Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Percy is not correct because he applied the zero product property to a factored expression that was not equal to 0. He should have subtracted 12 from both sides to get x2 + 7x = 0 before factoring. The correct solutions are 0 and -7.

In a rectangle, a diagonal forms a 36° angle with a side. Find the measure of the angle between the diagonals, which lies opposi
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The answer is 72 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture that Helpmetnx showed does work. But they made a mistake and assumed that the diagonal is a angle bisector, and it's not.

1. rectangle ABCD, BD & AC are the diagonals. ∠ABD =36 degrees

2. ∠ABD= ∠BDC = 36 - alternate interior angles

3. ∠DBC = 90 - 36 = 54. ∠DBC =∠ADB = ∠BCA = 54

4. Now we know that the triangle formed between the two diagonals is a isosceles triangle because of base angle theorem.

5. 180 - 54*2 = 72 degrees

I hope this helps!

An insurance company uses the formula T=3.5n + 5 to work out the cost, T pounds, for insuring a customer for n days. Work out th
artcher [175]

Answer:

Cost of travel insurance for 4 days = 19 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The insurance company uses the formula T = 3.5n + 5 to work out the cost , T pounds for  insuring the customer for n number of days . Where n is the number of days.

The algebraic equation given has two variables which are cost T of insuring and n which is the number of days for insuring. Mathematically,

T = cost of insuring in pounds

n = number of days

Therefore, finding the cost T for 4 days

T = 3.5n + 5

T = 3.5 × 4 + 5

T = 14 + 5

T = 19 pounds

Cost of travel insurance for 4 days = 19 pounds

(03.06 MC)Solve the equation for the letter r: d = rt
Neporo4naja [7]
The equation for r: d = rt would be 'r equals d over t.'

How, you might ask? Well, let's consider this example:

You might already know what d = rt stands for... "Distance equals rate times time", so if you divide the two sides by 't', you would come up with r = d/t. So that would finalize as your answer for this question.
