Lets say you can go on 'x' number of times

If every time it takes 2min to prepare for the ride and the ride itself takes 1 and 1/2 min, then both together would be

2min + 1 and 1/2 min = 3 and 1/2 min

Now divide from 30

30/ (7/2) #notice I changed 3 and 1/2 to 7/2 so they are the same denominator

= 30 * 2/7 # when dividing by a fraction, you can multiply the numerator by the reverse of the bottom fraction

= 60/7

This number can not be simplified. However the number of full rides would be 8 times

7*8 = 56

Now the remaining 4/7 times... isn't possible! You can't go on a ride less than one time!

So the answer is 8!

8 or 8 1/2 because you won't finish the ride due to 28 + 3 1/2 being odd

Answer:

m∠A = 91°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠A ≅ ∠B (Vertical Angle Theorem). This means that the two angles will have the same measurements.

Note that a straight line = 180° (Definition of a Straight Line).

Find the value of m∠B.

180 - 47 - 42 = m∠B

m∠B = 180 - (89)

m∠B = 91°

Remember that ∠B & ∠A are vertical angles, so they will have the same measurement.

m∠A = 91°

What is the square root of 50 rounded to the nearest hundredth?
tamaranim1 [39]
Let's write an inequality, such as follows: x < sqrt(50) < y. Square both sides of the equation. We get x^2 < 50 < y^2. Obviously, x is between 7 and 8. Also notice, that for integers a,b, (ab)^2/b^2, equals a^2. So let's try values, like 7.1. Using the previous fact, (7.1)^2, equals (71)^2/100. So, (7.1)^2, equals 50.41. Thus, our number is between 7 and 7.1. We find, with a bit of experimentation, that the square root of 50, is 7.07.

Answer:

Simplifying

5x + x = 54

Combine like terms: 5x + x = 6x

6x = 54

Solving

6x = 54

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Divide each side by '6'.

x = 9

Simplifying

x = 9
