Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope subtract the points like the following:
(-27-(-7)/(-2-0)
= -20/-2
=10
So, the slope is 10.
So first I would say, what if all of them were dimes, how far away would it be from $14?
So 92 coins * 10 cents = $9.20
So it's 4.80 dollars away from 14 dollars.
So if we were to switch one to a quarter, it would increase by 0.15 cents.
So we want to see how many increases we need to reach 4.80 dollars more.
4.80/0.15 = 32
So there are 32 quarters and 60 dimes.
Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Extend line AB so that it intersects ray CE at point G. Then angles BGC and BAD are "alternate interior angles", hence congruent.
The angle at B is exterior to triangle BCG, and is equal to the sum of the interior angles at C and G:
138 = (376 -23x) +(x^2 -8x)
Subtracting 138 and collecting terms we have ...
x^2 -31x +238 = 0
For your calculator, a=1, b=-31, c=238.

<em>Additional comment</em>
You will find that the solutions to this are x = {14, 17}. You will also find that angle BCE will have corresponding values of 54° and -15°. That is, the solution x=17 is "extraneous." It is a solution to the equation, but not to the problem.
For x=14, the marked angles are A = 84°, C = 54°.
You can’t really know the y value unless you’re told that they’re both directly proportional. if so, then check out the pic
