Answer:

x= 38

y= 71

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle shown in the figure is an isosceles triangle, a triangle having two sides equal.

The two sides marked with a "dash" are said to be equal.

If we label off the triangle as ABC with AD being the extended length (containing 108°).

We'll get,

AB = AC

*Property*

"If two sides of a triangle are equal their corresponding base angles are equal too."

=> ∠BAC = ∠BCA . . . . (¡)

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

From the figure, ∠BCA is equal to y.

*Property*

"Two angles on a straight line sum up to 180°"

∠BAC can be found out by subtracting 109° from the straight angle (180°).

=> ∠BAC = 180 - 109

=> ∠BAC = 71°

Substituting these values in eqn. (¡):

71 = y

Hence, the value of y is 71°

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

*Property*

"The exterior angle(angle on the extended side) of a triangle is equal to the sum of it's interior opposite angles."

Here,

Interior angles = x and y (= 71)
Exterior Angle = 109°

=> 109 = x + 71

=> 109 - 71 = x

=> x = 38°

Hence, the value of x is 38°.

Leto [7]

Answer:

The number of different computer systems possible is 1440.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each computer, there are 10 options of monitor.

For each monitor, there are 8 printers.

For each printer, there are 2 scanners.

There are 9 computers.

Determine the number of different computer systems possible.

9*10*8*2 = 1440

Name and describe the methods for determining a marketing budget.

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: There are several ways in which we can determine our marketing budget. Some of these are given below:

1. Percentage of revenues:

Under this method we usually take a fixed percentage of our revenues and further allocating this amount for marketing. We will choose the percentage that works best for us.

2. Percentage of net sales:

This method determines our marketing budget as a fraction of our net sales. This method will take a lot of trial and error to find the percentage that works well for our company.

3. Industry specific:

Nowadays, industries have specific projections as to the amount they will need to spend on marketing . The best way to get these numbers is to find a firm that represents our industry and ask them to provide us with averages. We can then refine the actual costs.

4. Objective/task oriented 

This is model that works by setting out goals, planning out the tasks and then estimating the cost for all of these tasks. It works greatly for firms who have a immense knowledge about measurements and information of their business processes.

Find the surface area of the prism 4cm 5cm 12cm 13cm

inysia [295]

The answer would depend on where the numbers you gave us are on the pyramid. but here is the formula to find the surface area of a prism;
surface area= base x height + 2 x length x side + length x base
i will do the equation for you if you specify which numbers are the base, length, side, and height. or if you attach a photo.
