Find The Value Of X,y And Z

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 95°

y = 40°

z = 95°

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 45° (Vertical angles)

y = 40° (corresponding angles)

z = 180° - (45° + 40°) (Interior angle sum theorem of a triangle)

-> z = 180° - 85°

-> z = 95°

x = z (vertical angles)

-> x = 95°

Answers

The Area of carpet for the given dimension is 72m².

What is Area of rectangle?

Area of rectangle is the region occupied by a rectangle within its four sides or boundaries. The area of a rectangle depends on its sides.

Let the width of the room w = x m

     and the length, L = 1.5x

Length of carpet + 6 = length of room

2(x-6)+6=1.5x

2x-12+6=1.5x

0.5x=6

  x = 6 / 0.5

  x = 12

length of room x = 12 m

width of room = 18 m

18-6 by 12-6    =    12 by 6 dimensions of carpet

Area of carpet = 12 X 6=72 m²

Thus, the Area of carpet for the given dimension is 72m².

Given the data from the question, the expressions that are equal to 10 are

To determine the expressions that are equal to 10⁵, we shall evaluate the options given from the question.

How to evaluate (10⁴)¹

Recall

(Aᵐ)ⁿ = Aᵐⁿ

Thus,

(10⁴)¹ = 10⁴

How toevaluate 10³ ⋅ 10²

Recall

Aᵐ ⋅ Aⁿ = Aᵐ⁺ⁿ

Thus,

10³ ⋅ 10² = 10³⁺²

10³ ⋅ 10² = 10⁵

How to evaluate 1 / 10⁵

Recall

1 / Aᵐ = A⁻ᵐ

Thus,

1 / 10⁵ = 10

How to evaluate (10³)²

Recall

(Aᵐ)ⁿ = Aᵐⁿ

Thus,

(10³)² = 10

How to evaluate 10 ⋅ 10 ⋅ 10 ⋅ 10 ⋅ 10

Sonam says that the 20th figure in this pattern has 400 small triangles. do you agree? explain your thinking. ​

Answers

Answer:

No. There should be 210 small triangles

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of small triangles in these figures forms a sequence

Fig         No Small Triangles
1             1
2            3  (1+2)
3            6  (1+2+3)

Jada is comparing membership costs for two gyms. What is the difference in membership costs after m months if she joins Be strong instead of Zippy Health Club?

Write an expression for each membership cost for m months and subtract them.

Answers

Answer: Difference in membership costs after m months = -($24.96m + $34.94)

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of Zippy health club = $49.95 + $19.95 per month

Cost of Be strong = $24.99 per month and $10 off the first month

Total cost after m months of Zippy health club = $49.95 + $19.95m

Total cost after m months of Be strong = $24.99 (m - 1) + $ 10

Difference in membership costs after m months ={ $24.99m - $24.99 + $10 ]-[$49.95m + $19.95}

=$(24.99 - 49.95) m -$14.99 - $19.95

= -$24.96m - $34.94

=-($24.96m + $34.94)

So Difference in membership costs after m months =-($24.96m + $34.94)

(d) Two alarm clocks are set to ring at intervals of 42 minutes and 56 minutes respectively. If the alarm clocks ring together at 0830, at what time will they next ring together again?​

Answers

Answer:

11:18

Step-by-step explanation:

the lowest common multiple [meaning the nearest possible time these clocks will be ringing at the same time] of 42 and 56 is 168

(56 x 3 = 168 ; 42 x 4 = 168)

So, in 168 minutes, the clock will ring together again.

Now, we need to add 168 minutes to 08:30

(168 can be made up of 2 hours and 48 minutes [120 + 48 = 168])

08:30 + 2 hours = 10:30

10:30 + 48 minutes = 11:18

So, at 11:18, these clocks will ring together again

A Ferris wheel completes 7 revolutions in 14 minutes. The radius of the Ferris wheel is 30 feet.


What is the linear velocity of the Ferris wheel in inches per second?


Enter your answer, rounded to the nearest tenth, in the box.

Answers

The linear velocity of the Ferris wheel in inches per second is 18.9 inches/second.

What is the speed of an object?

The speed of an object is the ratio of the total distance covered by the object and the total time taken by the object to complete that distance.

Here, the radius of the Ferris wheel is (r) = 30 feet.

The circumference of the wheel is

C= 2πr

C= 2 × π × 30 feet

C= 60π feet

Here, the Ferris wheel completes 7 revolutions.

Therefore, it covers the linear distance of

D= 7 × circumference of the wheel

D= 7 × 60π feet

D= 420π feet

Now, the Ferris wheel took 14 minutes to complete 420π feet.

Therefore, the speed of the wheel is

S= (420π/14) feet/minute

S= 30π feet/minute

S= (30π × 12)/60 inches/second

S= 6π inches/second

S= 18.9 inches/second

Therefore the linear velocity of the object will be 18.9 inches/second

Find the slope of the line that goes through (2, 8) and (5, 13).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is found by using the equation :

y2 - y 1 / x2 - x1

So all we have to do is plug in our values given.

To find which belongs with which variable (such as x2 or y1), we do the following:

We know that the coordinates of a point are represented by (x, y). So we must assign a number to each points number.

(2, 8) will be x1 and y1.

(5, 13) will be x2 and y2

Plug in the values :

13 - 8 = 5

5 - 2 = 3

5 / 3 = 1 (2/3)

So, the slope of the line is 1.66666667 or 1 and (2/3)s

Let’s suppose 100 such bacteria entered a person’s blood. How many hours will it take for the person to become sick? Arrange the steps in the right order to show how to find the number of hours it will take for the person to fall sick.

Answers

The steps arranged in the right order are:

45,000,000 = [tex]100(1 + 1.5)^{t}[/tex]

45,000,000 = [tex]100(2.5)^{t}[/tex]

450,000 = [tex](2.5)^{t}[/tex]

log 450,000 = log [tex](2.5)^{t}[/tex]

log 450,000 = log t (2.5)

[tex]\frac{log 450,000}{log 2.5} = t[/tex]

5.632 / 0.3979 = t

t = 14.21 hours

What are the correct steps?

The equation that can be used to represent the growth rate of the bacteria is an exponential equation. The form of exponential equations is:

FV = P(1 + r)^t

Where:

FV = future value of the bacteria PV = present population r = rate of increase t = number of hours

45,000,000 = 100( 2.5)^t

t = log 450,000 / log 2.5

What are inequalities?

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. Also, it helps us to compare the non-equal expressions so that an equation can be formed. It is mostly denoted by the symbol <, >, ≤, and ≥.

For the given inequality the solution can be found as,

When the value of x is negative,

Why do I always have to convince myself that I am capable of this?Okay, I can see the area where these guys must be stranded, so Ill get my gear together and be ready to go. This wind is unbelievable, but if Im heading into a storm, its certainly in my favor to have Thao as my pilot. Hes the best pilot Ive ever worked with, and he can keep a helicopter steady in a monsoon. I wonder whether Thao ever doubts himself or whether he questions his ability the way I do mine. Is that something I can ask someone who has a high-pressure occupation, or will he think Ive lost my edge?It looks like were going to circle around and wait for the most judicious opportunity for rescue. I know that Thao does not want to repeatedly attempt this approach; he wants to be confident that when he makes his descent, it is at the most favorable time to carry out the rescue. I can see exactly how these fishermen got stranded here, and it looks like they did everything right once they realized they were going to get stuck. That will make the rescue much easier.I shouldnt think of this as easy. I know what I need to do here, but I could lose one these men if just one thing goes wrong. Ill hear my petty officer whos here in the chopper through my earpiece, and hell be acting as a second pair of eyes alerting me about anything he thinks I do not see coming. While thats reassuring, its up to me to get those men into this helicopter.Here we go; Thao is making his descent. Im going to be in a perfect position as I leave the chopper, and I can visualize just how this is going to go. Every move will be deliberate and meticulous, just like that rescue from sophomore year. Im close enough to see the relief in the fishermens faces.
