Answer:

x = 18 , y = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle vertically opposite 4x - 7 is congruent to it and forms a same- side interior angle with 6x + 7.

Same- side interior angles sum to 180° , then

6x + 7 + 4x - 7 = 180 , that is

10x = 180 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = 18

Then

6x + 7 = 6(18) + 7 = 108 + 7 = 115

6x + 7 and 3y - 20 are vertically opposite angles and are congruent , so

3y - 20 = 115 ( add 20 to both sides )

3y = 135 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 45

If (x, 0) lies on the graph of y = logbx, then x =

Fittoniya [83]

We have the following expression:
y = logbx
We clear x of the expression.
We have then:
b ^ y = b ^ (logbx)
Rewriting:
x = b ^ y
Substituting we have:
x = b ^ 0
x = 1
Answer:
If (x, 0) lies on the graph of y = logbx, then:
x = 1

Answer:

Restating the question clearly:

Ben drinks tea at an incredible rate. He drinks 3 1/2 liters of tea every 2/3 of an hour. How much does he drink in one hour?

Answer:

He drinks $5\frac{1}{4}\ liters\$ in 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

$Rate\ of\ drinking\ =\ 3\frac{1}{2}\ liters\ per\ \frac{2}{3}\ of\ an\ hour\\$ $\therefore\ 3\frac{1}{2}\ liters\ is\ consumed\ in\ \frac{2}{3} \ hours\\\frac{7}{2} \ liters = \frac{2}{3} \ hours\\cross-multiplying\\7 \times 3\ liters = 2 \times 2\ hours\\21\ liters = 4\ hours\\4\ hours\ = 21\ liters\\\therefore\ for\ 1\ hour\\\frac{4}{4}\ hours = \frac{21}{4}\ liters\\1\ hour = 5.25\ liters\\5.25\ liters = 5\frac{1}{4}\ liters$
