Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The two angles add to 80 degrees. Two remote angles always equal the exterior angle not connected to them.

That means that

x + 5 + x - 5 = 80

2x = 80

x = 40

The base angle is

40 + 40 + y = 180

80 + y = 180

y = 100

Note

You could do this much quicker by noticing that

80 + y = 189

y = 100

No he is not right

The given 2 angles are x + 5 which is 45 and x - 5 which is 35

All he got correct was the fact that the third angle is 100 degrees.

The bottom left angle is 180 -80=(100)

So the remaining 2 angles are equal 80
As all angles in a triangle are equal to 180

X+5 + x - 5 =80
Simplify
2x=80
X=40

Soo one of the angles are 40-5 which is (35)
And the other is 40+5 which is (45)
So sean is not correct
~sorry sean teehee

Answer:

$x=50.6cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle MAB is similar to triangle MNP

Since the triangles are similar, the corresponding ratios are in the same proportion.

Therefore we can write the relation;

$\frac{|MB|}{|MP|}=\frac{|MA|}{|MN|}$

$\frac{x}{72.6}=\frac{46.2-14}{46.2}$

This implies that;

$\frac{x}{72.6}=\frac{32.2}{46.2}$

We multiply both sides by 72.6 to get

$\frac{x}{72.6}\times 72.6=\frac{32.2}{46.2}\times72.6$

$\Rightarrow x=50.6$

Hence the value of $x$ is 50.6 cm

Find the inverse function y=-5x+20

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

$y= \frac{-1}{5} x +4$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the inverse function of this excercise, isolating X and then changing the variables.

$y=-5x+20\\y-20=-5x\\\frac{y-20}{-5} =x\\$

$\frac{y}{-5}-\frac{20}{-5} = x\\\frac{-1}{5}y+\frac{20}{5} =x\\ \frac{-1}{5}y+4 =x$

And now we change the variables and we get the inverse function:

$y= \frac{-1}{5} x +4$

A system of two equations has no solution. One equation is -15x+y=18.

DerKrebs [107]

If you multiply the original equation by 3 you get -45x+3y=54, which is the exact same as A, therefore they have infinite solutions.
