so 5 people work each one for 21 minutes, that means 21+21+21+21+21 minutes altogether, namely 105 minutes, it took that long for 7 walls, hmmmm how long for just one wall then? well, 105 ÷ 7, namely 15 minutes then, for just 1 wall.


now, if it takes 15 minutes of work to do one wall, what about 5 walls? well, that'd be 15*5 or 75 minutes.


so if we have 3 folks working, how much would each one work? well, 75 ÷ 3, namely 25 minutes, so each of them will work 25 minutes, namely 25+25+25 minutes, so in 25 minutes, they'll be done with 5 walls.

In the figure shown, r || s. If the measure of ∠ 2 = 146°, what is the measure of ∠ 7
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

34°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, let's find the measure of ∠1 because since r || s, that means ∠1 = ∠7 because they're both alternate exterior angles. Alternate exterior angles are congruent.

2. (Solving for ∠1)

  • 146 + x = 180
  • 146 + x - 146 = 180 - 146
  • x = 34

3. Now, since we know ∠1 = ∠7, ∠7 = 34°.

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth of a degree, if necessary.
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

x =48.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp side / hypotenuse

sin x = 54 /72

Taking the inverse sin of each side

sin ^ -1( sin x) =sin ^-1 ( 54/72)

x = 48.59037789

To the nearest tenth

x =48.6
