Find the values of x, y, and z in the triangle to the right

Mathematics

chubhunter [2.5K]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 36 , y = 64 , z = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Exterior angle equals the sum of opposite interior angle.

3x +  8 = x +  z

3x - x - z = -8

2x  -  z = -8   ------------ (I)

z + 3x - 8 = 180 {linear pair}

3x + z = 180 + 8

3x + z = 188 --------------(II)

Add (I) and (II) and z will be eliminated and we can find the value of 'x'

(I)            2x - z = -8

(II)          <u> 3x + z = 188</u>   {Now add}

               5x      = 180

x = 180/5

x = 36

Plugin x = 36 in equation (II)

     3*36 +z = 188

        108 + z = 188

                z = 188- 108

z = 80

x + y + z = 180 ----------------(III)  {angle sum property of triangle}

36 + 80 +y = 180

       116 + y = 180

               y = 180 - 116

y = 64

Well, first off, let's find what is the slope of BC

\bf \begin{array}{lllll}&#10;&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\&#10;%   (a,b)&#10;B&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ -3}})\quad &#10;%   (c,d)&#10;C&({{ 10}}\quad ,&{{ 1}})&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;% slope  = m&#10;slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies &#10;\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{1-(-3)}{10-2}\implies \cfrac{1+3}{10-2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{4}{8}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}

now, a line perpendicular to that one, will have a negative reciprocal slope, thus

\bf \textit{perpendicular, negative-reciprocal slope for slope}\quad \cfrac{1}{2}\\\\&#10;slope=\cfrac{1}{{{ 2}}}\qquad negative\implies  -\cfrac{1}{{{ 2}}}\qquad reciprocal\implies - \cfrac{{{ 2}}}{1}\implies \boxed{-2}

now, we know the slope "m" of AB is -2 then, thus

\bf \begin{array}{lllll}&#10;&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\&#10;%   (a,b)&#10;A&({{ a}}\quad ,&{{ 3}})\quad &#10;%   (c,d)&#10;B&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ -3}})&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;% slope  = m&#10;slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies &#10;\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{-3-3}{2-a}=\boxed{-2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{-6}{2-a}=-2\implies -6=-4+2a\implies -2=2a\implies \cfrac{-2}{2}=a&#10;\\\\\\&#10;-1=a

An oblique cylinder has a radius of 8 inches and a volume of 1,024 cubic inches. Use Cavalieri’s Principle to calculate the heig
enot [183]
Remark
All Cavaliere's principle says is that a slanted cylinder (for example) has the same volume as a cylinder with perpendicular parallel lines that the cylinder is sitting on.

I little known or maybe not a well emphasized fact is that the base is the same all the way up the cylinder. The coin picture below shows that. The basic formula for a Cavaliere cylinder is the same as for an ordinary cylinder.

See picture below

Formula
V = B * H 

Sub and Solve
V = 1024
r = 8
p=3.14

V = pi*r^2 * h
1024 = 3.14*8^2 * h    combine the right side.
1024 = 3.14*64 *h       
1024 = 200.96 * h       divide by 200.96
1024/200.96 = h
You are only getting 5 inches.

None of your answers work.The conversion to meters is going to give you an even smaller number. If you add a comment, I'll come back and edit this question.

How many tissues should the kimberly clark corporation package of kleenex contain? researchers determined that 60 tissues is the
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For the null hypothesis,

µ = 60

For the alternative hypothesis,

h1: µ < 60

This is a left tailed test

Since the population standard deviation is not given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 100,

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 100 - 1 = 99

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 52

µ = population mean = 60

s = samples standard deviation = 22

t = (52 - 60)/(22/√100) = - 3.64

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes

p = 0.00023

We would reject the null hypothesis if α = 0.05 > 0.00023
