Answer:

$\sf\Huge\boxed{C.40}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

Remember: sum of interior angles of a triangle = 180

so to find x we use this equation

180 = 90 + 7x + 5 + 9x + 5 ( the little square in the triangle indicates that the angle is a right angle. right angles have a measure of 90 so that's where the 90 came from.)

now we solve for x

step 1 combine like terms

90 + 5 + 5 = 100

7x + 9x = 16x

now we have 180 = 16x + 100

step 2 subtract 100 from each side

180 - 100 = 80

100 - 100 cancels out

now we have 80 = 16x

step 3 divide each side by 16

80/16 = 5

16x/16=x

we're left with x = 5

Finally we plug in 5 into x for angle a

7(5)+5

7*5=35

35+5=40

so we can conclude that the measure of angle A is 40 degrees

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (negative 12, negative 2) and (0, negative 4). A point is at (0, 6).

mariarad [96]

Point (-12 , 8) is on the line that passes through (0, 6) and is parallel to the given line ⇒ 1st

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have:

Same slopes
Different y-intercepts

The formula of the slope of a line which passes through points $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{1},y_{1})$ is $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

∵ The given line passes through points (-12 , -2) and (0 , -4)

∴ $x_{1}$ = -12 , $x_{2}$ = 0

∴ $y_{1}$ = -2 , $y_{2}$ = -4

- Use the formula of the slope above to find the slope of the given line

∵ $m=\frac{-4-(-2)}{0-(-12)}=\frac{-4+2}{12}=\frac{-2}{12}=\frac{-1}{6}$

∴ The slope of the given line is $\frac{-1}{6}$

∵ The two lines are parallel

∴ Their slopes are equal

∴ The slope of the parallel line = $\frac{-1}{6}$

∵ The parallel line passes through point (0 , 6)

- The form of the linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope

and b is the y-intercept (y when x = 0)

∵ m = $\frac{-1}{6}$ and b = 6

∴ The equation of the parallel line is y = $\frac{-1}{6}$ x + 6

Let us check which point is on the line by substitute the x in the equation by the x-coordinate of each point to find y, if y is equal the y-coordinate of the point, then the point is on the line

Point (-12 , 8)

∵ x = -12 and y = 8

∵ y = $\frac{-1}{6}$ (-12) + 6

∴ y = 2 + 6 = 8

- The value of y is equal the y-coordinate of the point

∴ Point (-12 , 8) is on the line

Point (-12 , 8) is on the line that passes through (0, 6) and is parallel to the given line

25 is 36% of what number

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

x = 69.44

Step-by-step explanation:

We have, 36% × x = 25

or, 36/100 × x = 25

Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 36,

we have x = 25 × 100/36

x = 69.44

If you are using a calculator, simply enter 25×100÷36, which will give you the answer.

- 1 2 (x + 5) = -10 I need helpppppp

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Do you mean -12(x+5)=-10?

Divide both sides by -12 -> x+5=10/12

Subtract 5 on both sides -> x=10/12-5 -> x=-4 1/6

So x=-4 1/6

Let me know if this wasn't the right equation

Axel lives in Virginia and makes $54,000 a year. If the median annual income in Virginia is $61,233 and the median annual income

Natalka [10]

Answer:

The answer is Yes Axel will qualify for chapter 7 bankruptcy.

Step-by-step explanation:

To qualify for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the debtor must earn less than the state median income on a monthly basis. Here it is given that Axel lives in Virginia and makes $54,000 a year. The median annual income in Virginia is $61,233. So, Axel is earning less than the median income. Hence, he will qualify for chapter 7 bankruptcy.
