Answer:

x = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

A line parallel to a side of a triangle and intersecting the other 2 sides, divides those sides proportionally, that is

\frac{8}{10} = \frac{6}{x} ( cross- multiply )

8x = 60 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = \frac{60}{8} = 7.5

What is the value of x and y?
crimeas [40]

Answer:

C. x = 8 , y = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

since this is an Isosceles triangle 5x = 40° and x = 8

The sum of interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180°

40° + 5x + 2y + 20 = 180° add like terms

5x + 2y = 120

40 + 2y = 120 ➡ 2y = 80 and y = 40

Which of the following functions are their own inverses? Select all that apply.
just olya [345]
A function is its own inverse if it is symmetrical about the line y=x. This is the case for functions t, y, w. Function d(x) = 1/x^2 is symmetrical about the line x=0, but is not symmetrical about the line y=x.

The appropriate choices are ...
  a. t(p) = p
  b. y(j) = -1/j
  c. w(y) = -2/y
