Answer:
x = 14
m∠SOP = (7x - 2)° = 96°
m∠SOR = (5x + 14) = 84°
Step-by-step explanation:
`From the given picture,
Angle SOP and angle SOR are the linear pairs.
Therefore, sum of these angles will be equal to to 180°.
m∠SOP + m∠SOR = 180° -----(1)
Since, m∠SOP = (7x - 2)° and m∠SOR = (5x + 14)°
[There is a misprint in this question. There should be x in place of y in the measures of the angles]
By substituting these values in the equation (1),
(7x - 2) + (5x + 14) = 180
12x + 12 = 180
12x = 180 - 12
12x = 168
x = 
x = 14
m∠SOP = (7x - 2)° = 96°
m∠SOR = (5x + 14) = 84°
Remember that c is the initial height. Since we the rocket is in a 99-foot cliff, c=99. Also, we know that the velocity of the rocket is 122 ft/s; therefore v=122
Lets replace the values into the the vertical motion formula to get:
Notice that the rocket hits the ground at the bottom of the cliff, which means that the final height is 99-foot bellow its original position; therefore, our final height will be h=-99
Lets replace this into our equation to get:
Now we can apply the quadratic formula
where a=-16, b=122, and c=198
or
or
or
Since the time can't be negative, we can conclude that the rocket hits the ground after 9 seconds.
It would be b because if you take 10 and shusbejsjdhebe
Answer:
x = 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
= 
= 
= 3
multiply both sides by (x - 10)
3(x - 10) = 39 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x - 10 = 13 ( add 10 to both sides )
x = 23
