Answer:

D.) Elliott has 212 cans, Amelia has 45 cans

Step-by-step explanation:

257 = x + (5x - 12)

257 = 6x - 13

+13           +13

270 = 6x

/6        /6

45 = x     (the amount of Amelia's cans)


257 - 45 = 212  (the amount of Elliott's cans)


please rate and thank : )

You would -a to get 6x=5-a then divide by 6 which you would get your final answer which is x=5-a/6

Please solve the following questions!!

Answer:

3. The missing angle is 56°

4. x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

3.

We know sum of 3 angles in a triangle is 180°.

Looking at the top triangle, we can figure out the third angle. Let third angle be x:

85 + 35 + x = 180

120 + x = 180

x = 180 - 120

x = 60

<u>The angle "x" and the angle that is missing from the "bottom" triangle in the figure, are vertical angles, and hence, are EQUAL.</u>

So the bottom triangle now has 2 angles, 60 and 64 (given). Let the third angle be y(the one with a question mark). So we can write:

60 + 64 + y = 180

124 + y = 180

y = 180 - 124

y= 56

This is the missing angle.

4.

10x - 5 AND 8x + 9 are vertical angles. They ARE EQUAL.

Thus we can write the equation:

(10x-5) =  (8x+9)

10x-8x=9+5

2x=14

x=14/2

x=7

So x = 7
