Answer:
15.
x = 40/9 = 4 4/9
z = 24/5 = 4 4/5
17.
x = 50
y ≈ 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
15. Corresponding segments are proportional:
top right side / whole right side = x / 8
5/(5+4) = x/8
x = 8(5/9) = 40/9
x = 4 4/9
__
right side bottom / right side top = z / 6
z = 6(4/5) = 24/5
z = 4 4/5
____
17. The acute angles are complementary:
x = 90 -40 = 50
__
From the Pythagorean theorem:
y = √(15² -9.6²) = √132.84
y ≈ 11.5
I'm assuming your function is f(x) = -9^(x+1)
So we just have to plug in and see if the function is true.
1) -9^(0+1) = -9^1 = -9
YES
2) -9^(1+1) = -9^2 = -81
NO
3) -9^(-1+1) = -9^0 = -1
YES
The answer to your question is -304
16w-15w =.
1w=20
1/1=20/1
W=20
