What is the value of x?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary, thus

∠ A + ∠ B = 180, substitute values

9x + 8 + 8x + 2 = 180, that is

17x + 10 = 180 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

17x = 170 ( divide both sides by 17 )

x = 10

ollegr [7]
The Pythagorean Theorem states that a² + b² = c², c being the hypotenuse.


Substitute known values into the equation.

7² + 2² = c²
49 + 4 = c²
c² = 53
c = √53
c = 7.28010989


Answer: The hypotenuse's length is 7.3 feet.

On Eduardo's workbench are the following
Maurinko [17]

Answer: 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cans of red paint = 3

Number of cans of blue paint = 5

Number of cans of green paint = 8

Number of cans of yellow paint = 4

Total number of cans of paint = 20

The probability that Eduardo will

choose a can of red paint or a can of blue will be:

= P(red) + P(blue)

= 3/20 + 5/20

= 8/20

= 2/5

The probability is 2/5.
