Answer:

$x=7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

$-2^2(-5x+10)=100$

Solve -2^2:

$-4(-5x+10)=100$

Divide both sides by -4:

$\displaystyle \frac{ -4(-5x+10)}{-4}=\frac{100}{-4} \\\\-5x+10=-25$

Subtract 10 from both sides:

$-5x+10-10=-25-10\\-5x=-35$

Divide both sides by -5:

$\displaystyle \frac{-5x}{-5} = \frac{-35}{-5} \\\\x=7$

Therefore, x = 7.

I hope this helps!

If Wendell creates a scale drawing using the scale 1 inch to 10 feet, what will the dimensions of the deck in the scale drawing

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The dimensions on the scale drawing would be 1 inch by 0.8 inches.

The scale is 1 in: 10 ft; since the actual width of the deck is 10 ft, then it will be 1 inch on the scale. To find the width:

1/10 = x/8

Cross multiply:

1*8 = 10*x

8 = 10x

Divide both sides by 10:

8/10 = 10x/10

0.8 = x

The width on the scale drawing will be 0.8 inches.

PLZ help me super really really fast

maria [59]

Answer:

A. 3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The smallest face has the sides 4 cm and 8 cm. If the water is 4 cm from its top, then the height of the water is $16-4=12$ cm and the volume of the water is

$V_{water}=4\cdot 8\cdot 12=384\ cm^3$

The largest face has the sides 8 cm and 16 cm. If the container is placed on its largest face, then the volume of the water is

$V_{water}=8\cdot 16\cdot h \ cm^3,$

where h is the height of the water.

Equate volumes of the water:

$8\cdot 16\cdot h=384\\ \\h=\dfrac{384}{8\cdot 16}=3\ cm$

Therefore, the water is 3 cm from the bottom.

Find the measure of each of the angles. Don’t forget to label your answer

user100 [1]

Answer:

$a=125^o$

$b=55^o$

$c=55^o$

$d=55^o$

$e=125^o$

$f=55^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the value of x

we know that

$(2x+25)^o=(x+75)^o$ ----> by alternate interior angles

solve for x

Group terms

$2x-x=75-25$

$x=50$

step 2

Find the measure of angle a

we know that

$a=(x+75)^o$ ----> by vertical angles

substitute the value of x

$a=(50+75)=125^o$

step 3

Find the measure of angle b

we know that

$a+b=180^o$ ----> by supplementary angles (form a linear pair)

we have

$a=125^o$

substitute

$125^o+b=180^o$

$b=180^o-125^o=55^o$

step 4

Find the measure of angle c

we know that

$c=b$ ----> by vertical angles

we have

$b=55^o$

therefore

$c=55^o$

step 5

Find the measure of angle d

we know that

$d=b$ ----> by corresponding angles

we have

$b=55^o$

therefore

$d=55^o$

step 6

Find the measure of angle e

we know that

$e=a$ ----> by alternate exterior angles

we have

$a=125^o$

therefore

$e=125^o$

step 7

Find the measure of angle f

we know that

$f=d$ ----> by vertical angles

we have

$d=55^o$

therefore

$f=55^o$
