By the Triangle Angle-Sum theorem, the angles of a triangle add up to 180, no matter what kind of a triangle it is.  Now we just have to determine how to identify each angle according to the info we have.  It looks like all 3 angles are dependent upon the measure of the smallest angle, so we will call the smallest angle x.  The second angle is 50 degrees more than the smallest, so the second angle is x + 50.  The third angle is 10 degrees less than 2 times the smallest angle, so the third angle is 2x-10.  We will add all those together and set them equal to 180.  x+x+50+2x-10=180.  Combining like terms we have 4x+40=180, and 4x = 140.  x = 35.  So the smallest angle measures 35.  The second one is 50 more, so the second one is 85.  The third one is 10 less than twice the smallest, so the third angle is 60.  Add those results together and make sure they come to 180.  They do!

All 3 angles of a triangle must equal to 180. You can simply set up an equation to solve this and set it equal to 180.

Angle 1 - 50 + x
Angle 2 - x
Angle 3 - 2x -10

50+x+x+2x-10=180
4x+40=180
4x=140
x=35

Angle 1 = 50+35= 85
Angle 2 = 35
Angle 3 = 2(35) - 10 = 60

60+35+85=180

LenaWriter [7]

Adding or subtracting a constant from each value of a distribution changes the mean, but not the standard deviation.


The standard deviation will equal 3.

Which of the following BEST describes how to use the addition property of equality to isolate the variable y
Alexandra [31]

Answer:  C) add 12 to both sides

Reason:

We add 12 to the left side to undo the -12, which will get y by itself.

We must do the same thing to both sides to keep things balanced.
