<h2>Answer:</h2>

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

I've drawn a graph in order to a better understanding of this problem. We know that:

BC is perpendicular to AC

∠DBE = 2x - 1

∠CBE = 5x - 42

Let's call the intersection of line BC and AC the point P, so:

∠P=90°

And points B, P and C form the triangle ΔBPC. On the other hand, ∠CBE and ∠PCB are Alternate Interior Angles, so:

∠PCB = ∠CBE = 5x - 42

Moreover:

∠PBC = 2x - 1 - (5x - 42)

∠PBC = 2x - 1 - 5x + 42

∠PBC = -3x + 41

The internal angles of any triangle add up to 180°. Hence for ΔBPC:

90° + ∠PBC + ∠PCB  = 180°

90° - 3x + 41  + 5x - 42  = 180°

2x + 89 = 180

2x = 91

x = 45.5°

Complete Question :

Isaac surveyed the employees at a law firm. Each employee was asked to record their highest level of education completed. The

results are shown in the table below.

Highest Level of Education Completed

Education Level

Percentage

High School

5%

Community College

10%

Four-Year College

60%

Graduate School

25%

Two-hundred sixty people completed the survey. How many of those people completed graduate school?

Answer:

65 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of survey participants = 260

Percentage that completed graduate school = 25%

Number of participants who completed graduate school ;

Total Number of participants × percentage that completed graduate school

260 participants × 25%

260 × 0.25

= 65

What are the zeros of the quadratic function f(x) = 6x2 + 12x – 7?
zalisa [80]

we have

f(x) = 6x^{2} + 12x -7

To find the zeros equate the function to zero

6x^{2} + 12x -7=0

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

7= 6x^{2} + 12x

Factor the leading coefficient

7= 6(x^{2} + 2x)

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

7+6= 6(x^{2} + 2x+1)

13= 6(x^{2} + 2x+1)

Rewrite as perfect squares

13= 6(x+1)^{2}

(13/6)=(x+1)^{2}

square root both sides

x+1=(+/-)\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}}

x=-1(+/-)\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}}

x1=-1+\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}}

x2=-1-\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}}

therefore

the answer is

The zeros of the quadratic function are

x=-1+\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}} and x=-1-\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}}

Sue played four games of golf for these games her modal score was 98 and her mean score was 100 her range of score was 10 what w
earnstyle [38]

Answer : Remaining two observation becomes 97 and 107.

Explanation :

Since we have given that

Mean = 100

Modal value = 98

Range = 10

As we know that ,

Range = Highest-Lowest

Let highest observation be x

Let lowest observation be y

So equation becomes x-y=10 ----equation 1

So, observation becomes

x,98,98,y

Now, we use the formula of mean i.e.

Mean = \frac{\text{Sum of observation}}{\text{N.of observaton}}

So, mean =\frac{x=98=98+y}{4}=400\\\frac{196+x+y}{4}=100\\x+y=400-196\\x-y=204

So our 2nd equation becomes

x+y=204

On using elimination method of system of linear equation on these two equation we get,

x=97

and

x+y=204\\y=204-x\\y=204-97\\y=107

Hence , remaining two observation becomes 97 and 107.

ΔEFG ~ ΔLMN. Find LM.
Vika [28.1K]
EFG ~ LMN, if EF ~ LM, then whatever the number is for EF times whatever the others are multiplied by, you will get LM
for example: 

FG (10) ~ MN (20)

if EF is (5), then LM is (10) (for you are multiplying by two.

Another example:

if FG is (100) ~ MN will be (200) (again for you are multiplying by two.

hope this helps
