m<S= 42°

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 6 = 3x + 24

-6 -6

6x= 3x + 18

-3x -3x

3x = 18

\frac{3x}{3x}  =  \frac{18}{3x}

x= 6

m<S= 6x + 6

m<S= 6(6) + 6

m<S= 42°

Answer:

42°

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Since this quadrilateral is a parallelogram, ∠S is equal to ∠R. Let's represent the situation in terms of equations

6x + 6 = 3x + 24

→ Minus 3x from both sides to collect the 'x' terms

3x + 6 = 24

→ Minus 6 from both sides isolate 3x

3x = 18

→ Divide by 3 on both sides isolate x

x = 6

<em>⇒ The value of x is 6, but this isn't the measurement of ∠S, we need to substitute in x = 6 into the expression 6x + 6</em>

6 (6) + 6 ⇔ 36 + 6 = 42°

14.875/1.5 step by step
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

9.916...

Step-by-step explanation: (The "6" is repeating)

Divide using long division. The whole number portion will be the number of times the denominator of the original fraction divides evenly into the numerator of the original fraction, and the fraction portion of the mixed number will be the remainder of the original fraction division over the denominator of the original fraction.

This gives us a mixed number-fraction: 9 and 11/12.

If we then turn this into a simplified fraction, then it becomes 119/12. Turn <em>that</em> into a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator.

This gives us our answer of 9.916...!!! <em>Hope that helps!</em>

Use a letter to represent the unknown Twenty packs of fruit snacks come in a box. Each pack weighs 6 ounces. Students eat some.
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The students have eaten 72 ounces of fruit snacks.

X = 72 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

There are total 20 packs of fruit snacks

The weight of each pack is 6 ounces.

Let us first find the total weight of the snacks.

Total weight = 6*20

Total weight = 120 ounces

Let X represents the ounces of fruit snacks that students have eaten.

Let Y represents the 48 ounces of fruit snacks left in the box

Total weight = X + Y

120 = X + 48

X = 120 - 48

X = 72 ounces

Therefore, the students have eaten 72 ounces of fruit snacks.

A kite is flying with its string, which is of length 60 metres, taut.The kite is 20 metres vertically above the ground.a)Find th
chubhunter [2.5K]

a) Due to you have a right triangle, in order to calculate the value of d, use the Pythagorean thorem:

d=\sqrt[]{(60m)^2+(20m)^2}=\sqrt[]{4000m^2}\approx63.2m

Hence, the distance d is approximately 63.2m

b) To find the angle of elevation, use the sine function of θ, as follow:

\begin{gathered} \sin \theta=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}=\frac{20m}{60m}=\frac{1}{3} \\ \theta=\sin ^{-1}(\frac{1}{3})\approx19.8 \end{gathered}

Hence, the angle of elevation is approximately 19.8°
