Answer:

each person gets 2/3 of an orange!!

Step-by-step explanation:

Barry has 3 friends. There are 2 oranges. We know each person cant get a orange fraction that is equal or greater to 1, because 2 is smaller than 3! So we take the 2 oranges and make it the numerator, or the number on top, and take the 3 friends and make them the denominator, or the number on the bottom!

Given the statement, LEI=BNZ and the diagrams shown, determine the value of x.

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the triangles are congruent then corresponding angles are congruent, so

∠ N = ∠ E

To calculate ∠ E subtract the sum of the 2 given angles from 180

∠ E = 180 - (x - 5 + 4x - 10)

= 180 - (5x - 15)

Equate ∠ N and ∠ E

5x - 5 = 180 - 5x + 15 ( add 5x to both sides )

10x - 5 = 195 ( add 5 to both sides )

10x = 200 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = 20

Five friends take a maths test

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Adam scored 60, Brandon scored 66, Chen scored 74, Damion scored 75, and Erica scored 75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since five friends took the maths test, and Adam, Brandon, and Chen together together scored 200 marks; Brandon, Chen and Damion together scored 215; Chen, Damion and Erica together scored 224; and Damion and Erica scored more than Chen; While the five of them together scored 350 marks, to determine what are their individual scores the following calculations must be performed:

Adam + Brandon + Chen = 200

Damion + Erica = 150

Brandon + Chen + Damion = 215

Adam + Erica = 135

Chen + Damion + Erica = 224

Adam + Brandon = 126

Adam + Brandon = 126 + Chen = 200

Chen = 200 - 126

Chen = 74

Damion and Erica scored more than Chen

Chen + Damion + Erica = 224

74 + Damion + Erica = 224

Damion + Erica = 150

Damion = 75

Erica = 75

Brandon + Chen + Damion = 215

Brandon + 74 + 75 = 215

Brandon = 215 - 74 - 75

Brandon = 66

Adam = 350 - 75 - 75 - 74 - 66

Adam = 60

Therefore, Adam scored 60, Brandon scored 66, Chen scored 74, Damion scored 75, and Erica scored 75.
