Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

What we need here is to know how many of 1 inch are there in 40 inches

This is straightforward, what we need to do here is to imagine having to mark 1 inch length on the ribbon using a mark of a scissors.

What we will notice is that we need to make 40 marks to have exhausted the entire length of the ribbon.

This is obtained by dividing the total 40 by 1 which is 40

2 angles of a triangle are the same size. the 3rd is 3 times as large as the 1st​
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

36°, 36° and 108°

Step-by-step explanation:

let the equal angles be x then the third angle = 3x

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°, thus

x + x + 3x = 180, that is

5x = 180 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 36

and 3x = 3 × 36 = 108

The 3 angles are 36°, 36° and 108°

Solve the system of equations<br> 12x-5y=-20<br> y=x+4<br><br> x=_______<br><br> y=_______
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

x = 0

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

12x - 5y = -20

y = x + 4

Substitute x + 4 for y in the first equation

12x - 5(x + 4) = -20

Expand the bracket

12x -5 X x - 5 x 4 = -20

12x - 5x - 20 = -20

7x - 20 = -20

Add 20 to both sides to eliminate -20 on the left side

7x - 20 + 20 = -20 + 20

7x = 0

Divide both sides by 7 to isolate x

7x/7 = 0/7

x = 0

Substitute 0 for x in either equation to get y

Using equation 2, we have

y = x + 4

= 0 + 4

= 4

x = 0

y = 4
