Y is the variable in the equation.
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 8/17
Step-by-step explanation: The ratio for tangent is opposite/adjacent. The side opposite from Y has a length of 8, and the side next to it has a length of 15. These are the lengths of the legs of the triangle. To find the sine ratio, you need the hypotenuse.
The hypotenuse can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. 8^2=64 and 15^2=225. 225+64=289. The square root of 289 is 17. The hypotenuse has a length of 17.
The ratio for sine is opposite/hypotenuse. Take the value of the opposite from the tangent ratio (8) and the length of the hypotenuse (17) to get 8/17.
The answer is one because according to pemdas you must do the parentheses first then do the rest

Answer:
x = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
Segment NL is twice the length of midsegment WV.
2WV = NL
2(x+15) = x+21
2x +30 = x +21 . . . . simplify
x = -9 . . . . . . . . . . . . add -30-x
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
This value of x means the other segments are ...
MN = 12
WV = 6
NL = 12
