Answer:

x= 77

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle at 122 degrees is a linear pair with the isosceles triangle, meaning it makes 180 degrees.

180-122= 58 degrees

Since it is an isosceles triangle, the two angles at the bottom are both 58 degrees.

Let's use this info to find the degree at the top.

58+58= 116

There are 180 degrees in a triangle, so subtract 116 degrees we have so far to find the last angle.

180-116= 64 degrees

And since the angle at the top makes 90 degrees, we can subtract 64 degrees to find the smaller angle to the right of the 64 degree angle.

90-64= 26 degrees

And since a triangle has a total of 180 degrees, subtract the 26 degrees from 180.

180-26= 154 degrees.

And since it is an isosceles triangle, divide the remaining 154 degrees by 2 because they are both equal.

154/2= 77 degrees.

Your answer is 77 degrees.

Adding/Subtracting rational expressions

Leona [35]

6/(x-1)-5x/4
subtracting the above we put the fraction under the same denominator:
6/(x-1)-5x/4
multiplying the denominators we get:
4(x-1)
thus subtracting we get:
6/(x-1)-5x/4
=(4*6-5x(x-1))/[4(x-1)]
=[24-5x^2+5x]/(4x-4)
Answer:
(-5x^2+5x+24)/(4x-4)

9]
3/(x+7)+4/(x-8)
the common denominator is:
(x+7)*(x-8)=(x+7)(x-8)
thus adding the fractions we put them under the same denominator as follows:
[3(x-8)+4(x+7)]/[(x+7)(x-8)]
=[3x-24+4x+28]/[(x+7)(x-8)]
=(7x+4)/[(x+7)(x-8)]

its 76 degrees fahrenheit at the 6000-foot level of a mountain, and 49 degrees Fahrenheit at the 12000-foot level of the mountai

brilliants [131]

$T = \frac{-9}{2}x + 103$ is the linear equation to find the temperature T at an elevation x on the mountain, where x is in thousands of feet.

Solution:

The linear equation in slope intercept form is given as:

T = cx + k ------ (i)

Where "t" is the temperature at an elevation x

And x is in thousands of feet

Given that its 76 degrees fahrenheit at the 6000-foot level of a mountain

Given, when c = 6 thousand ft and $T = 76^{\circ}$ fahrenheit

This implies,

From (i)

76 = c(6) + k

76 = 6c + k

⇒ k = 76 - 6c ----- (ii)

Given that 49 degrees Fahrenheit at the 12000-foot level of the mountain

Given, when c = 12 thousand ft and $T = 49^{\circ}$ fahrenheit

This implies,

From (i)

49 = c(12) + k

49 = 12c + k

Substitute (ii) in above equation

49 = 12c + (76 - 6c)

49 = 12c + 76 - 6c

49 - 76 = 6c

6c = -27

$c = \frac{-9}{2}$

Substituting the value of c in (ii) we get

$k = 76 - 6( \frac{-9}{2})\\\\k = 76 + 27 = 103$

Substituting the value of c and k in (i)

$T = \frac{-9}{2}x + 103$

Where "x" is in thousands of feet

Thus the required linear equation is found

Anestetic [448]

512.50/125%=410

100% is the dealers cost

25% is the markup

$410 is the dealer's price before markup

410×25%=102.5. 410+102.5=512.5
