Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

Factory A proportion:

3 : 2,000

Factory B proportion:

5 : 4,500 (this can be simplified):

1 : 900

Now plug in 18,000 to each proportion:

Factory A:

x : 18,000

3 : 2,000

x = 27

Factory B:

x : 18,000

1 : 900

x = 20

Factory A had the greater amount of defects, 27

Find x and y ! <br><br> pls help giving 50 points !!
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

y = 20°

x = 35°

Explanation:

Equation's:

   1) 2y + x + 105° = 180°

   2) 3x + x + 2y = 180°

Make y subject in equation 2

3x + x + 2y = 180

4x + 2y = 180

2y = 180 - 4x

y = 90 - 2x

Insert this into equation 1

2(90 - 2x) + x + 105° = 180°

180 - 4x + x + 105 = 180

-3x = -105

x = 35°

Find value of y

y = 90 - 2x

y = 90 - 2(35)

y = 20°
