Solve for z in the figure below.

Answers

Answer:

z = 54

Step-by-step explanation:

x° = 45° (vertical angles)

5y° + 45° = 180° (Linear pair angles)

-> 5y° = 180° - 45°

-> 5y° = 135°

-> y° = 135°/5

-> y° = 27°

Next, find the measures of the angles of the triangle.

x° + 3y° + z° = 180° (By interior angle sum theorem of a triangle)

-> 45° + 3(27°) + z° = 180°

-> 45° + 81° + z° = 180°

->126° + z° = 180°

-> z° = 180° - 126°

-> z° = 54°

-> z = 54

Answer:

5/12 (corrected)

Convert with lowest common denominator, 12(find by multiplying)

1/3 = 4/12

1/4 = 3/12

Add the fraction's numerators

4 + 3 = 7

Subtract by 1 whole

7/12 - 12/12 = 5/12

Thus, your answer is 5/12

Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

to give the fractions the same denominator, find their gcm

3 * 4 = 12

therefore multiply 1/3 by 4/4 to get 4/12

multiply 1/4 by 3/3 to get 3/12

3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12

to find the remainder subtract

12/12 - 7/12 = 5/12

your answer is 5/12

Answers

Using the probability concept, it is found that the number of desired outcomes that Taylor should use in her calculation is given by:

a. 3

What is a probability?

A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, Taylor needs a number greater than 3, which for the dice are 4, 5 and 6, that is, 3 desired outcomes, hence option A is correct.

What is AAA similarity ?

The Angle-Angle-Angle (AAA) criterion for the similarity of triangles states that “If in two triangles, corresponding angles are equal, then their corresponding sides are in the same ratio (or proportion) and hence the two triangles are similar”.

What are corresponding angles?

Any pair of angles each of which is on the same side of one of two lines cut by a transversal and on the same side of the transversal are called corresponding angles and they are always equal.

According to the given question.

A, B and C lie on the straight line segment. and A, E, and D are also lie in the straight line segment.

Also, BE = 1.75m, CD = 7m and BC = 1.5m

Now, in ΔAEB and ΔADC

EB is parallel to BC

So,

∠AEB ≅ ∠ADC   (corresponding angles)

∠ABE ≅ ∠ACD   (corresponding angles)

∠EAB ≅ ∠DAC    (common angle to the both triangle)

Hence, by AAA Similarity rule

ΔAEB is similar to ΔADC

Therefore,

[tex]\frac{AE}{AD} =\frac{BE}{CD} =\frac{AB}{AC}[/tex]         (sides of the similar triangles are in proportion)

So,

[tex]\frac{BE}{CD} =\frac{AB}{AC} \\\implies \frac{AB}{AC} =\frac{1.75}{7} ....(i)[/tex]

Now, AC = AB + BC   (as, A, B, and C lie on a straight line)

[tex]\implies \frac{AB}{AB+BC} =\frac{1.75}{7}[/tex]       (from (i))

[tex]\implies \frac{AB}{AB+1.5} =\frac{1.75}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 7AB = 1.75AB + 1.75(1.5)[/tex]

[tex]\implies 7AB -1.75AB = 2.625[/tex]

[tex]\implies 5.25AB = 2.625[/tex]

[tex]\implies AB = \frac{2.625}{5.25} = 0.5[/tex]

Hence, the value of AB id 0.5 unit.

the radius of the bigger circle is 9cm and the area of the shaded region is twice that of the smaller circle then how long is the radius of the smaller circle ?​

Answers

Answer:

the radius of the smaller circle = 3√3.

Step-by-step explanation:

let C' be the bigger circle

and C be the smaller circle and r its radius.

Area(C') = π × (9² -  r²)

Area(C) = π × r²

Area(shaded region) = area(C') - area(C)

                                  = π × (9² -  r²)

the statement “the area of the shaded region is twice that of the smaller circle ” means  π × (9² -  r²) = 2 × π × r²

Now, let’s solve the equation:

π × (9² -  r²) = 2 × π × r²

⇔ π × (9² -  r² - 2r²) = 0

⇔ π × (81 -  3r²) = 0

⇔ 81 -  3r² = 0

⇔ 81 = 3r²

⇔ r² = 27

⇔ r = √27

⇔ r = 3√3

Answer:

6.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of bigger circle = π(9)² = 81π cm²

Area of smaller circle = π(9)²/2 = 81π/2 = 40.5πcm²

Area scale factor = (Linear Scale factor)²

81π/40.5π = 9²/x² {cancel the π}

81/40.5 = 81/x² (cross multiplication)

81x² = 40.5 × 81

√x² = √40.5 (square root both sides)

x = 6.32

Quinn mailed four postcards that each cost $0. 25, five letters that each cost $0. 44, two large envelopes that each cost $0. 80, and one small package for $5. 10. Which cost on the list of mailing fees on Quinn’s receipt would skew the mean? the cost of a postcard the cost of a letter the cost of a large envelope the cost of the small package.

Answers

Answer:

The cost of the small package because...

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 1 postcards = $0.25

Cost of 4 postcards = 0.25 x 4 = 1

Cost of 1 letter = $0.44

Cost of 5 letters = 0.44 x 5 = 2.2

Cost of 1 large envelope = $0.80

Cost of 2 large envelopes = 0.80 x 2 - 1.6

Cost of 1 small package =$5.10

Since the cost of small package is highest

So, It will increase the mean

So,  the cost of the small package will skew the mean

Answers

Answer:

0.98 $/cup

Step-by-step explanation:

The final answer asks for price/cup, as "per" means "divided by".

So, our final units will be in $/cup.

We are given that for every 2 gallons, it will cost $31.36.

In order to get from gallons to cups, we need to convert units.

In 1 gallon, there are 16 cups.

So, our conversion factor will be 16 cups/1 gallon.

[tex]\frac{31.36}{2} *\frac{1}{16} \\\\= 0.98[/tex]$/cup

- With these types of problems, it makes it much easier if you just figure out what units you need in the final answer, and then use conversions and dimensional analysis to get the answer

Remark

Since this is a multiple choice question, you need not worry excessively about solving the equation that sin(4x) and Cos(3x + 13) produce. It can be done, but you will spend a lot time and drink a lot of coffee doing it.

C

The wording of this problem is not the best. 13 is not in any way considered.

4x = 4*13 = 523x + 13 = 52.

Not only are the two angles equal (52) but they add to 104 which is greater than 90.

11 is the next one you should look at

4*11 = 44

3*11 + 13 = 46

That gives you the right answer, but the question you have to ask yourself is are you answering the question? I don't think you are. The question is the number of degrees in the smaller angle. I think that means that you have already substituted a value for x.

I think the answer is C.
