Yves bought 420 tropical fish for a museum display. He bought 6 times as many parrotfish as angelfish. How many of each type of

fish did he buy?
Which is a system of equations to model the problem if x represents the number of angelfish Yves bought and y represents the number of parrotfish he bought?


A.
x + y = 6
y = 420x

B.
x + 6y = 420
y = 6x

C.
x – y = 420
y = 6x

D.
x + y = 420
y = 6x

Given:
420 tropical fishes
angel fish = x
parrot fish = 6x

x + y = 420
y = 6x          Choice D.

x + y = 420
y = 6x 

x + 6x = 420 
7x = 420 
x = 420 / 7
x = 60 number of angelfish

y = 6x
y = 6(60)
y = 360 number of parrot fish

The base of a solid oblique pyramid is an equilateral triangle with a base edge length of 18 inches What is the height of the tr
ExtremeBDS [4]
The height of the triangular base of the pyramid is calculated through the equation,
                                        h = (cos x)(18 in)
where h is height and x is half of the angle of the triangle. Since the triangle is equilateral, the value of  x is 30°. Substituting,
                                        h = (cos 30°)(18 in)
                                        h = 15.59 in
Thus, the height of the base is approximately 15.59 inches.

What is the measure of an angle if the measures of its two adjacent supplementary angles add up to 100°?
Sindrei [870]
<h3>Answer:  130</h3>

Explanation:

Let x be the unknown angle we want to find.

Let y be adjacent and supplementary to x. This means x+y = 180

Let z also be adjacent and supplementary to x. So x+z = 180 also

Subtracting the two equations leads to y-z = 0 and y = z. So effectively we've proven the vertical angle theorem.

Since the supplementary angles to x add to 100, we know that y+z = 100. Plug in y = z and solve for z

y+z = 100

z+z = 100

2z = 100

z = 100/2

z = 50

Therefore,

x+z = 180

x+50 = 180

x = 180-50

x = 130
