Answer:2 1/2 + 1/3 = 5/2 + 1/3 = 15/6 + 2/6 = 17/6 cup
(2/6)/(17/6) = (2/6)(6/17) = 2/17 (two parts in 17), or 11.8%
1 2/3 + 1/4 = 5/3 + 1/4 = 20/12 + 3/12 = 23/12 cup
(3/12)/(23/12) = (3/12)(12/23) = 3/23 (three parts in 23), or 13.04%
Step-by-step explanation:
In this diagram we see that 80 and 3x+4y are both vertical angles and vertical angles are congruent or always equal so we can set those two equations equal to each other then we can see that a line splits two angles making them supplementary (they equal 180 degrees) So we can have another equation, the two equations are:
3x+4y=80 and 3x+4y+7x-8y=180 (add like terms to simplify and get 10x-4y=180
Then use elimination to get rid of the y variables
10x-4y=180 (plus)
+3x+4y=80 (the negative 4 and positive 4 cancels each other out so you are left with:)
13x=160 (divide by x)
x=12.30769 which can be rounded to x=12.31
Then we have to plug in x into the first equation:
3(12.31) + 4y = 80
36.93 + 4y = 80 (subtract 36.93 from 80)
4y = 43.07 (divide)
y=10.7675 or rounded to 10.77
so x=12.31 and y=10.77
