Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is an isosceles triangle, Angle B and Angle C are equivalent. We can use this to find x

3x = 75

x = 25

Angles in a triangle add up to 180, so knowing the measure of Angle B and Angle C, we can find the measure of Angle A

Angle A = 180-(75+75)

Angle A = 180-150

Angle A = 30

We know Angle A = 4y+10

4y + 10 = 30

4y = 20

y = 5

Serena is building a bookcase she cuts two pieces of wood from one board one piece is 1 7/8 feey long and another is 3.5 ft long

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

$\frac{43}{8}$ feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The total change is the sum of the length of two boards she cut.

First board length is 1 7/8th feet. Let's change to improper fraction:

1 7/8 = 15/8 feet

Second board lengrh is 3.5 feet, or 3 1/2 feet. Let's change to improper fraction:

3 1/2 = 7/2 feet

Let's add the two:

$\frac{15}{8}+\frac{7}{2}\\=\frac{15+28}{8}\\=\frac{43}{8}$

The change in original board is 43/8 feet
