Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

The two labelled angles are equal, so we can construct an equation. Then, we solve the equation for x.

$4x+2=7x-25\\2=3x-25\\3x=27\\x=9$

First, we subtract 4x from both sides. Next, we add 25 to both sides. Finally, we divide both sides by 3.

This year, students in the 9th grade are collecting dimes and quarters for a school fundraiser. They are trying to collect more

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

$0.10d + 0.25q > 143.88$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total dimes collected be d.

$1\ dime = \$0.10$

$d\ dimes = \$0.10d$

Let the total quarters collected be q.

$1\ quarter = \$0.25$

$q\ quarters = \$0.25q$

$Last\ Year = \$143.88$

Required

Represent as an inequality

The total collection, this year, can be represented as:

$Total = 0.10d + 0.25q$

From the question, we understand that:

This year's collections is expected to be greater than last year's

This can be represented as:

$Total > Last\ Year$

Substitute in the right values:

$0.10d + 0.25q > 143.88$

What part of 1hr and 40 min is 25 min as a fraction?

DerKrebs [107]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 hour = 60 minutes

40 minutes out of an hour can be written as: 40/60

Fraction = 40/60

= (2 × 30) / (3 × 20)

Canceling out common factors of numerator and denominator, we get 2/3

Therefore, 40 minutes is 2/3 of an hour.

fgiga [73]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We take the equation

$x(y+3)/(3+y)z$

and substitute the values for each individual variable in the problem. It looks like this:

$12(1+3)/(3+1)6$

Now we can solve the equation.

When solved, it equals 2.
