Answer:

G.) 23 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

makeing it into a proportion would be the easiest -

9/x = 21/54

21x = 486

/21 /21

x = 23.14

rounded out would be x = 23 meters

Angle 3 is 65 degrees. Identify all the other angles that measure 65 degrees.

Bas_tet [7]

Angles 2, 6, and 7 because angle 1 = 115 so that makes angle 4 = 115 so angle 2 must also be 65 so angle 4 and 2 = 180 and the same goes for angles 5,6,7,8

Use proportion to find the whole 75 is 15% of what number

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

500

Step-by-step explanation:

15% * x = 75

(15/100) * x = 75 Multiply both sides by 100/15

(15/100)*(100/15) = 75 * 100/15

x = 7500/15

x = 500

Answer 500

Proportion

15/100 = 75 / x Cross multiply

15x = 100*75 Combine the right

15x = 7500 Divide 15

15x/15 = 7500/15

x = 500

Help! How Can I Determine the interval in which the function is increasing.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

$(2,\infty)$

Step-by-step explanation:

After x=2, we see that the change in y over the change in x is positive since both variables increase with each other, so $(2,\infty)$ is where the function is increasing.
