Answer:
b. 14
Step-by-step explanation:
X = 61 degrees.
Find the number of degrees in a pentagon by using the following formula:
(number of sides - 2)180 = 540.
There are 540 degrees in a pentagon.
Since we know four of the angles, we can subtract them from 540 to get the fifth angle.
540-138-144-107-90 = 61
Hope this helped =)
Well, since you have the value of b, the first thing you want to do is substitute that value in for b.
5a - 10(3) = 45
10*3 = 30
5a - 30 = 45
Now, to get the variable by itself (a) you have to + 30 because you have to reverse the subtraction.
5a = 75
Now, you divide by 5 to finish getting a by itself.
a = 15
Hope this helps!
Thing 1
A. You can set up a proportion by dividing how much of something there is by the original. (This probably doesn't make much sense but I hope you can understand it from the answer to the problem below!)
B.First, do 168/21 to see how many more times he put flour in.
168/21= 8
Then to find out the milk in the same proportion do the number (in this case 8) times the original of the thing you wan to find out.
8x9=72
72 tablespoons of milk are needed for 168 cups of flour in this adapted recipe.
Thing 2
24/36=8y
To solve any equation, you want to have letters on one side and numbers on the other, so...
-8 from both sides...
(24/36)-8=y
24/36=0.6
y=(0.6-8)
y=-7.4
Hope this helps :)
