Find an angle with a positive measure and an angle with a negative measure that is coterminal with each angle 210° and - 120°

Answers

Answer:

For angle of 210°, coterminal angles are; 570° and -150°.

For angle of -120°, coterminal angles are; 240° and -480°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are asked to angle find angle that's coterminal, we will add/ subtract 360° from each angle respectively to get that because coterminal angles are defined as those that share the same terminal side. Thus;

For angle of 210°, coterminal angles are;

>> 210° + 360° = 570°

>> 210° - 360° = - 150°

For angle of -120°, coterminal angles are;

>> - 120° + 360° = 240°

>> - 120° - 360° = - 480°

on a restaurant menu you can have three course meal by selecting one for me to course they're five appetizers for main dishes through desserts to choose from how many Possible full meals are there

Answers

Question isn't well formatted :

on a restaurant menu you can have three course meal by selecting one from each meal course they're five appetizers four main dishes and two desserts to choose from how many Possible full meals are there?

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve questions of this nature, we apply combination.

nCr = n! ÷ (n - r)!r!

For the 3 course meal :

Selection procedure ;

Select 1 appetizer from 5 ; and 1 main dish from four and 1 dessert from 2

This gives :

5C1 * 4C1 * 2C1

5C1 = 5! ÷ (5-1)!1! = 5

4C1 = 4! ÷ (4-1)!1! = 4

2C1 = 2! ÷ (2-1)!1! = 2

Hence, we have

5 * 4 * 2 = 40 different meals

If 1/8 of my money is $80. What is 50 % of my money

Answers

Answer:

$320

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to solve this problem is to undo the operations, Find the total amount of money, and then find half of the amount. Since (80) is ([tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]) the total amount of money, one has to multiply (80) by (8) to find the total amount of money.

(80) * (8)

= 640

Now one is asked to find (50%) of the money. It is known that (50%) is equivalent to (0.5), therefore multiply (640) by (0.5) to find how much (50%) of the money is.

(640) * (0.5)

= 320

Answers

Answer:

1.) x=-7

2.) x= -8

3.) x=13

4.) x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

ur lucky idc

1. 4x = -28

By dividing both sides of this equation by 4, we see that x = -7.

2. x - (-6) = -2

Note that x - (-6) is equal to x + 6. To solve the equation x + 6 = -2, subtract 6 from both sides to see that x = -8.

3. -x + 4 = -9

First, subtract 4 from both sides to get that -x = -13. Then, multiply both sides by -1 to see that x = 13.

4. -3x + 7 = 1

First, subtract 7 from both sides to get that -3x = -6. Then, divide both sides by -3 to see that x = 2.

I need help math work (geometry) :P​

Answers

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

For the triangles to be similar then the ratios of corresponding sides would be equal, that is

[tex]\frac{DF}{XZ}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{DE}{XY}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{3(x-1)}{7.5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{10}{x-1}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

3(x - 1)² = 75 ( divide both sides by 3 )

(x - 1)² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 1 = ± [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex] = ± 5 ( add 1 to both sides )

x = 1 ± 5 , then

x = 1 + 5 = 6 or x = 1 - 5 = - 4

But x > 0 then x = 6

For the triangle to be similar then x = 6

THE CORRECT ANSWER is 25 Cm³

Explanation:

Let's consider the vertical block first, having height 8cm, length 1 cm, width 2cm.

Hence the volume of that block = l.w.h = 8×2×1 = 16 cm³

Coming to the horizontal block, having height 3cm, width 3cm, & length 1 cm.

Hence the volume of that block will be = 3×3×1 = 9 cm²

The total volume of irregular figure = Volume of vertical block + horizontal block = 16+9 = 25 cm³

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope-intercept  form:   y = mx + b

by inspection ( just looking at the graph)  we can see that the line goes thur the +2 on the y axis.    so b=2   and we can also see that the line runs up hill so a positive slope and it's going up one for ever one over. So it has a positive 1 slope.

y = 1x + 2

y = x + 2

Y=mx+b is the slope-intercept
