<h3>Answer:  122 degrees</h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

Angle BAC can be shortened to "angle A" since the letter A is in the middle.

Angle BCA can be shortened to "angle C" for similar reasoning.

We're told that angles A and C are base angles. For any isosceles triangle, the base angles are congruent

-----------

Let's use this fact to solve for x.

angle A = angle C

7x+1 = 5x+9

7x-5x = 9-1

2x = 8

x = 8/2

x = 4

Once we know what x is, we can find each base angle

  • angle A = 7x+1 = 7*4+1 = 28+1 = 29
  • angle C = 5x+9 = 5*4+9 = 20+9 = 29

Both angles A and C are 29 degrees each, so this confirms we have the correct x value.

-----------

The last step is to use the fact that all three angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees. This will help us find angle B, which is the vertex angle.

A+B+C = 180

29+B+29 = 180

B+58 = 180

B = 180-58

B = 122

The vertex angle is 122 degrees.  

So we can say either angle B = 122, or we could say angle ABC = 122

"angle ABC" is the same as "angle CBA".

A stick has a length of $5$ units. The stick is then broken at two points, chosen at random. What is the probability that all th
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

4/25 = 0.16

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest stick must be between 0 and 5/3.  The probability that it is longer than 1 is therefore:

(5/3 − 1) / (5/3 − 0)

(2/3) / (5/3)

2/5

So the probability that both of the shortest sticks are longer than 1 is (2/5)² = 4/25.

14. According to a recent government study, the average 15-year-old male gets 11.4% of his daily caloric intake from sugar drink
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

273.6

Step-by-step explanation:

11.4% of his daily calories intake is from sugar drink.

If he consumes 2400 calories each day , the amouth that comes from sugar drink will be 11.4% /100% x 2400

0.114 x 2400

273.6

So 273.6 calories comes from sugar drinks
