Answer:

There is no distance between them

Step-by-step explanation:

For a 30 ft electric line to be placed between two 20ft electric poles, it would take 15 ft of the electric line to go down to about 5 ft above the ground and another 15 ft of the line to go to the top of the second electric pole. This means that a total of 30ft (15 ft + 15 ft) electric line would be needed which is all the cable we have.

For this to be possible then the poles must be adjacent to each other (i.e. no distance between them).

Lata has collected 75 pennies, Lata's father says that if she arranges the pennies in 15 rows, Lata will be able to make a recta
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Yes, Her father is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

75/15=5 which means that there will be fifteen rows, with five pennies in each row. Since one side has 5 pennies and the other has fifteen, the sides are different and form a rectangle. To check your work, you can do 15*5 which equals 75 the rectangle of pennies should look like this:

∠DEF and ∠FEG are supplementary. m∠DEF=(3x+5)°, and m∠FEG=(2x)°. What is the measure of ∠DEF?
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

DEF = 110

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles add to 180

3x+5  +2x = 180

Combine like terms

5x +5 = 180

Subtract 5 from each side

5x = 175

Divide each side by 5

5x/5 = 175/5

x =35

DEF = 3x+5

     = 3*35 +5

    = 105+5

   = 110

Please help 5 questions I need help
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

1. <2, <7

2. 58

3. 78

4. a and b

h5. <2 and <7 ( i think this is the same question as the first one)

Step-by-step explanation:

2. 2x + 7 = 123 (you have to make them equal to each other because they are consecutive interior angles)

2x + 7 = 123, subtract 7

2x = 116, divide 2 for both sides to make x by itself

x = 58

3. 78 because of consecutive interior angles
