Answer:

The actual mass of the book is between  481 . 5 g and 418 . 5 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mass of the book on the scale = 450 g

The percentage error in the scale = 7%

So, the actual mass of the book is 450 g ± 7%

Now, 7 % of  the mass 450 g = \frac{7}{100}  \times 450 = 31.5

⇒ 7% of 450 g = 31.5 g

Now, the Actual mass of the book =  450 g ± 31.5 g

450 g + 31.5 g   = 481 . 5 g

450 g - 31.5 g    = 418 . 5 g

Hence the actual mass of the book is between  481 . 5 g and 418 . 5 g.

The question reminds you of all the tools you need:

It says ...

"Opposite angles are equal."
So the upper right angle is x+40 just like the bottom left,
and the bottom right angle is 3x+20 just like the upper left.

And it says ...

"The sum of all angles is 360°."
You know what each of the four angles is, so you can addum all up,
set the sum equal to 360, find out what number ' x ' is, and then
use that to find the size of every angle.

Answer:

  • a = 17
  • ∠ABC = 78°

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked angles form a linear pair, so have a sum of 180°.

  (4a +10) +(6a) = 180

  10a = 170 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 10

  a = 17 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 10

__

Then the measure of angle ABC is ...

  ∠ABC = 4a +10 = 4(17) +10 = 68 +10 . . . . . substitute 17 for 'a'

  ∠ABC = 78°

Hannah sold 48 flowers in 3 hours at the farmers market if she continues to sell at that rate how many flowers will she sell in
igomit [66]
First, find the rate of flowers bought per hour:
48 / 3 = 16 flowers per hour.
Then, to find the amount bought after 2 hours, multiply the 16 flowers per hour by 2.
16 * 2 = 32.
After 2 hours, she will have bought 32 flowers.
