Answer: A + B = 180

A=B/3

Therefore B/3+B=180

B=135

A=45

Answer:

45° and 135°

Step-by-step explanation:

let one angle be "x" and the other be "y"

Angles which are supplementary total to 180°. This can be represented with the equation:

x + y = 180

If angle "x" is a third of angle "y", the situation is represented with this equation:

(1/3)x = y

Since fractions are difficult to work with, multiply the whole equation by 3.

(1/3)x = y   <= X 3

x = 3y

Use the equations x+y=180 and x=3y.

You can substitute x=3y into x+y=180.

x + y = 180

(3y) + y = 180    <=combine like terms

4y = 180   <=isolate y by dividing both sides by 4

y = 45

Substitute y=45 itno the equation x+y=180 to find x.

x + y = 180

x + 45 = 180   <=isolate x by subtracting 45 from both sides

x = 135

Therefore the angles are 45° and 135°.

Answer:

1120°

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the sum of interior angles formula:

180(n-2)

Where n is the number of sides.

In a nonagon, there are 9 sides, substitute 9 for n:

180(9-2)\\180(7)\\1260

Since our nonagon is a regular nonagon, all 9 angles measure the same, so each angle measures:

\frac{1260}{9} =140

Subtract 140 from 1260:

1260-140=1120

What do I do for this problem
slamgirl [31]

To divide fractions, you need to multiply by the reciprocal. The reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3, which is why the work is incorrect.

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

400 people

Step-by-step explanation:

15 = 12

500 = x

Cross multiply

15x = 12 × 500

Divide both sides by 15

\frac{15x}{15} = \frac{12 * 500}{15}  (* means multiplication if you do not know)

\frac{12 * 500}{15} = 100 × 4= 400 people
