Solution :

According to the question, first we need to assume a variable for the dryer then we need to add $79 with the variable for getting the washer, after which doing their total we can get the value

Let's assume The Dryer be x

Now,

The washer is $79 more than that of the dryer

So, the washer be x + $79

Total cost $1029

Getting variable's value

x + x + $79 = $1029

2x + $79 = $1029

2x = $1029 - $79

2x = $950

x = $950/2

x = $475

Now, Cost of dryer = x = $475

★ Therefore, the cost of Dryer is $475 ★

X = dryer
(X+79) = washer
X + (X+79) = $1029
Therefore, x+x+79= 1029 or 2x+79=1029
Solve for x

2x = 1029-79
2x = 950

2x/2 = 950/2

X= $475 The price of the dryer is $475

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

16. Two parallel lines are cut by transversal. Angles with measures $(6x+20)^{\circ}$ and $(x+100)^{\circ}$ are alternate exterior angles. By alternate exterior angles, the measures of alternate exterior angles are the same:

$6x+20=x+100\\ \\6x-x=100-20\\ \\5x=80\\ \\x=16$

Then

$(6x+20)^{\circ}=(6\cdot 16+20)^{\circ}=116^{\circ}\\ \\(x+100)^{\circ}=(16+100)^{\circ}=116^{\circ}$

17. Two parallel lines are cut by transversal. Angles with measures $(2x+12)^{\circ}$ and $(3x-22)^{\circ}$ are alternate interior angles. By alternate interior angles, the measures of alternate interior angles are the same:

$2x+12=3x-22\\ \\2x-3x=-22-12\\ \\-x=-34\\ \\x=34$

Then

$(2x+12)^{\circ}=(2\cdot 34+12)^{\circ}=80^{\circ}\\ \\(3x-22)^{\circ}=(3\cdot 34-22)^{\circ}=80^{\circ}$

18. Two parallel lines are cut by transversal. Angles with measures $(6x-7)^{\circ}$ and $(5x+10)^{\circ}$ are alternate exterior angles. By alternate interior angles, the measures of alternate exterior angles are the same:

$6x-7=5x+10\\ \\6x-5x=10+7\\ \\x=17$

Then

$(6x-7)^{\circ}=(6\cdot 17-7)^{\circ}=95^{\circ}\\ \\(5x+10)^{\circ}=(5\cdot 17+10)^{\circ}=95^{\circ}$

19. The diagram shows two complementary angles with measures $2x^{\circ}$ and $56^{\circ}$ . The measures of complementary angles add up to $90^{\circ},$ then

$2x+56=90\\ \\2x=90-56\\ \\2x=34\\ \\x=17$

Hence,

$2x^{\circ}=2\cdot 17^{\circ}=34^{\circ}$

Check:

$34^{\circ}+56^{\circ}=90^{\circ}$

20. Angles $\angle 1$ and $\angle 2$ are vertical angles. By vertical angles theorem, vertical angles are congruent, so

$m\angle 1=m\angle 2\\ \\5x+7=3x+15\\ \\5x-3x=15-7\\ \\2x=8\\ \\x=4$

Hence,

$m\angle 1=(5x+7)^{\circ}=(5\cdot 4+7)^{\circ}=27^{\circ}\\ \\m\angle 2=(3x+15)^{\circ}=(3\cdot 4+15)^{\circ}=27^{\circ}$

21. $\angle 5$ and $\angle 8$ are supplementary. The measures of supplementary angles add up to $180^{\circ},$ so

$m\angle 5+m\angle 8=180^{\circ}\\ \\3x-40+7x-120=180\\ \\10x-160=180\\ \\10x=180+160\\ \\10x=340\\ \\x=34$

Therefore,

$m\angle 5=(3x-40)^{\circ}=(3\cdot 34-40)^{\circ}=62^{\circ}\\ \\m\angle 8=(7x-120)^{\circ}=(7\cdot 34-120)^{\circ}=118^{\circ}\\ \\62^{\circ}+118^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$

BD and AC are directors of .0 identify each Arc as a minor Arc interior Arts Elementary art

Maru [420]

Given BD and AC is a diameter of the circle:

We need to find the following:

1. measure of the arc BA

So,

the measure of the minor arc BA = 44

The measure of the major arc BA = 360 - 44 = 316

2. the measure of the arc ACB = 360 - 44 = 316

3. The arc BCD is a semicircle of the circle

So, the measure of the arc BCD = 180

Did I do this right? If not please explain!

andrew11 [14]

Yep! Good job, you did it correctly.
Your y-intercept is equal to the constant of the equation (y-int = -2). Your movement/direction (or rise over run) is equal to the variable. Since your variable is x (which can also be written as 1x) means you move up one and over one (rise over run). This is because 1/1 is equal to 1.
