 180. Yep!

Hope that helps you!!
