Well lets say M=Melvin's weight and B=two boys the ratio would be M:B or
M to B. If it was the ratio of the two boys to Melvin's weight it would be B:M or B to M. Hope that helped!!☺
The first term will be an x because
x squared breaks down as x times x.
First look for factors of your constant that add to your
coefficient of the middle term in the trinomial.
Also note that the constant is negative and a negative
factors as the product of a positive and a negative.
The factors of -20 that add to -8 are -10 and +2.
So we have y = (x - 10)(x + 2).
Step-by-step explanation:
x= 2 y = 10
x= 0 y = 8
x= 4 y = 12
We are given that there are:
Black helmets = 3
Red helments = 2
Let us start from the guy at the back. The guy at the back
can see the two helmets in front of him. If the two helmets in front of him are
red, then he can certainly say that his helmet is black since there are only 2
red helmets. Since that is not the case, then therefore he can either be black
or red. Therefore this also means that at least 1 of the 2 guys in front of him
has black helmet.
<span>Since the remaining two should have at least 1 black,
therefore the middle guy can see that the helmet in front of him is not red (so
1st guy is black). Because if the guy in front of him is red, then
he can know that he must be black since remember, at least one of the 2 front
guys must be black, but the middle guy cannot say that. Therefore the 1st
guy knows he has a black helmet.</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For two angles x and y to be supplementary, the sum of the angles must be 180°
x+y = 180
x = 180-y... 1
If the measure of the angle is five times greater than its supplement this is expressed as:
x = 5y…. 2
Substitute equation 2 into 1
5y = 180-y
5y+y = 180
6y = 180
y = 30°
Hence the measure of the supplement is x = 5y
x = 5(30)
x = 150°
