So it is an isosceles triangle that means that the bottom two angles are equal...
so
40 = 5x
divide both sides by 5 and you get 8
now the triangle angles add up to 180
we make an equation out of it...
(2y + 20 ) + ( 5(8)) + 40 = 180
2y + 20 + 40 + 40 = 180
combine like terms
2y + 100 = 180
so subtract 100 from both sides
2y = 80
divide by 2 to isolate the variable
y = 40
You are correct!!! :)
2x + 2y = 6 . . . . . (1)
x + 3y = -1 . . . . . (2)
(1) x 3 => 6x + 6y = 18 . . . . . (3)
(2) x 2 => 2x + 6y = -2 . . . . . (4)
(3) - (4) => 4x = 20
x = 20/4 = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is in the image above
Answer:
38.25 packages
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of guests = 459
Each guest gets 1 muffin
Muffin comes in packages of 12
Hence,
The number of packages is calculated as:
459/12 = 38.25 packages
Hence, 38.25 packages are needed so there are enough muffins for every guest.
