Answer:

Sandra need to score at least <u>56%</u> in her fifth test so that her average is 80%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

First 4 test scores = 87%, 92%, 76%,89%

Average targeted = 80%

We need to find the minimum score she needs to make on fifth test to achieve average of at least 80%.

Solution:

Let the minimum score she needs to make in fifth test be 'x'.

Total number of test = 5

Now we know that;

Average is equal to sum of all the scores in the test divided by number of test.

framing in equation form we get;

\frac{87+92+76+89+x}{5}=80

Multiplying both side by 5 we get;

\frac{344+x}{5}\times 5=80\times 5\\\\344+x=400

Subtracting both side by 344 we get;

344+x-344=400-344\\\\x=56\%

Hence Sandra need to score at least <u>56%</u> in her fifth test so that her average is 80%.

a square has a side length of x. A rectangle has a length that is 4 inches longer than the square and a width that is 2 inches s
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Length of the rectangle is = 8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Area of square = Area of the rectangle

According to the question:

Length of the square be 'x'.

Its area = (Side)*(Side) =x^2   ...equation (i)

Length of the rectangle = (x+4)

Width of the rectangle = (x-2)

Area of the rectangle =Length * Width

⇒(x+4)(x-2)=x^2-2x+4x-8

⇒x^2+2x-8          ...equation  (ii)

Equating both the equation as area of both the figure are equal.

⇒ x^2+2x-8=x^2

⇒ 2x-8=0     ...subtracting x^2 both sides

⇒ 2x=8           ...dividing both sides with 2

⇒ x=\frac{8}{2}=4 inches

Plugging the value of x=4 in the length of the rectangle.

We have,

⇒(x+4)=(4+4)=8

So the length of the rectangle = 8 inches.

Can I get help with these too? Thank you!!!!!

For ABC:

The interior angle of C is 180 - 142 = 38
The three interior angles add up to 180°
(2x - 15) + (x - 5) + 38 = 180
3x - 20 + 38 = 180
3x + 18 = 180
3x = 162
x = 54

The measure of angle ABC = x - 5 = 54 - 5 = 49

For JKL:
The interior angle of L is 180 - 100 = 80°
The 3 interior angles add up to 180°
(2x + 27) + (2x - 11) + 80 = 180
4x + 16 + 80 = 180
4x + 96 = 180
4x = 84
x = 21

The measure of angle JKL is 2x - 11 = 2(21) - 11 = 42 - 11 = 31°
