In a convex pentagon, two of the interior angles are equal in measure. The other three interior angles are also equal to each other, and each of these three is 40∘40^\circ larger than the measure of one of the first two angles. What is the measure of the largest exterior angle of this pentagon?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 96∘96^\circ

Cevap

The largest exterior angle is 96∘96^\circ.
The correct answer is 96∘96^\circ because setting up the equation for a pentagon's sum of interior angles, 2x+3(x+40)=5402x + 3(x + 40) = 540, gives x=84∘x = 84^\circ as the smallest interior angle. The exterior angle is supplementary to the interior angle, so 180∘−84∘=96∘180^\circ - 84^\circ = 96^\circ.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the sum of the interior angles of a pentagon.
Using the formula (n−2)×180∘(n - 2) \times 180^\circ, for n=5n = 5, the sum is (5−2)×180∘=3×180∘=540∘(5 - 2) \times 180^\circ = 3 \times 180^\circ = 540^\circ.
You must know the total sum of the interior angles before you can solve for any individual unknown angle.
2
Set up an algebraic equation to represent the interior angles.
Let the two smaller equal angles be xx. The three larger equal angles are (x+40∘)(x + 40^\circ). The equation is 2x+3(x+40∘)=540∘2x + 3(x + 40^\circ) = 540^\circ.
Translating the word problem into algebra allows us to solve for the specific angle measures.
3
Solve the equation for xx.
Distribute the 3 to get 2x+3x+120∘=540∘2x + 3x + 120^\circ = 540^\circ. Combine like terms: 5x+120∘=540∘5x + 120^\circ = 540^\circ. Subtract 120 from both sides: 5x=420∘5x = 420^\circ. Divide by 5: x=84∘x = 84^\circ.
Solving for xx provides the measure of the smallest interior angles.
4
Determine the largest exterior angle.
An exterior angle is supplementary to its adjacent interior angle. The largest exterior angle corresponds to the smallest interior angle. The largest exterior angle is 180∘−84∘=96∘180^\circ - 84^\circ = 96^\circ.
Because exterior and interior angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees, the smallest interior angle creates the largest exterior angle.

Find the ordered pair (x,y)(x, y) that satisfies both equations below:

y=3x−2y = 3x - 2
y=x+6y = x + 6

Which of the following is the correct solution?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: (4,10)(4, 10)

Cevap

The correct solution is the ordered pair (4,10)(4, 10).
By setting the two expressions for y equal to each other (3x−2=x+63x - 2 = x + 6), we can isolate x to find x=4x = 4. Substituting 44 back into either original equation gives y=10y = 10. Therefore, the solution is (4,10)(4, 10).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Set the right sides of both equations equal to each other.
3x−2=x+63x - 2 = x + 6
Since both expressions are equal to y, they must be equal to each other.
2
Subtract xx from both sides to group the variables.
2x−2=62x - 2 = 6
This begins the process of isolating the variable x.
3
Add 22 to both sides of the equation.
2x=82x = 8
This isolates the term with the x variable on one side and the constant on the other.
4
Divide both sides by 22.
x=4x = 4
This fully isolates x to find its numerical value.
5
Substitute x=4x = 4 into the second equation to find yy.
y=4+6=10y = 4 + 6 = 10
Substituting the known x value back into either original equation yields the corresponding y value.

An armored vehicle traverses an 1818-mile desert route. It travels the first 1010 miles at a constant speed of 2020 miles per hour. If the vehicle completes the entire route in exactly 4545 minutes, what is its speed in miles per hour for the remaining distance?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 32

Cevap

The speed for the remaining distance is 3232 miles per hour.
To find the unknown speed, you must isolate the distance and time for the final segment. First, the time for the 1010-mile stretch is calculated as 0.50.5 hours, which is equivalent to 3030 minutes. Subtracting this from the total 4545 minutes leaves 1515 minutes (or 0.250.25 hours) to travel the remaining 88 miles. Dividing the 88 miles by the 0.250.25 hours of remaining time yields a final speed of 3232 miles per hour.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the time for the first segment.
10 miles÷20 mph=0.5 hours10 \text{ miles} \div 20 \text{ mph} = 0.5 \text{ hours}
You need to know how much time was spent on the first segment to determine the time left for the remainder of the route.
2
Convert the first segment's time into minutes.
0.5 hours×60 minutes/hour=30 minutes0.5 \text{ hours} \times 60 \text{ minutes/hour} = 30 \text{ minutes}
The total time is provided in minutes (4545 minutes), so making the units consistent allows you to easily subtract and find the remaining time.
3
Find the remaining time available.
45 minutes−30 minutes=15 minutes45 \text{ minutes} - 30 \text{ minutes} = 15 \text{ minutes}
This step determines exactly how much time the vehicle has to complete the rest of the route.
4
Convert the remaining time into hours.
15 minutes÷60 minutes/hour=0.25 hours15 \text{ minutes} \div 60 \text{ minutes/hour} = 0.25 \text{ hours}
Since the requested final speed must be in miles per hour, the time value needs to be expressed in hours.
5
Determine the remaining distance.
18 miles−10 miles=8 miles18 \text{ miles} - 10 \text{ miles} = 8 \text{ miles}
This is the physical distance the vehicle must cover during the final 1515 minutes.
6
Calculate the speed for the final segment.
8 miles÷0.25 hours=32 mph8 \text{ miles} \div 0.25 \text{ hours} = 32 \text{ mph}
Dividing the remaining distance by the remaining time gives the required speed.

A small business owner takes out a loan of $15,000\$15,000 to repair commercial equipment. After exactly 8 months, the loan is paid off with a single payment of $15,900\$15,900. Assuming simple interest is applied, what is the annual interest rate on the loan?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 9%9\%

Cevap

The annual simple interest rate on the loan is 9%9\%.
To find the annual interest rate, we first determine the total interest paid by subtracting the principal from the total payment ($15,900−$15,000=$900\$15,900 - \$15,000 = \$900). Next, we convert the 8-month term into years by dividing by 12, which gives 2/32/3 of a year. Plugging these into the simple interest formula, I=P×R×TI = P \times R \times T, gives 900=15,000×R×(2/3)900 = 15,000 \times R \times (2/3). Simplifying the right side yields 900=10,000×R900 = 10,000 \times R. Dividing both sides by 10,000 results in R=0.09R = 0.09, or 9%9\%.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the total amount of interest paid.
$15,900−$15,000=$900\$15,900 - \$15,000 = \$900
The simple interest formula requires the interest amount, which is the difference between the total payoff amount and the original principal.
2
Convert the loan duration from months into a fraction of a year.
8 months=812 year=23 year8 \text{ months} = \frac{8}{12} \text{ year} = \frac{2}{3} \text{ year}
Annual simple interest rates require the time variable (TT) to be expressed in years.
3
Substitute the known values into the simple interest formula (I=P×R×TI = P \times R \times T) and solve for the rate (RR).
$900=$15,000×R×23\$900 = \$15,000 \times R \times \frac{2}{3}
$900=$10,000×R\$900 = \$10,000 \times R
R=90010,000=0.09=9%R = \frac{900}{10,000} = 0.09 = 9\%
Isolating RR provides the annual interest rate in decimal form, which is then converted to a percentage.

Two motorboats leave a marina at the same time, traveling in opposite directions on a straight path. One boat travels at a constant speed of 1818 mph, and the other travels at a constant speed of 2222 mph. How many minutes will it take for the two boats to be exactly 120120 miles apart?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 180

Cevap

180
Because the boats are moving in opposite directions, their relative speed of separation is the sum of their individual speeds: 18 mph + 22 mph = 40 mph. To find how long it takes to separate by 120 miles, divide the distance by the relative rate: 120 / 40 = 3 hours.

Each provided description translates to a specific algebraic or geometric property that uniquely identifies a single polygon. Setting up and solving the respective equations for nn (number of sides) or applying logical diagnostic properties of quadrilaterals produces the correct matching pairs.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the polygon where the interior angle sum is five times the exterior angle sum.
180(n−2)=5(360)⇒180(n−2)=1800⇒n−2=10⇒n=12180(n-2) = 5(360) \Rightarrow 180(n-2) = 1800 \Rightarrow n-2 = 10 \Rightarrow n=12.
Applying the universal constant for exterior angle sums (360∘360^\circ) allows solving algebraically for the 1212-sided dodecagon.
2
Solve for the polygon where the number of diagonals equals 2.52.5 times the number of vertices (nn).
n(n−3)2=2.5n⇒n−3=5⇒n=8\frac{n(n-3)}{2} = 2.5n \Rightarrow n-3 = 5 \Rightarrow n=8.
Equating the formula for the total number of diagonals to 2.5n2.5n allows us to simplify and identify the 88-sided octagon.
3
Deduce the quadrilateral with congruent, bisecting, non-perpendicular diagonals.
The shape is uniquely identified as a rectangle (excluding a square).
Bisecting diagonals prove it is a parallelogram, congruent diagonals prove it is a rectangle, and non-perpendicularity proves it is not a square.
4
Calculate the sides of the polygon where the interior angle is 100∘100^\circ larger than the exterior angle.
I+E=180∘I + E = 180^\circ and I−E=100∘I - E = 100^\circ. Solving the system gives E=40∘E = 40^\circ. Since n=360En = \frac{360}{E}, n=36040=9n = \frac{360}{40} = 9.
Recognizing that interior and exterior angles form a linear pair lets us set up a system of equations. Finding the exterior angle easily leads to the 99-sided nonagon.

In a geometric diagram, angle α\alpha and angle β\beta are complementary. Furthermore, angle β\beta and angle γ\gamma are supplementary. If the measure of angle α\alpha is represented by the expression (2x−5)∘(2x - 5)^\circ and the measure of angle γ\gamma is represented by (5x−2)∘(5x - 2)^\circ, what is the measure of angle β\beta?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 37∘37^\circ

Cevap

37∘37^\circ
The correct answer is found by recognizing that angle β\beta can be expressed in two ways: 90∘−α90^\circ - \alpha and 180∘−γ180^\circ - \gamma. Setting 90−(2x−5)90 - (2x - 5) equal to 180−(5x−2)180 - (5x - 2) allows us to solve for x=29x = 29. Substituting xx back into the first expression yields 95−2(29)=37∘95 - 2(29) = 37^\circ.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Express angle beta in terms of x using the complementary relationship.
β=90−(2x−5)=95−2x\beta = 90 - (2x - 5) = 95 - 2x
Since alpha and beta are complementary, their sum is 90 degrees.
2
Express angle beta in terms of x using the supplementary relationship.
β=180−(5x−2)=182−5x\beta = 180 - (5x - 2) = 182 - 5x
Since beta and gamma are supplementary, their sum is 180 degrees.
3
Set the two expressions for beta equal to each other and solve for x.
95−2x=182−5x⇒3x=87⇒x=2995 - 2x = 182 - 5x \Rightarrow 3x = 87 \Rightarrow x = 29
Both expressions represent the same angle, so they must be algebraically equivalent.
4
Substitute the value of x back into either expression to find the measure of angle beta.
β=95−2(29)=95−58=37∘\beta = 95 - 2(29) = 95 - 58 = 37^\circ
This provides the final numerical measure of the target angle.

A cyclist is riding on a paved trail at a constant speed of 15 miles per hour15 \text{ miles per hour}. At this rate, how many miles will the cyclist travel in 40 minutes40 \text{ minutes}?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 10

Cevap

10
The distance is found by matching the time units to the speed units. First, convert 40 minutes40 \text{ minutes} into 23 hours\frac{2}{3} \text{ hours}. Then, multiply the speed (15 mph15 \text{ mph}) by the time (23 hours\frac{2}{3} \text{ hours}) to get exactly 10 miles.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert the travel time from minutes to hours.
40 minutes=4060 hours=23 hours40 \text{ minutes} = \frac{40}{60} \text{ hours} = \frac{2}{3} \text{ hours}
The speed is given in miles per hour, so the time must be converted to hours before using it in the distance formula.
2
Calculate the total distance traveled.
15×23=10 miles15 \times \frac{2}{3} = 10 \text{ miles}
Distance is equal to the rate (speed) multiplied by the time (d=r×td = r \times t).

A wholesale electronics representative earns a guaranteed weekly base salary of $800\$800. In addition to the base salary, he earns a 5%5\% commission on any weekly sales that exceed a $2,000\$2,000 quota. If his total sales for the week were $6,500\$6,500, what was his total gross pay for the week?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $1,025\$1,025

Cevap

$1,025\$1,025
The total gross pay is the sum of the base salary and the earned commission. First, subtract the quota from total sales to find the commissionable amount: $6,500−$2,000=$4,500\$6,500 - \$2,000 = \$4,500. Next, calculate the 5%5\% commission on this amount: $4,500×0.05=$225\$4,500 \times 0.05 = \$225. Finally, add the commission to the base salary: $800+$225=$1,025\$800 + \$225 = \$1,025.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the amount of sales eligible for commission by subtracting the quota from total sales.
$6,500−$2,000=$4,500\$6,500 - \$2,000 = \$4,500
The 5%5\% commission is only earned on sales that exceed the $2,000\$2,000 quota.
2
Calculate the commission amount by converting 5%5\% to a decimal and multiplying it by the eligible sales.
0.05×$4,500=$2250.05 \times \$4,500 = \$225
This determines the additional earnings from sales performance.
3
Add the calculated commission to the guaranteed base salary to find the total gross pay.
$800+$225=$1,025\$800 + \$225 = \$1,025
Total gross pay is the sum of all fixed and variable earnings.
