Answer: x = 2 and z=78
Step-by-step explanation:
Opposite angles are non-adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines. Opposite angles are congruent (equal in measure). Z is Opposite to 78 angle, so z=78.
Adjacent angles add up to 180 degrees, and 78 and (5x + 92) are adyacents so:
5x + 92 + 78 = 180
5x + 170 = 180
5x = 180 - 170
5x = 10
x = 10/5
x = 2
Simplify brackets
10x - 4 = 8x + 14
Add 4 to both sides
10x = 8x + 14 + 4
Simplify 8x + 14 + 4 to 8x + 18
10x = 8x + 18
Subtract 8x from both sides
10x - 8x = 18
Simplify 10x - 8x to 2x
2x = 18
Divide both sides by 2
x = 18/2
Simplify 18/2 to 9
<u>x = 9</u>
If the CPI increased by 8.3%, therefore this means that
there was a fractional increase of 0.083. So amount increased is:
CPI increase = 141 * 0.083 = 11.703
Therefore the end of year CPI is the sum of the original and
the increase:
end of year CPI = 141 + 11.703 = 152.703
Answer:
152.703
Answer:
Mutley would start at 2 feet above sea level or +2, he would then travel 12 feet below sea level (-12) to then return to the surface of the ocean (0). The integers from least to greatest: -12, 0, 2. Visual:
-12(dive level) * * * * * * * * * * * 0(sea level) * 2(boat)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using positive and negative integers, we can determine Mutleys journey above, below and at the surface of the ocean. The surface of the ocean represents his 'origin' or starting point, which is 0. The boat is above the surface or +2. When Mutley dives below the surface, he is at a negative level of the ocean. Think of it in terms of a number line - negative numbers are to the left of 0 and positive numbers are to the right of 0. The further we go to the left on the number line, the lower our number. In this case, -12 would be furthest to the left, then 0, followed by 2.
Some examples of multiples of 2/5 are 4/10, 6/15, 8/20, 10/25, 12/30, and 14/35.
