0.14x + 0.07(280-x) = 0.08*280

0.14x + 19.6-0.07x = 22.4

0.07x + 19.6 = 22.4

0.07x = 2.8
x = 2.8 / 0.07 = 40
 x = 40 pounds of Soybean
280 -40 = 240 of cornmeal

What % = goes in the % spot

of 60 = goes in the of spot

is 35 = goes in the is spot

  35          x

--------- = ---------

  60         100

Cross multiply:

60 * x = 60x        35 * 100 = 3500

60x = 3500

Divide by 60 to get x by itself.

3500 / 60 = 58.33

Put the percent sign after it:

58.33%

Polygon LMNOP was transformed to create polygon L'M'N'O'P'.2 pentagons have identical side lengths and angle measures. The point
algol13

The Angle that would correspond to Angle N after the transformation is; Angle N'

<h3>How to Interpret Transformations?</h3>

A polygon is defined as a two-dimensional geometric figure that has a finite number of sides. The sides of a polygon are made of straight line segments connected to each other end to end. Thus, the line segments of a polygon are called sides or edges.

In the transformation of  LMNOP to create polygon L'M'N'O'P', we have that;

L corresponds to L'

M corresponds to M'

N corresponds to N'

O corresponds to O'

P corresponds to P'

Thus, we can conclude that Angle N would correspond to Angle N'

 if angle RZT=110, angle RZS=3s, and angle TZS=8s, what are angle RZS and angle TZS?
skelet666 [1.2K]
8s-3s=5s
5s=110
Divide both sides by 5 => s=22
RZS = 3s = 3(22) = 66
TZS= 8s = 8(22) = 176
