A. 15 ft
B. 18 ft
C. 12 ft
D. 9 ft

Answer:

x = 22°

Step-by-step explanation:

Between two parallel lines, the opposite inside angles will be congruent. So, x is equal to angle V. The sum of the angles of any triangle will be 180°. Therefore, you can find the value of x by setting all the angles of the triangle SRV equal to 180°.

S = 5x + 4

R = 44

V = x

S + R + V = 180                                         <----- General equation

(5x + 4) + 44 + x = 180                              <----- Insert values

5x + 48 + x = 180                                      <----- Add 4 and 44

6x + 48 = 180                                           <----- Add 5x and x

6x = 132                                                    <----- Subtract 48 from both sides

x = 22                                                      <----- Divide both sides by 6

Answer: equation: y=-4x+1

slope: -4

y intercept:1

Answer:

1. 60%

2. He paid Rs. 1285.71

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

He buys an item for x.

He sells the item with a 25% of the marked price, and he still makes a 20% profit over his cost x.

He must sell for x + 20% of x which is the same as 1.2x.

Let the markup be y%.

Since he gives a 25% discount over the marked price, he sells for 75% of the marked price.

0.75(x + y% of x) = 1.2x

0.75(x + xy/100) = 1.2x

x + xy/100 = 1.6x

Divide both sides by x.

1 + y/100 = 1.6

Multiply both sides by 100.

100 + y = 160

y = 60

Remember that y is in percent, so the markup must be 60%.

Check:

He buys an item for $10.

He applies a markup of 60%. 1.6 × $10 = $16.

He has a price of $16 for this item.

Now he gives a 25% discount. That means the discounted price is 75% of the marked price.

75% of $16 = $12

He sells at a 25% discount for $12.

Compare the actual selling price after the 25% discount with this cost.

$12 compared to $10.

$12/$10 = 1.2 = 120%

Since he sells for 120% of the original price, the markup is 20% which is what he wanted.

2.

The cost to the seller is x.

If he sells it at a 20% profit, then he sells it for 1.2x

Now he gives a discount of 5%, so the final selling price after discount is

0.95(1.2x)

The profit is the difference between what he sold it for, 0.95(1.2x), and what he bought is for, x, and it is Rs. 180.

0.95(1.2x) - x = 180

1.14x - x = 180

0.14x = 180

x = 1285.71

Answer: He paid Rs. 1285.71

Answer:

a) ∠VUW

b) VY

c) XYV

d) 180°

e) 65°

Step-by-step explanation:

A central angle is an angle that creates an arc in a circle, while also having its vertex as the center of the circle.

Here the center is U. So, the vertex of the angle must include U.

This means that there are multiple answers to part a.

The answers can be:

∠VUW

∠WUX

∠XUV

A minor arc is any arc that doesn't exceed 180°.

The possible answers for part b, using this definition are:

WV

VY

XY

The answer you inputted here is incorrect.

The order of the letters matter.

A tip for you to never mess these up is to trace the letters you've chosen with your finger and see if that image you make with your finger matches up with the shape you wanted to make.

An arc that makes a semicircle is an arc that connects the endpoints of the diameter. The diameter in this case is VX.

This means that your answer must start with V and end with X, or the other way around. (Meaning you could start with x and end with v, but always make sure you keep the endpoints of the diameter as the endpoints of the arc.)

The possible answers for this part are either:

VYX or VWX

This arc intercepts the diameter, which is a straight line and a central angle.

The angle of a diameter is 180°.

The arc of an intercepted central angle has the same measure of the central angle itself.

So, the measure of VWX is 180°.

If an arc intercepts a central angle, then the arc has the same measure as the central angle.

This rule works the other way around, too.

So, the central angle has the same measure as the minor arc that it intercepts.

Measure of arc VUW is 65°, so m∠VUW is also 65°.

The value of x such that the vertices 3x + 10 and x + 60 are equal is 25

Vertices are the endpoints or corners of a shape (such as triangle, square, rectangle and related shapes)

The two vertices are given as:

3x + 10 and x + 60

The condition on the two vertices are not given.

So, we assume that the vertices are equal (as in the base angles of an isosceles triangle)

So, we have the following equation

3x + 10 = x + 60

Subtract x from both sides of the equation

2x + 10 = 60

Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation

2x = 50

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

x = 50/2

Evaluate the quotient

x = 25

Hence, the value of x such that the vertices 3x + 10 and x + 60 are equal is 25

The ANSWER is 1/2 x (3/5) : (9/15) (-6/4) : (4/1) = -3/16 = -0.1875

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiple: 1/2 * 3/5 = 1 · 3/2 · 5 = 3/10

Multiply both numerators and denominators. Result fraction keep to lowest possible denominator GCD(3, 10) = 1. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.

In other words - one half multiplied by three fifths is three tenths.

Divide: the result of step No. 1 : 9/15 = 3/10 : 9/15 = 3/10 · 15/9 = 3 · 15/10 · 9 = 45/90 = 45 · 1/45 · 2 = 1/2

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 9/

15 is 15/9) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the following intermediate step, cancel by a common factor of 45 gives 1/2.

In other words - three tenths divided by nine fifteenths is one half.

the result of step No. 2 * (-6/4) = 1/2* (-6/4) = 1 · (-6)/2 · 4 = -6/8 = -3 · 2/4 · 2= -3/4

Multiply both numerators and denominators. Result fraction keep to lowest possible denominator GCD(-6, 8) = 2. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.

In other words - one half multiplied by minus six quarters is minus three quarters.

Divide: the result of step No. 3 : 4 = -3/

4 : 4 = -3/4 · 1/4 = -3 · 1/4 · 4 = -3/16

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 4/

1 is 1/4) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the following intermediate step, it cannot further simplify the fraction result by canceling.

In other words - minus three quarters divided by four is minus three sixteenths.
