Answers and Step-by-step explanations:
9-18.
a) All the angles of a triangle add up to 180, by definition. So, we can write the expression: 30 + 115 + x = 180.
Then, we can just solve for x by subtracting 30 and 115 from both sides:
x = 180 - 115 - 30 = 35 degrees
b) Again all three angles should add up to 180, so:
x + x + x = 180 ⇒ 3x = 180 ⇒ x = 180/3 = 60 degrees
9-19.
a) These angles add up to 180:
2x + x + 30 = 180 ⇒ 3x + 30 = 180 ⇒ 3x = 150 ⇒ x = 50
2x = 50 * 2 = 100
The missing angles are 100 degrees and 50 degrees.
b) Again, these add up to 180:
x + 10 + x + 90 = 180 ⇒ 2x + 100 = 180 ⇒ 2x = 80 ⇒ x = 40
x + 10 = 40 + 10 = 50
The missing angles are 50 degrees and 40 degrees.
Hope this helps!
I believe the answer should be A {(1, 6.0),(2, 5.75),(3, 5.50)}
19. What you know is that HK+KJ = HJ. If HJ = 25, the sum of the two equations will equal this length.
x-5+5x-12=25 First, combine your like terms. You will end up with 6x-17=25. Add the opposite of -17 to both sides. 6x = 42 Divide both sides by 6. x = 7. Substitute x=7 for your original expression of x-5, 7-5=2
20. (5x-6)/2 = x+6 Multiply each side by 2. 5x-6 = 2x +12 Add 6 to each side 5x = 2x + 18 then subtract 2x from both sides as well. 3x = 18 Finally divide each side by 3. x=6 To find the length of the remaining segment, substitute this value into (5x-6)/2. This results in each side equaling a distance of 12.
21. On the number line, the distance of FG is 16 units. If the distance of FP is 1/4 of FG, you would simply divide 16 by 4. The distance of FP is 4 and P lies at 8 on your number line.
23. The distance of SP is x+4 and ST=4x. Since P is the midpoint, you only have one half of the line as x+4, if you were to double it, you would find that 2x+8 = 4x. Balance and solve for x, subtract 2x from both sides. 8=2x Divide each side by 4, 8/4 = 4x/4 resulting in x=2. If ST equals 4x, substitute and solve, 4(2) = 8
Can you see it ?
