Answer:
x = 120
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's draw an imaginary dot in the middle of that <u>line</u> which runs between those two parallel lines, and now lets look at it as an angle.
This lines' angle is 180 degrees. Now lets move those two parallel lines together on the imaginary dot in the middle.
We can see that on the left side is one degree and the other side is another, however when we put them together we get the angle measurement of the our line which we identified was 180.
Now that we can see that our two angles must equal 180 when put together we know and can say that:
40 + (x + 20) = 180
So, lets work this out like basic algebra now.
40 + x + 20 = 180
x + 60 = 180
- 60 - 60
x = 120
And voila we have our x value.
Hope this helps :)
You can observe that angle 1 and angle with 47° are inside a parallelogram.
Consider that the sum of the internal angles of a parallelogram is 360°.
Moreover, consider that the angle at the top right of the parallogram is congruent with the angle of 47°, then, such an angle is if 47°.
Consider that angle down right side is congruent with angle 1, then, they have the same measure.
You can write the previous situation in the following equation:
47 + 47 + ∠1 + ∠1 = 360 simplify like terms
94 + 2∠1 = 360 subtract both sides by 94
2∠1 = 360 - 94
2∠1 = 266 divide by 2 both sides
∠1 = 266/2
∠1 = 133
Hence, the measure of angle 1 is m∠1 = 133°

Answer:
x = 2 cm
y = 2 cm
A(max) = 4 cm²
Step-by-step explanation: See Annex
The right isosceles triangle has two 45° angles and the right angle.
tan 45° = 1 = x / 4 - y or x = 4 - y y = 4 - x
A(r) = x* y
Area of the rectangle as a function of x
A(x) = x * ( 4 - x ) A(x) = 4*x - x²
Tacking derivatives on both sides of the equation:
A´(x) = 4 - 2*x A´(x) = 0 4 - 2*x = 0
2*x = 4
x = 2 cm
And y = 4 - 2 = 2 cm
The rectangle of maximum area result to be a square of side 2 cm
A(max) = 2*2 = 4 cm²
To find out if A(x) has a maximum in the point x = 2
We get the second derivative
A´´(x) = -2 A´´(x) < 0 then A(x) has a maximum at x = 2
Here you are giving only the amount they want to raise (namely profit times number of magazines sold), and here you are also giving Money they want to raise... So clarifying, the money they want to raise, should include the money they will spend on buying the magazines (there is no statement saying they found them, or were given the magazines, so a cost should be involved)
Now if they are only making the count of "Field trip costs X amount of money, and given we have to make a profit of $5.5, How many must we sell?" then the equation should be n=X/5.5
Should the story be, how much money must they raise to have a profit of 5.5 on each magazine and still have enough for the field trip, then you have a different equation which varies only in adding the cost of each magazine, either case, M should be defined not as money they need to raise (cause here they will be short on their goal) but Money they must earn. And again, you should rewrite your equation to be:
M=Amount they must raise
C=Cost per magazine
n=Number of magazines
p=profit $5.5 per magazine
C+p=M/n
And rewriting the previous they should make:
n(C+p)=M -----> n(C+5.5)=M <span>m/n = 5.50 </span>
<span>m/n x n = 5.50 x n //// multiply each side by n </span>
<span>m = 5.5n</span>
