Answer:
50x+100=y
y=550
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the first caller can win $100, you add 100 onto the end. After you add 50 for every person who answered incorrectly. X being amount tried/answered incorrectly, and Y being the amount you can win at that given time
Answer:
B = 160°
Step-by-step explanation:
This is how I solved it (I hope the explanation isn't too confusing):
Since L and K are parallel, I drew a straight line from A to B. By doing this, I'm making a triangle: ΔABC
Then I solved for the angles of the triangle. First, we are given that ∠C = 80° and ∠A = 120°. Although, when I drew the vertical line from A to B, it made a 90° (see attachment).
So what we basically did was break ∠A into two parts: an angle inside ΔABC and one outside. To find the interior angle, simply subtract 90° from 120° to get 30°.
There are 180° in a triangle, so add the two interior angles you know:
30° + 80° = 110°
Then subtract 110° from 180° to find the final interior angle which is:
180° - 110° = 70°.
To find the measure of angle B, you must add all of the parts together, so the 90° outside angle and the 70° interior angle:
90° + 70° = 160°
An ordered pair (x,y) is a solution to a system of equations if it makes all the equations true.
Let's check whether (–1, 5) makes the equations true.
Plugging –1 in the first equation for x and 5 in for y, we get
–1 + 5 = 4: TRUE
Plugging –1 in the second equation for x and 5 in for y, we get
–1 – 5 = –6: TRUE
Since it makes both the equations true, it's a solution to the system of equations. So the answer choice is D, the 4th one.
Using a graphical tool we obtain that the solution of this system
(intersection between the lines)
is given by the point
(x,y) = (2,4)
