Answer:

  D. m∠a=139°, m∠b=23°, m∠c=18°

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a multiple-choice question that can be answered simply by considering the reasonableness of the answers.

__

The expression for ∠a suggests it will be by far the largest of the angles, eliminating choices A and C.

No angle in a triangle is more than 180°, eliminating choice B.

The expression for ∠b suggests it will have a measure less than 31°. This confirms choice D as the correct one.

  m∠a=139°, m∠b=23°, m∠c=18°

__

If you want to work the problem, you use the fact that the sum of angles is 180°

  ∠a +∠b +∠c = 180°

  (40x -21)° +(31 -2x)° +(x +14)° = 180°

  39x +24 = 180 . . . . . . . . . divide by °, collect terms

  39x = 156 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 24

  x = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 39

Then the measures of the angles are ...

  ∠a = (40×4 -21)° = 139°

  ∠b = (31 -2×4)° = 23°

  ∠c = (4 +14)° = 18°

Musya8 [376]
In this question, you are given 3 separate vegetables without single price. If you want to solve it step by step, it will be easier to count each vegetable price before hand. The price would be:
Cucumber: 2$/6 pieces= $0.33 /piece
Pepper: $9/12 pieces= $0.75/piece
Tomatoes: 4$/6 pieces= $0.66/piece

Then the total cost for the chef shopping item would be: 9 * $0.33 + 18 * $0.75 + 21* $0.66= $3 + $13.5+ $14= $30.5

The difference between rational and irrational
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

Every integer is a rational number, since each integer n can be written in the form n/1. For example 5 = 5/1 and thus 5 is a rational number. However, numbers like 1/2, 45454737/2424242, and -3/7 are also rational, since they are fractions whose numerator and denominator are integers.
