If m∠CED = 56° and m∠AEB = (7x – 8)° then what is m∠BEC?

Mathematics

Using the definition of angles on a straight line, the measure of angle BEC is: 62°.

<h3>What are Angles on a Straight Line?</h3>

Angles that lie on a straight line add up to 180 degrees.

Thus, given that EB bisects ∠AEC, therefore:

m∠BEC = 1/2(180 - m∠CED)

Plug in the values

m∠BEC = 1/2(180 - 56)

m∠BEC = 1/2(124)

m∠BEC = 62°

Thus, using the definition of angles on a straight line, the measure of angle BEC is: 62°.

One large box of birdseed can feed half a dozen parrots for 15 days. For how many days can this same large box of birdseed feed
iren [92.7K]
Box = b
Parrots = p
b/p = number of days it can support the parrots
Half a dozen = 6 (A dozen is 12)
1/6 = 15
To work out the percentage of '6' '5' is, use the equation
(5/6)*100 = 83.333....
Meaning that with one less bird, the box will support the birds for 16.666... (100 - 18.333...) longer
(15/100)*116.666... = 17.4999....
The box will sustain the parrots for 17.5 days

Problem Page A jet travels 3310 miles against a jetstream in 5 hours and 3810 miles with the jetstream in the same amount of tim
Nitella [24]

Answer:

  • jet in still air: 712 mi/h
  • jetstream rate: 50 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between speed, time, and distance is ...

  speed = distance/time

Against the wind, the speed is ...

  (3310 mi)/(5 h) = 662 mi/h

With the wind, the speed is ...

  (3810 mi)/(5 h) = 762 mi/h

The jet stream adds to the speed in one direction, and subtracts in the other direction, so the difference in travel speeds is twice the speed of the jet stream:

  (762 mi/h -662 mi/h)/2 = jet stream speed = 50 mi/h

__

The speed of the plane is the average of the two speeds, or the sum of jet stream speed and the lower speed, or the difference of the higher speed and the jet stream speed. Any of these calculations will give the plane's speed in still air:

  (762+662)/2 = 662 +50 = 762 -50 = 712 . . . mi/h

Landon is standing in a hole that is 5.1 ft deep. He throws a rock, and it goes up into the air, out of the hole, and then lands
kati45 [8]
This describes a parabolic path that starts at x=0 on a value of y = -5.1.  That's when the rock is below ground in the hole.  To find the answer we need to know the second x axis crossing.  The first is when it is rising and reaches ground level, the second is after it peaks and falls back to the ground and lands. Using the quadratic formula I get the two zeros of this function to be about
x= 15.29, and 66.71.  The rock then lands 66.71 feet from him horizontally.
