Answer:
95°
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle 1 and 4 are opposite angles, thus equal, so:
3x+10 = 4x-15 =>
x = 25
Angle 1 and 4 are 85°
Angle 4 and angle 6 are called allied (or co-interior) angles, which are supplementary, i.e., angle 6 = 180 - angle 4, so angle 6 = 95°.
Angle 6 and 7 are again opposite, so angle 7 is 95° as well!
Nolan plots the y-intercept of a line at (0, 3) on the y-axis. He uses a slope of 2 to graph another point. He draws a line through the two points. Which equation represents Nolan’s line? y = 2x + 1 y = 2x + 3 y = 3x + 2 y = 3x + 5
Answer:
The answer is
y = 2x + 3Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a line is y = mx + c
Where m is the slope
c is the y intercept
From the question the y intercept is 3
and the slope is 2
Substituting the values into the above equation
We have
y = 2x + 3Hope this helps you
The equation of a line that passes through [tex](0,3)[/tex] and a slope [tex]2[/tex] is [tex]y=2x+3[/tex].
The equation of a line that passes through a point [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and slope [tex]m[/tex] is:

Here, the point is [tex](0,3)[/tex] and the [tex]slope[/tex] is [tex]2[/tex].
So, [tex]x_1=0, y_1=3[/tex] and [tex]m=2[/tex].
So, the equation of the line is

[tex](y-3)=2(x-0)[/tex]

Which equation correctly represents the line in slope-intercept form? A. y = -1/4x-6 B.y=1/4x-6 C.y=-4x+6 D.y=4x+6
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, - 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (8, - 4) ← 2 points on the line
m = [tex]\frac{-4+6}{8-0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{8}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
The line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 6 ) ⇒ c = - 6
y = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x - 6 → B
A lead ball weighs 326 grams. Find the radius of the ball to the nearest tenth of a
centimeter.
Answer:
1.9cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The density d of a material is related to its mass m and volume V as follows;
d = [tex]\frac{m}{V}[/tex] ------------------(i)
The material in question here is the lead ball.
Now, from known experiment;
the density of lead is 11.34g/cm³
From the question, the weight/mass of the lead ball is 326g
Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;
11.34 = [tex]\frac{326}{V}[/tex]
V = [tex]\frac{326}{11.34}[/tex]
V = 28.75cm³
Now, since the ball is of course spherical, we can get the radius by using the following relation from the volume of a sphere;
V = [tex]\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3[/tex] [V = volume, r = radius]
V = 28.75cm³
=> 28.75 = [tex]\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3[/tex]
=> 3 x 28.75 = 4 π r³
=> 86.25 = 4 π r³
=> 21.5625 = π r³ [Take π = 3.142]
=> 21.5625 = (3.142) r³ [divide both sides by 3.142]
=> 6.86 = r³ [Take the cube root of both sides]
=> ∛6.86 = ∛r³
=> 1.90 = r
Therefore, the radius is 1.9cm to the nearest tenth

Complete question is;
Angela makes a pillow in the shape of a wedge to use for watching TV. The pillow is filled with 0.35 m³ of fluffy
material. The Height is 0.5 m and the
Base is 1 m.
What is the length of the pillow?
Give an exact answer (do not round)
Answer:
length of Pillow = 1.4 m
Step-by-step explanation:
This wedge will be the shape of a triangular prism. The volume of a triangular prism is given as;
V = area of base x length = ½ × base × height × length
Thus;
Volume of Wedge = ½ × base × height × length
We are given;
base = 1 m
height = 0.5 m
Volume = 0.35m³
And we want to find the Length(L)
Thus;
½ × 0.5 × 1 × L = 0.35
L/4 = 0.35
Multiply both sides by 4 to give;
L = 0.35 × 4
L = 1.4 m
length of Pillow = 1.4 m

[tex]5(y - 3.8) = 4.7(y - 4)[/tex]
Distribute 5 through the parentheses
[tex]5y - 19 = 4.7(y - 4)[/tex]
Distribute 4.7 through the parentheses
[tex]5y - 19 = 4.7y - 18.8[/tex]
Move ' 4.7 y ' to L.H.S and change it's sign
[tex]5y - 4.7y - 19 = - 18.8[/tex]
Move constant to R.H.S and change it's sign
[tex]5y - 4.7y = - 18.8 + 19[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]0.3y = - 18.8 + 19[/tex]
Calculate
[tex]0.3y = 0.2[/tex]
Divide both sides of the equation by 0.3
[tex] \frac{0.3y}{0.3} = \frac{0.2}{0.3} [/tex]
Calculate
[tex]y = 0.67[/tex]

[tex]5y - 4.7y = -18.8+19[/tex]
Adding and subtracting

Kini and Duke are each working during the summer to earn money in addition to their weekly allowance, and they are saving all of their money. Kini earns $9 an hour at her job, and her allowance is $8 per week. Duke earns $7.50 an hour, and his allowance is $17 per week. How many hours do Kini and Duke need to work in order to save the same amount of money in one week?
Answer:
6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Denote the working time T
=> The amount of money that Kini can save after 1 working week:
A1 = 8 + 9T
=> The amount of money that Duke can save after 1 working week:
A2 = 17 + 7.5T
If Kini and Duke save the same amount of money after 1 working week, then:
A1 = A2
=> 8 + 9T = 17 + 7.5T
=> 9T - 7.5T = 17 - 8
=> 1.5T = 9
=> T = 6
=> By working 6 hours in the 1st week, Kini and Duke will save the same amount of money.

an
ple 4:
Question
If the CP of 15 articles equals to the SP of 12 articles, find the gain percent.
Answer:
gain percent = 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the question given, we will follow the steps below:
gain% = [tex]\frac{s.p - c.p}{c.p}[/tex] × 100%
But from the question;
"CP of 15 articles equals to the SP of 12 articles", this implies that
15 c.p = 12 s.p
s.p = 15c.p / 12
s.p = [tex]\frac{15 c.p}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5c.p}{4}[/tex]
s.p = [tex]\frac{5c.p}{4}[/tex]
substitute s.p = [tex]\frac{5c.p}{4}[/tex] into the formula
gain% = [tex]\frac{s.p - c.p}{c.p}[/tex] × 100%
=[tex]\frac{\frac{5c.p}{4} - c.p }{c.p}[/tex] × 100%
= [tex]\frac{\frac{5c.p - 4c.p}{4} }{c.p}[/tex] × 100%
= [tex]\frac{c.p}{4}[/tex] ÷ c.p × 100%
= [tex]\frac{c.p}{4}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{c.p}[/tex] × 100%
= [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] × 100%
= 25 %

the vertex is (h,k) and the focus is
[tex](h,k+\dfrac{1}{4a})[/tex]

[tex]y=-\dfrac{1}{12}x^2-6[/tex]
so
[tex]a=-\dfrac{1}{12}\\\\h = 0\\\\k =-6[/tex]
So,
[tex]k+\dfrac{1}{4a}=-6-\dfrac{12}{4}=-6-3=-9[/tex]
Then, the focus is

The two lines in this graph are: y=-1/5x+2, and y=3x-2
Since y=-1/5x+2 is a dotted line, we know that we use the < or > symbols.
Since y=3x-2 is a straight line, we use the ≤ and ≥ symbols.

Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
I attached a picture and I hope this helps ;) ❤❤❤
Answer:
The third number is 14
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the average of 3 numbers add the three numbers and divide by 3
Let x be the third number
( 45+16+x) /3 = 25
Multiply each side by 3
( 45+16+x) /3 *3 = 25*3
( 45+16+x) = 75
Combine like terms
61+x = 75
Subtract 61 from each side
61+x-61 = 75-61
x = 14

A. Test Of Homogeneity.
The value of q is large when the sample variances differ greatly and is zero when all variances are zero . Sample variances do not differ greatly in the given question.
B. Test for Independence.
The chi square is used to test the hypothesis about the independence of two variables each of which is classified into number of attributes. They are not classified into attributes.
C. Test for Goodness-of-fit.
The chi square test is applicable when the cell probabilities depend upon unknown parameters provided that the unknown parameters are replaced with their estimates and provided that one degree of freedom is deducted for each parameter estimated.
