Answer:
The value of x is 17
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the angles in a triangles is 180°
From the question:
In ΔVWX,
m∠V=(4x+3) ∘
m∠W=(x+7) ∘
m∠X=(5x+0) ∘ .
Hence:
m∠V + m∠W + m∠V = 180°
4x + 3 + x + 7 + 5x + 0 = 180°
Collect like terms
4x + x + 5x + 3 + 7 + 0 = 180°
10x + 10 = 180°
Subtract 10 from both sides
10x + 10 - 10 = 180° - 10
10x = 170
Divide both sides by 10
10x/10 = 170/10
x = 17
The value of x is 17
c square

ignore this
the answer is c squared
Answer:
x = -5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
8/(x+3)=1/(x+1)
Using cross products
8*(x+1) = 1*(x+3)
Distribute
8x+8 = x+3
Subtract x from each side
8x-x +8 = x+3-x
7x +8 =3
Subtract 8 from each side
7x+8-8 = 3-8
7x = -5
Divide by 7
7x/7 = -5/7
x = -5/7
Total number of seniors = 55 + 70 = 125
Number of seniors who plan to go to college = 55
Percentage of seniors who plan to go to college = 55/125 x 100 = 44%
Answer: 44%
