A wire 45 meters long is cut into two pieces, One piece is 5 meters longer than the other. What is the length of the two pieces? Create an equation and solve .

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

A wire 45 meters long is cut into two pieces

One piece is 5 meters longer than the other.

To find:

The length of the two pieces.

Solution:

Let length of one piece be x.

One piece is 5 meters longer than the other. So,

Length of another piece = x+5

Total length of wire is 45. So,

[tex]x+(x+5)=45[/tex]

[tex]2x+5=45[/tex]

Subtract 5 from both sides.

[tex]2x=45-5[/tex]

[tex]2x=40[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]x=\dfrac{40}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=20[/tex]

Now,

Length of one piece = 20 meters

Length of another piece = 20 + 5

                                        = 25 meters

Therefore, the length of two pieces are 20 and 25 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both the arcs centered at A and B are drawn as radius AB.

Therefore, AB = BC = AC

So, triangle ABC will be an equilateral triangle.

Since, AB = 5 CM

THEREFORE,

AC = 5 CM

BC = 5CM

Measure of each angle of equilateral triangle is 60°

Therefore,

Angle A = 60°

Angle B = 60°

Angle C = 60°

Valerie bought a guitar at a sale price of S = 0.8g, where g represents the original cost of the guitar. Which expression shows the sale price in a way that emphasizes the percent discount that she received? A S = (1 + 0.8). B S= (1 +0.2) g C S= (1 - 0.8). D S = (1 – 0.2) g​

Answers

Answer:

D S = (1 - 0.2)g

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the guitar was g.

She paid 0.8g.

0.8g = 0.80g = 80% of g

If she paid 80% of the price, that means the discount was 20%.

100% - 20% = 1 - 0.2

Subtracting 20% form the whole 100% of the price is the same as subtracting 0.2 from the whole price of 1.

Answer: D S = (1 - 0.2)g

1/4 x 2 2/3, what is the product? (In fraction)

Answers

1/4 * 8/3 = 8/12 = 2/3

Answer:

8/12

Step-by-step explanation:

you want to write out your problem so it is

1/4 * 2 2/3

then you would want to change your 2nd fraction into an improper fraction (i think.  i don't remember the correct term)

so you would multiply the denominator by the whole number on the side and then add the numerator to it

2 2/3 would them become 8/3 (you keep the denominator the same through the process)

so then you would multiply

1/4 by 8/3

multiply across and you get 8/12

The Garcia family started the day with 2 gallons of milk. They drank 111 quart of milk for breakfast and 3 pints for lunch.
How many pints of milk did the Garcia family have left after lunch?

Answers

3 pints

There are 8 pints of milk in 1 gallon. There is also 4 quarts in 1 gallon. So each quart is 2 pints.
After breakfast they had 3 quarts of the original gallon left since 4 - 1 = 3.
3 quarts is the same as 6 pints. They drank 3 pints at lunch. This means 6 - 3 = 3. After lunch, there were 3 pints left.

Which equation is a line that passes through the points (4, 5) and (0, -3)?

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x - 3

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 ) = (4, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 3)

m = [tex]\frac{-3-5}{0-4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-8}{-4}[/tex] = 2

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 3) ⇒ c = - 3

y = 2x - 3 ← equation of line

If m 3 = 74 degrees, find each measure

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

m∠4 = m∠3 = 74° (vertically opposite angles are equal)

m∠8 + m∠3 = 180° (linear pair)

m∠8 + 74° = 180°

m∠8 = 180° - 74°

m∠8 = 106°

m∠7 = m∠8 = 106° (vertically opposite angles are equal)

m∠2 = m∠3 = 74° (alternate interior angles are equal)

m∠1 = m∠2 = 74° (vertically opposite angles are equal)

m∠6 + m∠1 = 180° (linear pair)

m∠6 + 74° = 180°

m∠6 = 180° - 74°

m∠6 = 106°

m∠5 = m∠6 = 106° (vertically opposite angles are equal)
