Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total: 73
dogs: x
cats: 2x+10
2x+10+x=73
3x+10=73
3x=63
x=21
dogs: x
dogs: 21
cats: 2x+10
cats: 52
Check answer:
cats+dogs=73
52+21=73
There's no need for a system of linear equations if you were to solve a real life problem like this. In calculus, they don't give a rat about HOW you get your answer to an easy algebra 1 equation, as long as you used one of the correct methods and got the right answer.
Best of luck my friend. :)
40/100 is just a bigger example of 4/10
<u>Given</u>:
Given that the isosceles trapezoid JKLM.
The measure of ∠K is 118°
We need to determine the measure of each angle.
<u>Measure of ∠L:</u>
By the property of isosceles trapezoid, we have;



Thus, the measure of ∠L is 62°
<u>Measure of ∠M:</u>
By the property of isosceles trapezoid, we have;

Substituting the value, we get;

Thus, the measure of ∠M is 62°
<u>Measure of ∠J:</u>
By the property of isosceles trapezoid, we have;

Substituting the value, we get;

Thus, the measure of ∠J is 118°
Hence, the measures of each angles of the isosceles trapezoid are ∠K = 118°, ∠L = 62°, ∠M = 62° and ∠J = 118°
