The slope of XY is the same as the slope of AB because XY is parallel to AB. Parallel lines have the same slope.

Answer: The answer is 23.

Step-by-step explanation: As given in the question and shown in the attached figure, XYZ is a triangle where AB is a mid-segment parallel to the side XY and the slope of AB is 23 . We are to find the slope of XY.

Since the segment AB is parallel to the side XY, and we know that the slopes of two parallel lines are always equal, therefore the slope of XY will be equal to the slope of AB.

The slope of AB is 23, so the slope of XY is also 23.

Thus, 23 is the answer.

17) The line that is John is closer to certain but not exactly on certain so I'd say it's "likely"

18) Using that same example as the one above, if 0 means impossible, then 1 means certain. I'd place your label for Sara at 1.

19) Let s = sides of the square. There are 4 sides and all sides are equal so we can set up the equation 4s = 64. Divide both sides by 4. s = 16. Now add 2 to this. 16 + 2 = 18. The length of each side of the original square was 18.

20) If the scale is 1 cm : 1 meter and the height of the model is 16 cm, then the actual plane must be 16 meters.

21) 2x and 100 are supplementary angles meaning together they must add up to 180.

2x + 100 = 180
2x = 180 - 100
2x = 80
Divide both sides by 2
x = 40

22) Assuming 3x is supposed to be the right angle, right angles are 90 degrees.

3x = 90
Divide by 3 on both sides
x = 30.

Javon spent %687 on pokemon cards. Energy cards cost $6 and dragon cards cost $5. If he bought a total of 127 packs then how man

pshichka [43]

Answer:

Javon purchase Energy cards = 52

Javon purchase Dragon cards = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Javon spent $687 on pokemon cards. Energy cards cost $6

and dragon cards cost $5.

To find - If he bought a total of 127 packs then how many of each did he buy ?

Proof -

Let Javon purchase Energy cards = x

Javon purchase Dragon cards = y

Now,

Given that he bought a total of 127 packs

⇒x + y = 127

Also,

Cost for 1 Energy card = $6

⇒Cost of x Energy cards = $ 6x

And

Cost of 1 Dragon card = $5

⇒Cost of y Dragon card = $ 5y

Now,

Given that Javon spent $687 on pokemon cards.

⇒6x + 5y = 687

∴ we get

x + y = 127 ..................(1)

6x + 5y = 687 .................(2)

Multiply by 6 in equation (1) , we get

6(x + y) = 6(127)

⇒6x + 6y = 762 .................(3)

Now,

Subtract equation (2) from equation (1) , we get

6x + 6y - (6x + 5y )= 762 - 687

⇒6x + 6y - 6x - 5y = 75

⇒y = 75

Now,

Put the value of y in equation (1), we get

x + 75 = 127

⇒x = 127 - 75

⇒x = 52

∴ we get

Javon purchase Energy cards = x = 52

Javon purchase Dragon cards = y = 75
