Answer:

x = 120

y = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that RST is equilateral, each of its interior angles will be 60 degrees

Looking at x, it lies on a starting line with one of the interior angles of RST

The sum of angles on a straight line is 180

Thus;

x + 60 = 180

x = 180-60

x= 120

Looking at triangle RSU, the markings indicates that we have an isosceles triangle

For an isosceles triangle, the base angles are equal in value

This means that SRU is also y

Mathematically, the sum of angles in a triangle is 180

Hence;

x + y + y = 180

x + 2y = 180

120 + 2y= 180

2y = 180-120

2y = 60

y = 60/2

y = 30

Answer: 1. x= 20 units, 2. x= $5\sqrt{3}$ units 3. x= $4\sqrt{2}$ units.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle,

$Hypotenuse^2= Perpendicular^2+Base^2$ (Pythagoras theorem)

1. Hypotenuse = x , Base = 16, Perpendicular = 12

$\Rightarrow\ x^2 =12^2+16^2\\\\ \Rightarrow\ x^2=144+256\\\\ \Rightarrow\ x^2=400\\\\ \Rightarrow\ x=\sqrt{400}=20$

2. Hypotenuse = 14 , Base = 11, Perpendicular = x

$\Rightarrow\ 14^2=x^2+11^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 196=x^2+121\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2=196-121\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2 = 75\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\sqrt{75}=\sqrt{25\times3}=5\sqrt{3}$

3. Hypotenuse = 9 , Base = x, Perpendicular =7

$\Rightarrow\ 9^2=x^2+7^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ 81= x^2+49\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2=81-49\\\\\Rightarrow\ x^2=32\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\sqrt{32}=\sqrt{16\times2}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=4\sqrt{2}$

Solve the following algebraic equation using appropriate

Neko [114]

( x + 1 )/ 3 = x + 2
Multiply 3 on both sides
x + 1 = 3x + 6
Subtract 6 on both sides
x - 5 = 3x
Subtract x from both sides
-5 = 2x
Divide 2 from both sides
x = -2.5

Q4) Kiarah collects data throughout the basketball season and uses these 1 point

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

C. Bulldogs

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we want to compare several numbers with different denominators and find out which number is the least. To compare this number, we have to change the denominator into the same number by finding the least common multiple (LCM) of the 4 numbers. The factor of each number will be:

3= 3 ^1

5= 5^1

8= 2 * 2 * 2 = 2^3

2= 2^1

We can find the LCM by multiplying a higher exponent of each prime number. The LCM will be:3^1 * 5^1 * 2^3 = 120

Each number will be:

Tiger= 2/3 * 40/40= 80/120

Redbird = 4/5 * 24/24= 96/120

Bulldogs = 3/8 * 15/15 = 45/120

Titans = 1/2 * 60/60 = 60/120

As you can see, the team with the lowest chance to play is Bulldogs = 45/120
