Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles are equal to 90 degrees.

angle ABC + angle DBC = 90

6x+13+4x-3=90

Combine like terms

6x+4x+13-3=90

10x+10=90

get x alone by subtracting 10 on both sides

10x=80

divide 10 on both sides

x=8

An artist can paint 4 painting in 2 hours. What is the artist’s unit rate?

dolphi86 [110]

All we have to do here is divide 4 by 2

4 ÷ 2 = 2

Therefore, the artist can paint 2 paintings an hour making the unit rate, 2 paintings per hour.

Hope this helps

I WILL AWARD BRAINLIEST!! PLEASE HELP!!

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Part 1) $A(57/7,9),B(4,16/5), m=7/5$

Part 2) $A(-7,6),B(9,-6/7), m=-3/7$

Part 3) $A(80/3,9),B(5,2.5), m=0.3$

Part 4) $A(-10/63,1/3),B(2/3,-22/90), m=-0.7$

Part 5) $A(-1/5,7),B(8,48), m=5$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line into slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept

Part 1) we have

$7x-5y=12$

step 1

Find the slope

$7x-5y=12$

isolate the variable y

$y=(7/5)x-(12/5)$

the slope is $m=(7/5)$

step 2

Find the missing coordinate of point A

To find the x-coordinate of point A substitute the value of y-coordinate in the equation

$9=(7/5)x-(12/5)$

$(7/5)x=9+(12/5)$

$(7/5)x=(57/5)$

$x=(57/7)$

step 3

Find the missing coordinate of point B

To find the y-coordinate of point B substitute the value of x-coordinate in the equation

$y=(7/5)(4)-(12/5)$

$y=(28/5)-(12/5)$

$y=(16/5)$

Part 2) we have

$y=-(3/7)x+3$

step 1

Find the slope

the slope is $m=-(3/7)$

step 2

Find the missing coordinate of point A

To find the x-coordinate of point A substitute the value of y-coordinate in the equation

$6=-(3/7)x+3$

$(3/7)x=3-6$

$(3/7)x=-3$

$x=-7$

step 3

Find the missing coordinate of point B

To find the y-coordinate of point B substitute the value of x-coordinate in the equation

$y=-(3/7)(9)+3$

$y=-(27/7)+3$

$y=-(6/7)$

Part 3) we have

$y=0.3x+1$

step 1

Find the slope

the slope is $m=0.3$

step 2

Find the missing coordinate of point A

To find the x-coordinate of point A substitute the value of y-coordinate in the equation

$9=0.3x+1$

$0.3x=9-1$

$0.3x=8$

$x=80/3$

step 3

Find the missing coordinate of point B

To find the y-coordinate of point B substitute the value of x-coordinate in the equation

$y=0.3(5)+1$

$y=2.5$

Part 4) we have

$6.3x+9y=2$

step 1

Find the slope

$6.3x+9y=2$

isolate the variable y

$y=-(0.7)x+(2/9)$

the slope is $m=-0.7$

step 2

Find the missing coordinate of point A

To find the x-coordinate of point A substitute the value of y-coordinate in the equation

$(1/3)=-(0.7)x+(2/9)$

$(0.7)x=(2/9)-(1/3)$

$(0.7)x=-(1/9)$

$x=-(10/63)$

step 3

Find the missing coordinate of point B

To find the y-coordinate of point B substitute the value of x-coordinate in the equation

$y=-(0.7)(2/3)+(2/9)$

$y=-(14/30)+(2/9)$

$y=-(22/90)$

Part 5) we have

$y-5x=8$

step 1

Find the slope

$y-5x=8$ -------> $y=5x+8$

the slope is $m=5$

step 2

Find the missing coordinate of point A

To find the x-coordinate of point A substitute the value of y-coordinate in the equation

$7=5x+8$

$5x=7-8$

$x=-1/5$

step 3

Find the missing coordinate of point B

To find the y-coordinate of point B substitute the value of x-coordinate in the equation

$y=5(8)+8$

$y=48$

Times for an ambulance to respond to a medical emergency in a certain town are normally distributed with a mean of 400 seconds a

garri49 [273]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the normal distribution curve, the mean is in the middle and each line to the left and to the right of that mean represent 1- and 1+ the standard deviation. If our mean is 400, then 400 + 50 = 450; 450 + 50 = 500; 500 + 50 = 550. Going from the mean to the left, we subtract the standard deviation and 400 - 50 = 350; 350 - 50 = 300; 300 - 50 = 250. We are interested in the range that falls between 350 and 450 as a percentage. That range represents the two middle sections, each containing 34% of the data. So the total percentage of response times is 68%. We are looking then for 68% of the 144 emergency response times in town. .68(144) = 97.92 or 98 emergencies that have response times of between 350 and 450 seconds.
