Hello!

\large\boxed{x = 8}

The two angles pictured are corresponding angles, so they are congruent.

Therefore:

17x - 4 = 12 + 15x

Isolate for x by subtracting 15x from both sides:

2x - 4 = 12

Add 4 to both sides:

2x = 16

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 8.

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

These angles are what we call corresponding angles. This simply means that they are the same. Therefore, we set 17x-4 equal to 12+15x. To isolate x, add 4 to both sides, and subtract 15x from both sides. 2x=16. x=8. To check, both angles = 132 degrees.

HELP MEEE PLS recipe cslls for 2 cups of suger and makes 48 cookies recipe B calls for 3 cups of suger and makes 54 of the same
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

So, when we solve for x we see that we can make 16 cookies using 1 cup of sugar. Then, yes, as you suggested we could divide 30 cookies by this ratio to see that we need less than 2 cups of sugar to make 30 cookies: And, as you said, this value is less than 2 cups, the value under Quantity B. Good job! I hope this helps :)

At noon, ship A is 180 km west of ship B. Ship A is sailing east at 35 km/h and ship B is sailing north at 25 km/h. How fast is
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Gotta love these motion  problems!!! This one  is especially tricky!  At noon, ship A is 180 km west of ship B.  If ship A is traveling east, it is closing its distance to ship B (if ship B didn't move).  But ship B is moving north at the same time.  We need to find the distance each can travel in 4 hours using the d = rt formula.  For ship A.  We know it's moving at 35 km/h, so in 4 hours it can move d = 35(4) which is 140 km.  Remember that is closing the distance to ship B.  So it is 180 - 140 directly south of ship B.  This problem will turn out to be a right triangle problem of sorts.  The distance of 40 km serves as the base of this right triangle.  

With ship B moving north at 25 km/hr, it can travel d = 25(4) which is 100 km.  This serves as the height of the triangle.  We are asked to find the rate at which the distance is changing 4 hours from their starting points.  We know how far each can travel in those 4 hours, so in order to find the rate of change (which is the same thing as the slope!), we take the height and divide it by the base because that is the same thing as taking the rise over the run.  100/40 is 10/4 which is a rate of change of 2.5 km/hr
