You know from the given information, there are 20 people in total. 
When asked 14 people stated that they liked chocolate. This leaves a group of people out of 20 who do not like chocolate. 

20-14=6 

You know from this that 6 people do not like chocolate while 14 of them do 

Hope I helped :)

Find three consecutive odd integers such that the sum of the 1st and 2nd number is 344
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

three consecutive odd integers are.

171, 173, 175

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the first term of odd integer,

Therefore, the second consecutive odd integers = x+2

Similarly, the third consecutive odd integers = x+4

Given:

The sum of the first term and second term is 344.

first term + second term = 344

Here first term is x and second term is x+2.

x+(x+2)=344

2x+2=344

2x=344-2

x=\frac{342}{2}

x=171

Therefore, the first odd integers is 171.

And the second consecutive odd integers = x+2=171+2=173

Similarly, the third consecutive odd integers = x+4=171+4=175

A rain gutter is made from sheets of aluminum that are 16 inches wide by turning up the edges to form right angles. Determine th
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Depth of the rain gutter is 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s assume ‘x’ is the depth of the rain gutter

Then the width of the rain gutter can be written as 16 - 2x

Cross sectional area

A = depth x width

Substitute values

A = x*(16 - 2x)

A = 16x – 2x^2

Now according to axis of symmetry for maximum area x = -b/2a

x = -16/2*(-2)

x = 4 inches depth of rain gutter, substitute the value of x to get

Width of rain gutter 16 – 2(4) = 8 inches

Area of the rain gutter for maximum water flow

A = 4 * 8

A = 32 square inch.

How many degrees are each angle of a regular 7 sided shape?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Here is a diagram of a seven sided regular polygon. You use this diagram to find out how many degrees total are in the interior of a the heptagon. There are 5 such triangles which means that since each triangle has 180o the total amount of the interior angles must be 5 * 180 = 900

Since there are 7 interior angles, the answer to how large each one of them is is found by

900/7 = 129.57 which is slightly off because it is a rounded error.

In general, the size of the angles  in a  regular polygon

180(n - 2 ) / n

Where n is the number of degrees in each interior angle. For example for an 8 sided figure you would get

180(8 - 2) / 8 = 180 * 6/8 = 133 degrees.
