Answer:
angle Y= 60 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
angle S + angle Y = 90 degrees because they are complementary
Y = 90 - S
angle S = 4(Y)-210
substitute for Y
S = 4(90 - S) - 210
S = 360 - 4S - 210
reduce
5S = 150
S = 30
Y = 90 - 30 = 60
5 and 1/4 can be 5.25 so all you have to do is divide that by 3 and you’ll get 1.75 per container.
If you wanted to keep it as a fraction, 5 and 1/4 would become 21/4 (you do 5 x 4= 20 + 1) and for fractions I always remembered dividing as ‘Keep, Change, Flip’ so you would do 21/4 for keep. Change would be to change the sign from division to multiplication. And for Flip you would flip 3 over 1 (3/1) to 1/3
Putting that all together would be 21/4 x 1/3 which also equals 21/12 by multiplying the denominators and numerators. Then you simplify, dividing it by 3 to equal 7/4 and another simplify to be 1 and 3/4 which is 1.75.
Hope this helps!
7.8 + n = 38.2
n = 38.2 - 7.8
n = 30.4
X - y/2 = 4
x - 4 = y/2
2(x - 4) = y
2x - 8 = y.....so we sub in 2x - 8 in for y in the other equation
3x - 2y = 11
3x - 2(2x - 8) = 11
3x - 4x + 16 = 11
-x = 11 - 16
-x = -5
x = 5
2x - 8 = y
2(5) - 8 = y
10 - 8 = y
2 = y
It has one solution and it is (5,2)
3 7/10 + 5 4/10 = 8 11/10 = 9 1/10
so estimate = 9
actual answer = 9 1/10
yes, his answer is reasonable
