Remark

The easy way to do this is to change 5/8 to a decimal and worr y about changing it back to a fraction if you need to.

15 5/8 = 15.625 The easy way to find 5/8 is to use your calculator. 5 ÷ 8 = on most calculators.

You want 12 of these

1 leg is 15.625 inches long.

12 legs = x

1/12 = 15.625 / x Cross multiply

x = 12 * 15.625

x = 187.5 inches

Just how many feet is that? Divide by 12 to get the number of feet 187.5 / 12 =

15.625 feet.

Usually 2 by 4s are 8 or 12 feet long. For 8 feet you will need 2 of them and for 12 feet unfortunately you will need two as well.

Both numbers have the variable x so you add 5 and 12 which gives you 17 and you need to write the variable. The answer is 17x

Find the value of x in the triangle shown below.<br> x =<br> 98°<br> 27°
Levart [38]

Answer: 55

Step-by-step explanation: There is one simple theorem we need to know in order to solve for this.

Triangle Angle-Sum Property: All three angles interior angles of a triangle add up to 180°.

Thus, we could label the points A, B, and C, and set up an algebraic expression.

Let A = 27, B = 98, and C = x.

A + B + C = 180°.

Substituting A, B, and C we get:

27 + 98 + x = 180°.

Adding, we get:

125 + x = 180°

Subtracting 125 by 180, we get:

x = 55°

Thus, the angle X is 55°.

We could have simply solved this by just doing 180 - 98 - 27 = 55 in the first place, but I wanted to show you how I got such results.
