Answer:

Angle PQW is equal to 35 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle PQW = 36x - 1

Angle WQR = 134x

Angle PQR = 169 degrees

To find angle PQW, Set Angles PQR and WQR to PQW. The equation should look like this:

PQR - WQR = PQW

Substitute in the values

169 - 134x = 36x - 1

Now add 134x to both sides and add 1 to both sides.

170 = 170x

Now divide 170 from both sides

x = 1

Plug x into angle PQW

36(1) - 1 = 35

What is the solution to this system of equations? Y= 2x - 3.5 x - 2y = -14
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

x=7

y=10.5


Step-by-step explanation:

1. You can apply the method of substitution, as you can see below:

- Substitute y=2x-3.5 into the other equation and solve fo x:

x-2(2x-3.5)=-14\\x-4x+7=-14\\x=7

- Substitute the value of x obtain into the first equation, then the value of y is:

y=2(7)-3.5\\y=10.5

An entrepreneur estimates his total profit (total revenue minus total cost) for his proposed company as p(x) = x3 − 4x2 + 5x − 2
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Year in which the entrepreneur break even is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

p(x) = x^3-4x^2+5x-20

We would find the value of x

Solving:

x^3-4x^2+5x-20 = 0

(x^3-4x^2)+(5x-20) = 0

x^2(x-4)+5(x-4) = 0

(x-4)(x^2+5)=0

=> x-4 = 0 and x^2+5 =0

x = 4 and x^2 = -5

x = 4 and x = ±√-5 or ±√5 i (not real solutions)

So, x = 4

So, year in which the entrepreneur break even is 4

The table shows the estimated number of lines of code written by computer programmers per hour when x people are working.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Hence, the model that best represents the data is:

y=26.9x-1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a table that  shows the estimated number of lines of code written by computer programmers per hour when x people are working.

We are asked to find which model best represents the data?

So for finding this we will put the value of x in each of the functions and check which hold true that which gives the value of y i.e. f(x) as is given in the table:

We are given 4 functions as:

A)

y = 47(1.191)^x

B)

y=34\times (1.204)^x

C)

y=26.9x-1.3

D)

y=27x-4

We make the table of these values at different values of x.

x                  A                 B                C               D

2              66.66          49.3            52.5           50

4             94.57            71.44           106.3         104  

6             134.14           103.57         160.1          158

8             190.27          150.14          213.9         212

10           269.91           217.64         267.7         266

12           382.85          315.5           321.5          320.

Hence, the function that best represents the data is:

Option C.

y=26.9x-1.3

Shannon rolls 2 fair dice and adds the results from each. Work out the probability of getting a total of 13.
Bingel [31]

Answer:

0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fair dice are dice that have 6 sides, and the probability of rolling a side is the same as rolling another.

Since each die has 6 sides, the most you can get from the two dice are 6 + 6 = 12. Therefore, getting a 13 is impossible. So, there is a probability of 0.

Hope this helps!
