Answer:

x=12 and y=31

Step-by-step explanation:

First, ( 5x - 7 ) and ( 3x + 17 ) are alternate interior angles, which means they are congruent, or equal:

5x - 7 = 3x + 17

Add 7 to each side:

5x = 3x + 24

Subtract 3x from both sides:

2x = 24

Divide each side by 2:

x = 12

Now we can see that ( 5x - 7 ) and ( 4y + 3 ) are supplementary angles, which means they will add up to 180 degrees:

5x - 7 + 4y + 3 = 180

Substitute 12 in for x to solve for y:

5 ( 12 ) - 7 + 4y + 3 = 180

60 - 7 + 4y + 3 = 180

combine like terms:

( 60 + ( -7 ) + 3 ) + 4y = 180

56 + 4y = 180

Subtract 56 from each side:

4y = 124

Divide each side by 4:

y = 31

You leave home and walk 3 blocks east, then 4 blocks north. How far are you from<br><br>home?
lara31 [8.8K]
I believe the answer would 5 blocks

If you go 3 blocks East and 4 north, they are like the straight sides of a triangle, so to find the diagonal distance, or the shortest distance, you would find the diagonal side of a triangle it is
A squared + B squared = C squared

So 3x3 = 9
And 4x4 = 16
16+9=25
And the square root of 25 is 5

Please correct me if I am wrong and have a good day

A town has a population of 2000 and grows at 4.5% every year. What will be the
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

3544

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem of compound growth. The formula is

F=P(1+r)^t

Where F is the value in the future (in this case, the population after 13 years)

P is the intial amount (here, the initial population of 2000, so P = 2000)

r is the rate of growth (here, it is 4.5%, in decimal, 0.045)

t is the time frame (here, it is 13 years, so t = 13)

<em>we can plug the numbers into the formula and solve for F:</em>

<em>F=P(1+r)^t\\F=2000(1+0.045)^{13}\\F=2000(1.045)^{13}\\F=3544.4</em>

<em>rounded to the nearest whole number, the </em><em>population after 13 years would be 3544</em>
