PLEASE EXPLAIN THE STEPS

A. 5°B.15°C.75°D. 150°

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option D is correct.

The measure of [tex]\angleWYX = 150^{\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\triangle WXY[/tex] is isosceles  and [tex]\angle YWX[/tex] and [tex]\angle YXW[/tex] are base angles.

Isosceles Triangle:

A triangle with two equal sides, and two congruent base angles that means the angles are equal

By the definition, the base angles are equal i.e, [tex]m\angle YWX=m\angle YXW[/tex]

Since, YZ bisects [tex]m\angle WYX[/tex]

Angle Bisector theorem: An angle bisector is a line or ray that divides an angle into two equal angles

then, [tex]\angle WYX =2\angle XYZ[/tex] or

Substitute the value of [tex]\angle XYZ=(15x)^{\circ}[/tex] ;

[tex]\angle WYX =2(15x)^{\circ} = (30x)^{\circ}[/tex]

The sum of measures of these three angles of  triangle WXY is equal to the 180 degree.

In triangle WXY we have;

[tex]\angle YXW+\angle WYX+\angle YWX=180^{\circ}[/tex]

Substitute the value of [tex]m\angle YWX=m\angle YXW=(2x+5)^{\circ}[/tex] and [tex]\angle WYX=(30x)^{\circ}[/tex] in above formula:

[tex]2\angle YXW+30x=180^{\circ}[/tex] or

[tex]2\cdot(2x+5)+30x=180^{\circ}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]4x+10+30x=180^{\circ}[/tex]

Combine like terms ;

[tex]34x+10^{\circ}=180^{\circ}[/tex] or

[tex]34x=170^{\circ}[/tex]

Simplify;

[tex]x= \frac{170}{34} =5^{\circ}[/tex]

Substitute the value of x in  [tex]\angle WYX [/tex];

[tex]\angleWYX = (30x)^{\circ} = 30 \cdot 5 = 150^{\circ}[/tex]

Therefore, the measure of [tex]\angleWYX = 150^{\circ}[/tex]

find sin x if cos x= 2/3 and x is in quadrant 4

Answers

yes you'll use the half angle identities to solve...it sounds like you understand how to use them just not which sign to use.

This is actually pretty easy. All you have to do is know what quadrant your angle is in and that will determine the sign.

Quadrant1 = all trig functions are positive
Quadrant2 = sine is positive and cosine and tangent are negative
Quadrant3 = tangent is positive and sine and cosine are negative
Quadrant4 = cosine is positive and sine and tangent are negative

since your original angle is in quadrant 4 then the half angle will be in Quadrant 2

so the sine of the half angle is positive and the cosine of the half angle is negative
the sine is negative in quadrant 4

adjacent side = 2 and hypotenuse = 3 so opposite side will be -sqrt 5

so sin x = - sqrt5/ 3

2.What is the slope-intercept form of the linear equation x + 4y = 12? Enter your answer in the box.

3.Graph the equation on the coordinate plane. y=1/2x

Answers

Answer: 1. A) 3x−4y=10

2. [tex]y=-\frac{x}{4}+3[/tex]

3. In the attachment.


Explanation:

1. Given equation=[tex]y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

To reduce it into standard form , multiply both sides by 4,we get

[tex]4y=4(\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{5}{2})\\\Rightarrow4y=3x-10......[distributive\ property]\\\Rightarrow3x-4y=10[/tex] which is option A.

2. Given linear equation : x+4y=12

The standard slope intercept form is given by y=mx+c where m is the slope and c is the constant.

To reduce given linear equation subtract x from both sides, we get

4y=12-x

Divide 4 on both sides.

[tex]\Rightarrow\ y=\frac{12-x}{4}=3-\frac{x}{4}\\\Rightarrow\ y=-\frac{x}{4}+3[/tex] is the slope-intercept form of the linear equation x + 4y = 12.

3. To graph equation [tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x[/tex] on the coordinate plane.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the line passing through points q(8, 7) and p(4, 1).

Answers

The formula to find slope is (y2-y2)/(x2-x1)

You can remember it like this: "If you want to be wise, remember rise over run, which is y's over x's."

The next step is to determine which point is (x1,y1) and which is (x2,y2).
We do this by determining which point has the biggest x value: (8,7)

Now we plug it into the formula: (8-4)/(7-1) 
Simplify and we get: 4/6 or 2/3

Voila! You have your slope: 2/3

Hope this helps, and May the Force Be With You.

The length of a rectangle is 2 cm longer than its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 36 cm , find its area.

Answers

The area is 80 cm squared
Final answer:

The area of the rectangle is 80 square cm.

Explanation:

To find the area of a rectangle, we need to know the length and width. Let's denote the width of the rectangle as 'w'. As given, the length of the rectangle is 2 cm longer than its width, so the length can be represented as 'w + 2'.

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of all four sides. In this case, it is given as 36 cm. Using the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle, we can set up the equation:

2(w + w + 2) = 36

Simplifying the equation:

4w + 4 = 36

4w = 32

w = 8

Substituting the value of 'w' back into the expression for length:

Length = 8 + 2 = 10

The area of a rectangle is given by the formula: area = length × width. So, the area of this rectangle is:

Area = 10 × 8 = 80 square cm

It takes an older pump twice as long to drain a certain pool as it does a newer pump. working together, it takes the two pumps 3 hours to drain the pool. how long will it take the newer pump to drain the pool working alone

Answers

It would take the newer pump 4.5 hours to drain the pool working alone.

Given that,

It takes an older pump twice as long to drain a certain pool as it does a newer pump.

Let us assume that,

The time it takes for the newer pump to drain the pool alone is x hours.

Hence, According to the information given, the older pump takes twice as long, so it would take 2x hour to drain the pool alone.

Now, When both pumps work together, their combined rate of draining the pool is additive.

Therefore, the equation is,

[tex]\dfrac{1}{x} + \dfrac{1}{2x} = \dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

Simplify the equation for x,

[tex]\dfrac{(2 + 1)}{2x} = \dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{(3)}{2x} = \dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

Cross multiplication,

[tex]3 \times 3 = 2x[/tex]

[tex]2x = 9[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 2:

[tex]x = 4.5[/tex]

Therefore, it would take the newer pump 4.5 hours to drain the pool working alone.

A jar of coins contains dimes, pennies, and quarters. There are 220 pennies in the jar. There are 3 quarters for every 4 pennies, and there is 1 dime for every 3 quarters. How many dimes and quarters are in the jar?

A.55 dimes and 165 quarters
B.98 dimes and 293 quarters
C.73 dimes and 98 quarters
D.165 dimes and 55 quarters

Answers

   option a should be the answer

Answer:

A. 55 dimes and 165 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The number of pennies in the Jar = 220,

∵ There are 3 quarters for every 4 pennies,

i.e. 4 pennies = 3 quarters,

⇒ 1 penny = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] quarter

220 pennies = [tex]220\times \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{660}{4}[/tex]

= 165 quarter.

Therefore, there are 165 quarters.

Now, there is 1 dime for every 3 quarters,

i.e.  3 quarters = 1 dime

⇒ 1 quarter = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] dime,

⇒ 165 quarters = [tex]\frac{165}{3}[/tex] = 55 dimes.

Therefore, there are 55 dimes.

Multiplication is the mathematical operation that is used to determine the product of two or more numbers. If an event can occur in m different ways and a second event can occur in n different ways, then the two events in succession can occur in m × n different ways.

We knowt that there are 365 days per year, 24 hours per day, 12 months per year, and 60 minutes per hour.

1 day = 24 hour

1 hour = 60 minutes.

1 minutes = 60 seconds

Therefore, 24 hours = 24 x 60 = 1440 minutes

There are 1440 minutes in one day.

Then 30 days = 30 x 1440 = 43,800

Hence, It is found that there are 43,800 minutes in a month.

x = 180/18
x = 10 <=== so there is 10 oz of oil
Final answer:

The amount of oil, in ounces, in the fuel mix can be found using a proportion with the given ratio and the amount of gasoline.

Explanation:

To find the number of ounces of oil, we need to use the given ratio and the amount of gasoline. The ratio of oil to gasoline is 5:18, meaning that for every 5 ounces of oil, there are 18 gallons of gasoline. Since we know that there are 36 gallons of gasoline, we can set up a proportion to find the number of ounces of oil:

5 ounces / 18 gallons = x ounces / 36 gallons

Cross multiplying, we get:

18x = 5 * 36
