10 x 10 = 100
20 + 20 + 20 + 20 +20 = 100
4 x 25 = 100
<h3>Answer: 3x + x = 67</h3><h3>To solve: 4x = 67</h3><h3> /4. /4</h3><h3>x = 16.75</h3><h3></h3>
Let the time = x
Distance = Speed x time
One train is 75x, the other train 85x
Add together to equal total distance:
75x + 85x = 384
Simplify:
160x = 384
Divide both sides by 160:
x = 384 / 160
x = 2.4 hours
Answers:
x = 72
y = 83
============================================================
Explanation:
Angle VFG is 50 degrees. The angle adjacent to this is angle EFG which is 180-50 = 130 degrees.
Angle HDW is 77 degrees. The supplementary angle adjacent to this is 180-77 = 103 degrees which is angle EDH.
Pentagon EFGHD has the following five interior angles
- E = x
- F = 130
- G = 170
- H = 65
- D = 103
Note that angles F = 130 and D = 103 were angles EFG and EDH we calculated earlier.
For any pentagon, the interior angles always add to 180(n-2) = 180(5-2) = 180*3 = 540 degrees.
This means,
E+F+G+H+D = 540
x+130+170+65+103 = 540
x+468 = 540
x = 72
---------------------------------------
Now focus your attention on triangle THS
We see that the interior angles are
The angle H is 65 degrees because it's paired with the other 65 degree angle shown. They are vertical angles.
For any triangle, the angles always add to 180
T+H+S = 180
y+65+32 = 180
y+97 = 180
y = 180-97
y = 83
