Okay so we have to first find the total.
8+3+5= 16 candies
7+4+9= 20 drinks
Since she wants to get a yellow candy and any drink but orange, put that information as a fraction.
8/16= 50% or 1/2
11/20= 55% (By the way you get 11 because of the 7 red and 4 blue).
And that's your answer!
Hope this helped and good luck! ^=^

Fine the value of the x in the triangle shown below.
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

x=28

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a triangle must add to 180 degrees

Therefore,

79+73+x=180

Combine like terms by adding 79 and 73

152+x=180

To solve for x, get x by itself. Since 152 is being added to x, subtract 152 from both sides. This will cancel the 152, and leave x by itself.

152-152+x=180-152

x=28

So, x is equal to 28 degrees
