Answer:

60 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's get all fractions equivalent.

1/5 7/12 1/20  We can make the common denominator 60

12/60 35/60 3/60

So these three parts of his week take up 50/60 or 5/6 of his time.  That means he only has 1/6 left.  The question also tells us after all of this he only has 10 hours left, so 1/6 = 10 hours.  If you have 1/6 of something how do you find one whole?  or 6/6.  You multiply it by 6.  so 10*6 = 60, which means every week he works 60 hours.

A translation to the left means subtract 2 from the x- coordinate

A translation down means subtract 4 from the y- coordinate

The diagram shows a right angle.<br> Write an equation to determine the value of x. Solve for x.
kramer

Answer:

8x + (6x + 6) = 90°

x = 6°

Step-by-step explanation:

because it is a right angle, the sum of the angles = 90°

8x + (6x + 6°) = 90°

simplify:

14x + 6° = 90°

subtract 6° from each side:

14x = 84°

divide both sides by 14:

x = 6°
