Find the degree measure of each angle in the triangle.
Answer:
x = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180 degrees
3x + 7 + 5x + x + 2 = 180 add like terms
9x + 9 = 180 subtract 9 from both sides
9x = 171 divide both sides by 9
x = 19 replace x with 19 in expressions to find the angle measures

Mathew goes to the store and gets 10 bananas, which he expects to be 4.1 pounds, however it turned out the actual weight was 3.9 pounds. What was the percent error of the measurement, to the neartest tenth of a percent?
So first you must take the 2 values you need out, which would be 4.1 pounds (the expected value) and 3.9 pounds (the actual value).
You then must set up the equation which is (|X-Y|)/Y.
X is the actual value, which would be 3.9 pounds and Y is the expected value, which would be 4.1.
You then plugin the numbers so you get (|3.9-4.1|) / 4.1.
Then follow PEMDAS, which would be the parantheses, so it would be |-0.2| / 4.1.
The absolute value of -0.2 is 0.2, since the absolute value makes it positive, no matter if it was already negative or positive.
You are then left with 0.2 / 4.1, which you then do the math for, with it equaling 0.048780.
You then do 0.048780 x 100%, to get the percent, which would be 4.8780%, however you would just need to round to the tenth of a percent, so it would be 4.9%. Hope this extra problem helps you understand the topic more! :}

Solve the rational equation x over 5 equals x squared over quantity 4x plus 2 and check for extraneous solutions.
x = 0; x = −2 is an extraneous solution
x = 2; x = 0 is an extraneous solution
x = 0 and x = 2
x = 0 and x = −2
Answer:
x=0 and x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{x}{5} = \frac{x^{2}}{4x+2}[/tex]
4x+2 can't equal 0, is 4x+2=0, then x=-1/2, none of the answers are -1/2 so none are extraneous

Mr Miller is having a party. he needs to rent some tables for his guest. he will rent 1 table for every 8 guests. Each table costs $4.50 to rent. If Mr.Miller will have 72 guests at his party, how much will it cost to rent the tables for his party?
A. $13.50
B.$16.00
C.$36.00
D.$40.50
Answer:
D.) $40.50
Step-by-step explanation:
If he is having 72 guests over, then he'll need nine tables.
(72 guests divided by eight guests, [each table] equals the need for nine tables)
If each table is $4.50 and he needs nine tables then we shall multiply nine by 4.50
9 x 4.50 = 40.50
$40.50

A fishing pond loses an average
2/3 inches of water each week.
Find the total change in the water
level of the pond after 5 weeks.
Answer as an improper fraction = 10/3 inches
Answer as a mixed number = 3 & 1/3 inches
=============================================================
Explanation:
Multiply the two given values to get (2/3)*5 = (2/3)*(5/1) = 10/3
Optionally, you can convert that to a mixed number
10/3 = (9+1)/3 = (9/3) + (1/3) = 9 + (1/3) = 3 & 1/3
The perimeter of quadrilateral PQRS is 42 centimeters. The quadrilateral is reflected across
QR
and then translated 6 centimeters to the left and 2 centimeters down. What is the perimeter of the resulting quadrilateral?
Answer:
it’s still 42 centimeters :3
Step-by-step explanation:
this is kind of a trick question. These are transformations that don’t change the shape‘s size such as rotations and translations. Dialations change the shapes size but because in this problem it’s on reflections and translations, you can easily say that the perimeter is still 42 centimeters.
hope this helped :3

Write an equation for each translation of y = |x|.
16.5 units right
A. y = | x | + 16.5
B. y = | x | – 16.5
C. y = | x + 16.5 |
D. y = | x – 16.5 |
Answer:
D. y = | x – 16.5 |
Step-by-step explanation:
If you want to write an equation for an absolute value function this is the parent function y=a|x-h|+k.
In order to write an equation that is 16.5 units right you would do this:
y=|x-16.5|
If you are moving units left the number -16.5 would become 16.5
Remember when you are moving that the number inside is always the opposite sign of where you are moving
Here is the answer:
y=|x-16.5|
Hope This Helps!
...............................................................................................................................................
Just subtract 16.5 to the x , in parenthesis, to the existing equation.
For example,
if u r given y= x +3 --> y=(x-16.5)+3
jenifer solved 27 problems which is 3/11 of all the problems in her homework. how many problems are in her hommework
Answer:
Her homework has 99 problems
Step-by-step explanation:
27÷3=9
9=1/11
11×9=99
now, if we take into account that a WHOLE is always one, and we can partition it in many ways, say 295/295 = 1, or 313/313 = 1, so the whole amount of homework is 1 fraction wise, thus
[tex]\begin{array}{ccll}amount&fraction\\\cline{1-2}27&\frac{3}{11}\\x&1\end{array}\implies \cfrac{27}{x}=\cfrac{\frac{3}{11}}{~~1~~}\implies \cfrac{27}{x}=\cfrac{3}{11}\implies 27\cdot 11=x\cdot 3\\\\\\297=3x\implies \cfrac{297}{3}=x\implies \boxed{99=x}[/tex]
What causes the phases of the moon? (Select two.)
The Moon changes shape as it moves around Earth.
The Moon's position relative to Earth results in phases.
Earth casts a shadow on the Moon.
The Moon is illuminated on one side by the Sun.
The amount of Moon we see changes over the month — lunar phases — because the Moon orbits Earth and Earth orbits the Sun. Everything is moving. During a lunar eclipse, Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, blocking the sunlight falling on the Moon.
Answer:
Both 'The Moon is illuminated on one side by the Sun' and 'The Moon's position relative to Earth results in phases.'
Step-by-step explanation:
The Moon has phases because of its position relative to Earth, and also because it is only illuminated on one side by the Sun. As it rotates, some parts of the moon reflects the Sun's light, so it looks as if it's changing shape. The other parts that are blacked out is because it is not reflecting the Sun's light, not because of the Earth.

Answer:

A. 148
B. 144
C. 20
D. 16
We must follow "PEMDAS" order of operations rules. Anything inside parentheses must be done first, followed by exponentiation, multiplication and division, and finally additionl and subtraction.
1/2(13-5)+(4+8)^2 has three sets of parentheses enclosing mathematical expressions: (1/2), (13 - 5) and (4 + 8). These evaluate to:
1/2, 8, 12
and so we now have (1/2)(8) + (12)^2
Exponentiation is next. We get: (1/2)(8) + 144
Next is multiplication: 4 + 144
Last is addition: 148
Answer A is correct: 148
8 x 9+4^2-(63/7)
is evaluated in the same way:
8 x 9+4^2-(9), followed by exponentiation:
8*9 + 16 - 9, followed by multiplication:
72 + 16 - 9 = 79 (Answer C)
Three siblings are each 3 years apart. If the total number of years between them is 90 years, how old is the oldest sibling
Answer:
33 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
x = youngest sibling
y = oldest sibling
x + (x + 3) + (x + 3 + 3) = 90
3x + 9 = 90
3x = 81
x = 27
y = 27 + 3 + 3 = 33
PLS WILL MARK BRAINLIEST DUE TODAY!!!!! Noya needs to determine the number of books that will fit into a box. If the box has a length of 18 inches and each book is StartFraction 2 Over 9 EndFraction of an inch thick, which expression can be used to determine the number of books that will fit into the box?
18 StartFraction 2 Over 9 EndFraction
18 times StartFraction 2 Over 9 EndFraction
StartFraction 2 Over 9 EndFraction divided by 18
StartFraction 9 Over 2 EndFraction divided by 18
Answer:
18 divided by 2/9, or 18/(2/9) (Is this what the first option was meant to say?)
Step-by-step explanation:
18 inches is the amount of space that needs to be filled, or divided up into sections to see how many things can fit.
2/9 is the width of the thing that you need to see how many fit, meaning it's the thing you're dividing by.
Combined, this means your expression is 18 divided by 2/9, or 18/(2/9). I think this is what your first option was meant to say, because if it is what it says, then the first and second option would be the exact same wrong thing.
You DON'T multiply, because if you think about easy numbers, an inch thick book should have 18 fit, and a half-inch thick book should have double that fit. As you get a smaller book, the number that fit increase, which can't happen with multiplication.
You also don't start with 2/9 because that's the width of the book. You're not trying to see how many boxes can fit into each book; that'd be ridiculous.
Answer:
It's A.
Step-by-step explanation:
A parabola can be drawn given a focus of (−5,3) and a directrix of
y=1. Write the equation of the parabola in any form.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 1 is a horizontal line
Vertex is halfway between the directrix and focus on a vertical line through x = (-5, 3).
(1 + 3)/2 = (-5, 2)
The shortest distance from the directrix to the focus is 3 - 1 = 2 units
so points (-5 - 2, 3) = (-7, 3) and (-5 + 2, 3) = (-3, 3) are on the parabola.
The vertex form of a parabola is
y = a(x - h)² + k
y = a(x - (-5))² + 2
y = a(x + 5)² + 2
plugging in one of the other known points
3 = a(-7 + 5)² + 2 or 3 = a(-3 + 5)² + 2
1 = a(-2)² 1 = a(2)²
a = 1/4 a = 1/4
y = ¼(x + 5)² + 2
to find the standard form, expand the vertex form
y = ¼(x² + 10x + 25) + 2
y = 0.25x² + 2.5x + 6.25 + 2
y = 0.25x² + 2.5x + 8.25
or
4y = x² + 10x + 33
