Mathematics

x is  \frac{2y + 1}{2y - 3}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

EP = FP

GQ = FQ

Since the sides are equal, the ΔFPQ and ΔFEG are similar.

According to the property of similarity:

\frac{FP}{PE} =\frac{FQ}{QG}

On substituting the value:

\frac{2x}{4y+2} = \frac{3x-1}{4y + 4} \\\\2x ( 4y + 4) = (3x-1)(4y+2)\\\\8xy + 8x = 12xy + 6x - 4y - 2\\\\4xy - 6x - 4y - 2 = 0\\\\2xy - 3x - 2y - 1 = 0\\\\2xy - 3x = 2y + 1\\\\x(2y - 3) = 2y +1\\\\x = \frac{2y+1}{2y-3}

Perimeter will be sum of all the sides. If y is known then substitute the value and then find the perimeter.

What is m? 49° 77° 98° 161°
Mariana [72]

we know that

The measurement of <u>the external angle</u> is the semi-difference of the arcs it includes.

In this problem

21\°=\frac{1}{2}[arc\ RU-arc\ SU]

Solve for the measure of arc SU

42\°=[arc\ RU-arc\ SU]

arc\ SU=arc\ RU-42\°

arc\ SU=119\°-42\°=77\°

therefore

the answer is

The measure of the arc SU is 77\°

Full question

Janie ordered boxed lunches for a student advisory committee meeting. Each lunch cost 4.25. The total cost of the lunches is 53.75, including a 7$ delivery fee. Write and solve an equation to find x the number of boxed lunches Janie ordered

First of all subtract the delivery feesince it was inckuded in the total cost, this will now be the total cost of all the noxed lunches ordered by Janie, then divide the balance of the total cost by the cost of one boxed lunch to get thd total boxed kunches

X= 53.75-7/4.25

X= 53.75-7= 46.75/4.25

X=11

Mixed numbers between 0 and 2 with an interval of 1/3 between each pair of mixed numbers
Marysya12 [62]
A mixed number is a whole number plus a fraction.The smallest whole number is 1.So no mixed number can be less than 1.
Mixed numbers that are 1/3 apart and are between 0 and 2 
could be (1-1/3) and (1-2/3).
They could also be (1-1/6), (1-1/2), and (1-5/6) .

Check each set that includes the number shown.
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Fourth option.

Sixth option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

- Any number you can find on the number line, is a Real number.

- Integers contains positive numbers, negative numbers and zero. Every Integer is a Rational number.

- A Rational number is that number that can be written in the following form:

\frac{a}{b}

Where "a" and "b" are integers (b\neq 0).

- An Irrational number cannot be written as a simple fraction.

- A Whole number is any of the numbers {{0, 1, 2, 3...}}. Every Whole number is a Rational number.

- Natural numbers contain  the set of positive integers{{1, 2, 3...}} or to the set of nonnegative integers {{0, 1, 2, 3...}}, Every Natural number is a Rational number.

 Based on this, since \frac{5}{9} is in the form \frac{a}{b} where a=5 and b=9, it is a Rational Number and therefore a Real number.
