40=15x+30
x is the number of yards
Solve for x
Subtract 30 from both sides: 10=15x
Divide 15 into both sides: x= 10/15= 2/3
Answer: 2/3 yards
Hope this helps!!!!!!!!!

She charges $15 per lawn, so for mowing x lawns, she earns 15x.
She has a fixed expense of $30 in total, not per lawn.

15x - 30 = 40

15x = 70

x = 4 2/3

If she mows 4 2/3 lawns, she will make a profit of $40, but since she must mow full lawns, not a fraction if it, she must mow 5 lawns.

The sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon is 1800 degrees. How many sides does is have? *
Rudik [331]

Answer:

12 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of sides of a regular polygon with the sum of interior angles of 1800 degrees, we will follow the steps below;

first write down the formula for finding sum of the interior angle of a polygon

s= (n-2)180

where s is the sum of the interior angle and n is the number of side

from the question given, sum of the interior angle s=1800 degrees

substitute s=1800 degree into the formula and solve for n

s= (n-2)180

1800 = (n-2)180

divide both-side of the equation by 180

1800/180 = n-2

10 = n - 2

add 2 to both-side of the equation

10 + 2 = n

12 = n

n= 12

The polygon have 12 sides

What is a 96% confidence interval for the proportion of weight-lifting injuries in this age group that were accidental?
loris [4]
<span>A 96% confidence interval means that 96% of the time you can believe that the result will fall into a range of numbers. In the case of weight lifting this would mean that 96% of the time, the proportion of weight-lifting injuries were accidental would fall in between the two parameters set forth.</span>
