Answer:

Eva's age is 44 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> Brita's age

y ----> Eva's age

we know that

The sum or their ages 118

so

x+y=118 ----> equation A

The difference in age between Brita and her daughter Eva is 30 years

so

x-y=30 ----> equation B

Solve the system by elimination

Adds equation A and equation B

x+y=118\\x-y=30\\---------\\x+x=118+30\\2x=148\\x=74

<em>Find the value of y</em>

substitute the value of x in any equation

74+y=118\\y=118-74\\y=44

therefore

Eva's age is 44 years

olasank [31]

Answer:

\frac{1}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

as said in the question that the triangle has three equal sides. i.e. this is an equilateral triangle. So,

let us consider one side of the triangle to be x . and 3x( x+x+x) should be equal to 1/5

x+x+x = \frac{1}{5}\\3x=\frac{1}{5}\\x = \frac{1}{5} / 3\\x = \frac{1}{5} * \frac{1}{3}\\x = \frac{1}{15}

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

  c) 28°, 76°, 76°

Step-by-step explanation:

The two remote interior angles sum to 152°. Since they are congruent, their measures are 152°/2 = 76°. The adjacent interior angle is the supplement of 152°, so is 180°-152° = 28°.

The interior angles are 28°, 76°, 76°.  . . . .  matches choice C
