Trapezoid $RSTU$ is a cross section of a lampshade. The diagonals of $RSTU$ are congruent, and the measure of $\angle S$ is $112

Answer:

112°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the diagonals of trapezoid RSTU are congruent, it is an Isosceles Trapezoid.

One of the properties of an Isosceles Trapezoid is that the base angles are equal.

Therefore if the measure of angle S=112°, the measure of Angle U will also be 112°.

Which system of equations is inconsistent?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Option A is correct.

The system of equation is inconsistent is;

2x+8y=6

5x+20y=2

Explanation:

* A system of equations is called an inconsistent system, if there is no solution because the lines are parallel.

* If a system has at least one solution, it is said to be consistent .

*A dependent system of equations is when the same line is written in two different forms so that there are infinite solutions.

(A)

2x+8y=6

5x+20y=2

This is inconsistent, because as shown below in the  graph of figure 1 that the lines do not intersect, so the graphs are parallel and there is no solution.

(B)

5x+4y=-14

3x+6y=6

this system of equation is Consistent because it has exactly one solution as shown below in the graph of Figure 2 and also it is independent.

(C)

x+2y=3

4x+6y=5

this system of equation is Consistent because it has exactly one solution as shown below in the graph of Figure 3.

(D)

3x-2y=2

6x-4y=4

this is a consistent system and has an infinite number of solutions, it is dependent because  both equations represent the same line. as shown below in the graph of Figure-4.

Therefore, the only Option A system of equation is inconsistent.

What are the x- and y- coordinates of point E, which partitions the directed line segment from J to K into a ratio of 1:4? (–13,
Lana71 [14]

I added a screenshot of the complete question.

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

(-7, -1)

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>The formulas given to calculated the x and y coordinates are as follows:</u>

x = (\frac{m}{m+n})(x_{2}-x_{1}) + x_{1}\\\\y = (\frac{m}{m+n})(y_{2}-y_{1}) + y_{1}

<u>Let's define the variables used:</u>

(x₁ , y₁) are the coordinates of the first point while (x₂ , y₂) are the coordinates of the second point.

<u>We are given that the segment is directed from J to K, therefore:</u>

First point is J ..........> (x₁ , y₁) is (-15, -5)

Second point is K ....> (x₂ , y₂) is (25, 15)

m and n defined the portion of the partitioned segment (JE : EK). It is given that this ratio is 1:4. <u>Therefore:</u>

m = 1 and n = 4

<u>Finally, let's substitute with these variables in the equations as follows:</u>

x = (\frac{1}{1+4})(25-(-15)) + (-15) = -7\\\\y = (\frac{1}{1+4})(15-(-5)) + (-5) = -1

Based on the above, the coordinates of point E are (-7, -1)

Hope this helps :)

Angela and Neil are going to the movies. They each bought a medium popcorn, and Neil got a small soft drink. Angela had a $5 gif
bagirrra123 [75]
Let us assume the cost of a soft drink = x dollars
Value of the gift certificate that Angela had = $5
Cost of the movie ticket = $10
Cost of a medium popcorn = $5.50
Then
27.90 + 5 = 2(10) + 2(5.50) + x
32.90 = 20 + 11 + x
32.90 = 31 + x
x = 1.90 dollars

From the above deduction, it can be easily concluded that the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or $1.90.
