Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
(7x)° + 61° = 180° (interior angle Postulate)
(7x)° = 180° - 61°
(7x)° =119°
7x = 119
miles per gallon (x) = d/g
x = 476/14 = x = 34 miles per gallon
so d/x = g
578/34 = 17 gallons are needed
ivan used 5 yards of green for each quilt and 4 yards of blue for each quilt.
Lila did it correctly. The answer is 324
Following PEMDAS, we first focus on the parenthesis. So we simplify 9-3 to get 6
So we go from
18*4^2+(9-3)^2
to
18*4^2+6^2
The next step is applying exponents. In this case, squaring the terms, so we go from
18*4^2+6^2
to
18*16+36
Next is multiplying
18*16+36
turns into
288+36
Finally, add up 288 and 36 to get 288+36 = 324
That confirms that Lila is correct
----------------------
The error that Rob made is that he computed 18*4^2+9^2-3^2 but it is NOT correct. Saying (x-y)^2 = x^2-y^2 isn't a true equation for all x and y. Again you have to simplify what is in the parenthesis first, and then you can square it. Or you must use the FOIL rule to expand out (9-3)^2
It's an acute angle because it's smaller than 90 degrees and isn't a straight line.
