In math, "of" almost always means "times".
So your question is: 3/7 times (the number) = 9
Multiply each side of that equation by 7 : 3 times (the number) = 63
Divide each side by 3 : <em> The number = 21</em>
Answer:
1.5974
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
There were 6 benches in park 1 and 18 benches in park 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the no of benches in Park 1 and y in park 2.
Given that there are 12 more benches in park 2 than 1
Writing this in equation form, we have y = x+12 ... i
Next is if 2 benches were transferred from park 2 to park 1, then we have
x+2 in park 1 and y-2 in park 2.
Given that y-2 = twice that of x+2
Or y-2 = 2x+4 ... ii
Rewrite by adding 2 to both sides of equation ii.
y = 2x+6 ... iii
i-iii gives 0 = -x+6
Or x =6
Substitute in i, to have y = 6+12 = 18
Verify:
Original benches 6 and 18.
18 = 6+12 hence I condition is satisfied
18-2 = 2(6+2)
II is also satisfied.
The measures of all of the interior angles of the triangle are 70 degrees, 70 degrees and 40 degrees
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that exterior angle of triangle is 140 degrees
The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two non-adjacent interior angles
Given that adjacent angles are congruent
Let one of the non adjacent interior angles be "x"
x + x = 140
2x = 140
x = 70
So the two interior angles are 70 degrees and 70 degrees
Let us find the third interior angle
The angle sum property of a triangle states that the interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180 degrees
70 + 70 + third angle = 180
third angle = 180 - 70 - 70
third angle = 180 - 140
third angle = 40 degrees
Thus the measures of all of the interior angles of the triangle are 70 degrees, 70 degrees and 40 degrees
