Given that Noemi makes a bracelet that averages $0.60 per bead, we need to write an equation that models this average bead cost. This can be found by taking the total cost of the beads and dividing it by the number of beads used.

1. The total cost of the beads may be found by multiplying the price of each type of bead by the number used, and then adding these values together. Thus:

Total Cost = 0.75x + 3*0.3

= 0.75x + 0.9

2. Total number of beads = x + 3

3. Thus, the average cost is:

(0.75x + 0.9)/(x + 3)

4. Using the value of the average cost per bead given to us ($0.60), we can now write up the full equation:

0.6 = (0.75x + 0.9)/(x + 3)

What is the measure of AngleDCF? Three lines extend from point C. The space between line C D and C E is 75 degrees. The space be
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

  ∠DCF = 129°

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that line CE is between lines CD and CF.

The angle sum theorem applies:

  ∠DCF = ∠DCE +∠ECF

  ∠DCF = 75° +54°

  ∠DCF = 129°

Igoryamba

Answer:

$1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 8 pints in a gallon so divide 12 and 8 to find the cost of 1 pint

Reduce the expression, if possible, by cancelling the common factors.

Solve<br> 7x+2y=16<br> 5x-2y=20<br> x= y= <br><br> (3 marks)
sasho [114]
X=3 and y=-5/2. Here is why, when we do 7x+5x that gives us 12x. -2y+2y=0 and then we have 16 plus 20 which gives us 36. Now we gotta isolate x which right now we have 12x=36. Therefore divide by 12 to get x alone, which 36 divided by 12 is equal to 3. X=3. Plug it back into the equation, 7(3)=21 plus 2y=16. Subtract 21 from both sides 16-21 is equal to -5. Then 2y=-5 divide by 2 on both sides you will have -5/2=y or y=-5/2. Hope this helps!

the diagram shows a star made by surrounding a regular octagon with triangles, explain why angle a must be 135 degrees
horsena [70]

Answer:

From the sum of angles on a straight line, given that the rotation of each triangle attached to the sides of the octagon is 45° as they move round the perimeter of the octagon, the angle a which is supplementary to the angle turned by the triangles must be 135 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the triangles are eight in number we have;

1)  (To simplify), we consider the five triangles on the left portion of the figure, starting from the bottom-most triangle which is inverted upside down

2) We note that to get to the topmost triangle which is upright , we count four triangles, which is four turns

3) Since the bottom-most triangle is upside down and the topmost triangle, we have made a turn of 180° to go from bottom to top

4) Therefore, the angle of each of the four turns we turned = 180°/4 = 45°

5) When we extend the side of the octagon that bounds the bottom-most triangle to the left to form a straight line, we see the 45° which is the angle formed between the base of the next triangle on the left and the straight line we drew

6) Knowing that the angles on a straight line sum to 180° we get interior angle in between the base of the next triangle on the left referred to above and the base of the bottom-most triangle as 180° - 45° = 135°.
