Charlie has 1072 more stamps than ryan. This is because if x represents the amount of stamps that ryan has, then 5x represents how many charlie has. set up an equation, and you get 5x+x=1608, because all together they have 1608. Then collect(combine) like terms and you get 6x=1608. Divide both sides by 6 and you get x=268. Therefore ryan has 268 stamps, and charlie has 5x268 stamps, or 1340 stamps, and to get how many for charlie has, subtract his by ryan's, and you get 1340-268=1072

Help me help me answer this
Leya [2.2K]

If both triangles are congruent (that's what the sign means), then AD=CB, and CD=AB. Substituting what we are given into CD=AB,


6x-5=3x+10

Solving the equation:

3x=15

x=5

So we know that 2x+4 (the value of AD) becomes 2*5 +4, and you get 14. Since we know that AD=CB, then CB is also 14. No need to find y!

Answer: CB=14

HELP I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND 20 POINTS TO CORRECT ANSWER-Hunter is rolling the dice to see what the probability of rolling di
Neko [114]

Answer:

My assumption of the probability would be..

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2

1/3 or less

1/5 or more

1/8

Because if your looking for probability, Its asking for the chance that it will be able to roll in a certain number so you have a 1/2 of it landing on one or the other side if it's a 2 sided coin or a 1/3 if you have a 3 sided triangle shaped dice.
