If the wall with 4 ft. of storage area can fit 6 sections of plant and the wall with 7 ft. Can fit 5, that means each section is 3 ft. because 7-4=3, so that extra section on the wall with 4 ft. You do this because there is one extra section on the wall with four. Knowing this, the wall with 7 ft. Would be the 7 ft. + 5 sections of 3 ft. So 7+(5x3) = 22. On the wall with 4 ft., do the same,
4+(6x3) =22. Since they are equal and the walls are supposed to be equal, we can confirm this is the right answer
Articles of clothing that the store received last Thursday is 84
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that
A clothing donation store received numerous articles of clothing on Thursday of last week.
The number of articles of clothing that the store received last Thursday is represented by the following expression:
4 (3x − 1) − 2 (6 + 2x)
Need to calculate articles of clothing that the store received last Thursday when x = 12.5
As on Thursday x = 12.5, need to substitute x = 12.5 in above equation to get number of articles received on Thursday.
On substituting x = 12.5, we get
4 ( (3 x 12.5 ) – 1 ) – 2 ( 6 + ( 2 x 12.5 ) )
=> 4 (37.5 – 1) – 2 (6 + 25)
=> 146 – 62 = 84
On substituting x = 12.5 , we are getting value of expression as 84.
Hence articles of clothing that the store received last Thursday is 84
The 3 angles of a triangle have to add up to 180 degrees. Since we are given 2 of the angles, all we have to do is add them up and then subtract from 180 to get the 3rd.
112 + 41 = 153
180 - 153 = 27
Angle 2 = 27 degrees.
