Answer X=14, Y=55
See diagram
To find X, I know the angles will equal 180
110 + 5x = 180
Subtract 110 from both sides to isolate X
5x = 70, solve for X, divide both sides by 5
X = 14
Do the same for Y
We know the triangle will equal 180
So (5x) is (5x14= 70) and the other angle is 40.
180-40-70 = 70 for the unknown angle in the triangle.
We know the angles in the Y part of the question will equal 180 so
70 + 2y = 180, subtract 70 from both sides to isolate Y
2y = 110, now solve for Y by dividing both sides by 2
Y = 55

Angles on straight line = 180

110 + 5x = 180 degrees

-110

5x. = 70

÷ 5

x. = 14

5 x 14 = 70

Angles in triangle = 180

70 + 40 = 110

So, the missing angle inside the triangle is 70

Now to find y, use angles on straight line = 180

2y + 70 = 180

- 70

2y = 110

÷2

y = 55 degrees

Hope this helps!

Find the amount of sap the maple syrup producer collected from each tree if the total amount (5 gallons) was redistributed equal

Afina-wow [57]

The picture in the attached figure

we know that
total amount of sap =[3*(1/4)+2*(3/8)+4*(5/8)+1*(1)]
total amount of sap =[(3/4)+(6/8)+(20/8)+(1)]
total amount of sap =[(3/4)+(3/4)+(10/4)+(4/4)]
total amount of sap =[20/4]
total amount of sap =5 gallons
total of trees=10

<span>[amount of sap collected from each tree]=total amount of sap/total of trees
</span>
[amount of sap collected from each tree]=5/10----> 0.5 gallons per tree

the answer is
0.5 gallons
