1. In the figure below ABC∡=153°, ABD∢=(5x+5)°, and DBC∢=(3x+12)°. Find the measure of ABD∢ and DBC∢. Show all work
1 answer:
By angle addition postulate,
m(∠ABD) + m(∠DBC) = m(∠ABC)
Now substitute the values of each angle,
(5x + 5)° + (3x + 12)° = 153°
Combine like terms of the expression,
(5x + 3x) + (5 + 12) = 153
8x + 17 = 153
8x = 153 - 17
x =
x = 17
Substitute the value of 'x' to get the measure of each angle,
m(∠ABD) = (5x + 5)
= 5(17) + 5
= 90°
m(∠DBC) = (3x + 12)
= 3(17) + 12
= 63°

Answer:
7x-48
Step-by-step explanation:
we want our equation to look something like this
y=mx+b
let's start by solving for m (the slope) using the slope formula
Which means, so far, our equation looks like this
y=7x+b
now we just need to solve for B
We can do this by plugging in a set of coordinates
-6=7*6+b
-6=42+b
-48=b
which means our equation is
7x-48
Answer:
The general rule is
Step-by-step explanation:
Arithmetic sequence:
In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same, and this difference is called common difference.
The general rule of an arithmetic sequence is given by:
In which is the first term and d is the common difference.
We can also find the nth term as a function of a term m, using:
a3 = -12 and a8 = -37
First we find the common difference. So
So
Finding the first term:
Since
So the general rule is:
