Answer:

632 frogs

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the initial number of frogs were 56 that were already marked, and later on, the frogs collected were 600, out of which 24 were already marked, so we can say that the total number of frogs 'x' should be:

x = 600 + (56-24)\\

x = 600 + 32

x = 632

Hence, the total number of frogs should be 632.

In a right triangle, the acute angles measure ×+15 and 2× degrees. What is the measure of the larger acute angle of the triangle
harkovskaia [24]

Sum of angles in a triangle is 180°


90 + (x + 15) + (2x) = 180

90 + x + 15 + 2x = 180

105 + 3x = 180

3x = 180 - 105

3x = 75

x = 75 ÷ 3

x = 25


Smaller angle = x + 15 = 25 + 15 = 40°

Larger angle = 2x = 2(25) = 50°


Answer: 50°
