We know that she has 245, which is 70% of the total. Which can be written as 70/100. We know that 245 is that same percentage of an unknown value.  

We can say then, \frac{245}{x} = \frac{70}{100}

We need to cross multiply 24500= 70x

If we solve for x we get, x=350

If 18 is added to a certain number and the sum is divided by 6, the result is 1 more than 14 of the original number. Find the or
Katyanochek1 [597]
The original number is 72 


(18+x)/6 = 1+14 
1/6x + 3 = 1 + 14 (Distribute)
1/6x + 3 = (1+14) (Combine Like Terms)
1/6x + 3 = 15 
        - 3 = -3          (Subtract 3 From Both Sides)
1/6x = 12 
(1/6x)*6 = 12 * 6  (Multiply Both Sides By 6)
x = 72

How many degrees is angle “X”?
aleksley [76]

Answer:

The answr is 102 degrees. Here's why

Step-by-step explanation:

The square means the angle is 90 degrees. Therefore, for the big triangle, we already know 2 of the degrees, 50 and 90. A triangle's degrees add up to 180. 50+90=140. 180-140=40. This means the top angle is 40. Now finding X is easy, because we already know the other 2 points in the triangle, which are 38 and 40. Add those up, you get 78. 180-78=102, your answer. The triangle is 102 degrees.

What is the perimeter of a triangle with side lengths of 9, 12, and 4x?
ludmilkaskok [199]
The answer is 21 + 4x.


You find this answer by adding up all the sides.
9+12+4x= 21+4x ... you don't add 4x because it has a variable that we do not know of the value.

victus00 [196]
The equation for this would be 41/4 + 52/3 - 41/3= ?
So then you just change all the denominators to their lcm, which is 12 and multiply the numerator accordingly.
123/12 + 208/12 - 164/12 = 167/12
