The x-value of the intersection point of the lines is ( d - b)/(a-c)

<h3>Intersection of lines</h3>

Given the equation of a line expressed as;

y = ax +b and;

y = cx + d.

Equating both lines, we will have:

  • ax + b = cx + d

Make x the subject of the formula:

ax - cx = d = b

x (a-c) = d - b

x = ( d - b)/(a-c)

Hence the x-value of the intersection point of the lines is ( d - b)/(a-c)

Answer:

150°

Step-by-step explanation:

We know each angle in a equilateral triangle is 60° and that of a rectangle is 90° . So ,

\implies \angle ABC = \angle DBC + \angle ABD \\\\\implies \angle ABC = 90^o + 60^o \\\\\implies \boxed{\boxed{ \angle ABC = 150^o }}

Estimate the area of Alberta in square miles. Show your reasoning
ella [17]

Answer:  About 278,250\ mi^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing figure is attached.

Notice in the first picture that Alberta has a complex shape.

You can calculate the area of a complex shape by decomposing it into polygons whose areas can be calculated easily.

Observe the second picture. Notice that it can be descompose into two polygons: A trapezoid and a rectangle.

The area of the trapezoid  can be calcualted with the formula:

A_t=\frac{h}{2}(B+b)

Where "h" is the height, "B" is the long base and "b" is short base.

And the area of the rectangle can be found with the formula:

 A_r=lw

Wkere "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width.

Then, the apprximate area of Alberta is:

A=\frac{h}{2}(B+b)+lw

Substituting vallues, you get:

A=(\frac{(410\ mi-180\ mi)}{2})(760\ mi+470\ mi)+(180\ mi)(760\ im)\\\\A=141,450\ mi^2+136,800\ mi^2\\\\A=278,250\ mi^2

Therefore, the area of of Alberta is about 278,250\ mi^2.
