2x + 16 = 3x - 11 because <span>angles B and C are congruent
3x -2x = 16 + 11
x = 27

m<B = </span>2x + 16
m<B = 2(27) + 16
m<B = 56+16
m<B = 70

because B and C are congruent
m<B = m<C = 70
so 

m<A = 180 - ( 70+70)
m<A = 180 - 140
m<A = 180 = 40

answer is <span>B) 40°</span>

40 is the answer. You have to find x by making the two equations equal the same then solve for x. Then plug in x to both equations to get the sum, add them together, then subtract it from 180 to get the sum of the last angle

It costs $3.45 to buy 3/4 lb of chopped walnuts. How much would it cost to purchase 12 lbs of walnuts? Enter the numeric value o
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

$55.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion where x is the cost of 12 lbs of walnuts:

\frac{3.45}{0.75} = \frac{x}{12}

Cross multiply and solve for x:

0.75x = 41.4

x = 55.2

So, for 12 lbs of walnuts, it will cost $55.20

An airline company advertises that 100% of their flights are on time after checking 5 flights from yesterday and finding that th
just olya [345]

a) The population is all of the flights belonging to the particular airline. It's not all flights in general because the airline does not have control over a rival company's flight schedule.

------------------

b) The sample is the 5 airlines the company selected. Ideally the sample should represent the population as much as possible. The larger the sample, the more representative the sample is.

------------------

c) No, the sample is likely <u>not</u> representative because one day of flight does not represent the entire lifetime of all flights done so far for that company. This particular day could have been a very good day with good weather, which may explain why the 5 flights were all on time.

------------------

d) It would be better for the company to select the days at random and sample all of the flights for those particular days chosen. This is a cluster sample. Each cluster is a day. Also, I think more flights should be sampled. Five flights does not seem like enough.
