Answer:

z = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles inside a triangle add up to 180 so:

90 + 40 + 5z + 10 = 180

5z + 140 = 180

5z = 40

z = 8

identify an equation in point-slope form for the line parallel to y=-2/3x+8 that passes through (4,-5)
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

y +5 = (-2/3)(x -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line with slope m through point (h, k) is ...

... y -k = m(x -h)

You have (h, k) = (4, -5) and a slope the same as that of the parallel line, m = -2/3. Then the equation is ...

... y -(-5) = (-2/3)(x -4)

... y +5 = (-2/3)(x -4)

Y=2x+1 when x increases by 5,y increases by​
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

say x=0

then y would be 1

increasing x by 5 makes x=5

and then 5 x 2 + 1=11

so y went from 1-11(difference of 10) with the variation

so the answer is 10

. Show ALL work for the following problem... if you write the answer only, you will not get brainlist: 2(x - 2) = 4x - 6(x - 2)
Rom4ik [11]

Distribute 2 to x and -2, and -6 to x and -2

2(x - 2) = 2x - 4

-6(x - 2) = -6x + 12

2x - 4 = 4x - 6x + 12

Simplify. Combine like terms

2x - 4  = (4x - 6x) + 12

2x - 4 = -2x + 12

Isolate the x. Add 4 to both sides, and 2x to both sides

2x (+2x) - 4 (+4) = -2x (+2x) + 12 (+4)

2x + 2x = 12 + 4

Simplify

4x = 16

Isolate the x. Divide 4 from both sides

4x/4 = 16/4

x = 16/4

x = 4

4 is your answer for x.

hope this helps
