Find the value of the variables in each figure. Explain your reasoning.

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure has one pair of parallel sides and is a trapezoid.

Each lower base angle is supplementary to the upper base angle on the same side, thus

15x + 30 + 10x = 180 , that is

25x + 30 = 180 ( subtract 30 from both sides )

25x = 150 ( divide both sides by 25 )

x = 6

Also

3y + 18 + 90 = 180 , that is

3y + 108 = 180 ( subtract 108 from both sides )

3y = 72 ( divide both sides by 3 )

y = 24

2x, 90 and x lie on a straight line and sum to 180 , thus

2x + 90 + x = 180 , that is

3x + 90 = 180 ( subtract 90 from both sides )

3x = 90 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 30

2y and x are alternate angles and congruent , thus

2y = x = 30 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 15

the required function is .

step-by-step explanation:

from the given table it is noticed that the graph passing through (-3,7), (0,4), (3,1) and (8,-4).

it is a linear function because the value of y is decrease by one as the value of x increase by 1.

the slope of the function is

the slope of the function is -1 and the y-intercept is 4.

the slope intercept form is

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

therefore the required function is . the graph of this function is shown below.

introduction, methodology, results, discussion

step-by-step explanation:

an observational study is one which consists of actual observation to record data and then analyse the data.

there are a number of factors that should be analyzed before starting an observational study.

the main four factors are:

i) introduction:   this should be analysed to check whether the purpose of the study is correctly established and the data recorded are appropriate for the study

methodology:   the method of collecting the data, such as whether randomly selected, and whether sample size matches with the population to be studied, whether questions asked are easy to answer by common men, etc.

results: then results such as summary of data with comments should be studied thoroughly

discussion:   the last is the discussion, this can be either by management people or persons who are all interested , etc.
