Let x represent the amount of beef and y represent the amount of pork Mike used in recipe.

He used total 8 lbs of meat, so we can write:

x + y = 8

He uses 3:1 ratio of beef to pork, so we can write:

x :y  = 3 : 1
x = 3y

Using this value of x in first equation, we get:

3y + y =8
4y = 8
y = 2

x = 3y = 3(2) = 6

This means Mike used 6 lbs of beef and 2 lbs of pork for his recipe

triangle qrs has the angle measures shown. m∠q = (1x)° m∠r = (3x)° m∠s = (6x)° the measure of the obtuse angle equals
skelet666 [1.2K]
The sum of all interior angles in a triangle is 180°.

m∠q + m∠r + m∠s = 180°
1x + 3x + 6x = 180
10x = 180
x = 180/10
x = 18

m∠q = (1x)° = 1 x 18 = 18°
m∠ r = (3x)° = 3 x 18 = 54°
m∠s = (6x)° = 6 x 18 = 108°

m∠s is the obtuse angle because its measure is more than 90°. Its angle measures 108°

Can you help me with this it’s so confusing plz help me with both is this
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

First picture: -4,913

Second picture: 20.25

Step-by-step explanation:

-17^5/-17^2 = -17^3

-17 × -17 × -17 = -4913

4.5^5/4.5^3 = 4.5^2

4.5 × 4.5 = 20.25

Do you see how I had the same whole number on the top and bottom? (17 was on top and 17 was on bottom)

The exponents were those tiny numbers you saw.

Whenever you are dividing by the same whole number (-17/-17), you can subtract exponents.

When you multiply the same whole number, you can add the exponents.

Hope this helps! Best of luck :)
