Ocean waves move in parallel lines toward the shore. The figure shows the path that a windsurfer takes across several waves. For

this exercise, think of the windsurfer's wake as a line. If m∠1 = (5x + 3y)° and m∠2 = (5x + y)°, find x and y.

If you look at the figure, the angle marked red is equal to 70° because vertical angles are equal. So, that also means that the opposite angle 2 is also 70°. So, the first equation is:

70 = 5x + y

Next, the green angle as marked is equal to
Green angle = 180 - 70 = 110
Being vertical angles, angle 1 is then equal to 110°. So,the second equation is

110 = 5x + 3y

Subtract the two equations:

    5x + y = 70
 -  5x + 3y = 110
________________
           -3y = -40
             <em> y = -40/-3 = 13.33°</em>

Substituting y to either one of the equations,
5x + 13.33 = 70
Solving for x,
<em>x = 11.33°</em>

Which of the following equations is equivalent to y=logx?
ElenaW [278]
Remember
log_xn=y means x^y=n

so
assuming that when no base is stated, the base is 10
y=logx means
y^{10}=x

answer is A

Lesley works as a cars salesperson. She makes a monthly base salary of $1500. She also earns a 4% commission on all sales beyond
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

$1,740

Step-by-step explanation:

Setting up an equation to solve for Lesley's total salary would be the sum of her monthly base salary ($1,500) and the amount of her commission for any sales over $20,000:

Salary = $1,500 + (sales - $20,000)(0.04)

Since Lesley sold $26,000 in sales this month, we can calculate her total salary and commission:

Salary = $1500 + ($26,000-$20,000)(0.04) or $1500 + ($6000)(0.04)

Salary = $1500 + $240 = $1,740.00
