Answer:
34
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the straight line is equal to 180°, and the three angles that make it are (x+12),100°, and x. We can use the equation 180=(x+12)+100+x to find x.
180=(x+12)+100+x
We can remove the parentheses and combine x plus x to 2x.
180=100+2x+12
100+12=112
so
180=112+2x
-112 -112
68=2x
÷2 ÷2
34=x
579 adults and 190 children I’m pretty sure this is right
Id say it's choice b top right.
Okay, so since both y values share the same number, let's add both equations so the y values cancel out leaving us to solve for x.
10x+(-5x)=5x
7y+(-7y)=0
1+24=25
Now we have 5x=25
divide both sides by 5 and we have x=5
Now that we know x=5, we can plug it into one of the problems to find y.
Let's do 10(5) +7y=1
50+7y=1 subtract 5 and we get 7y=-49
divide -7 from both sides and we get y=-7
so there you have it x=5 and y=-7
Answer: 36 whole sausages by the end of the contest.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that he ate 27 sausages in 11 minutes, then the rate at which he ates sausages is:
R = (27 sausages)/(11 minutes) = 2.45 sausage/min
So if he ate at this rate for 15 minutes, the total number of sausages eaten by the end is:
Total number = (2.45 sausage/min)*15min = 36.8 sausages
(where we are counting again the 27 sausages that he ate in the first 11 mins)
If we only count the number of whole sausages eaten, he ate 36 whole sausages.
