(a) * (a+1) = 420
a^2 + a = 420
a^2 + a - 420 = 0
(a+21)(a-20) = 0
a = -21 OR 20
The two integers can be -21 and -20, OR 20 and 21.
There are 2 possibilities for where A can be: one where C is 30° (and A is 60°) and another where C is 60° (and A is 30°). Since it's not specified, we can find both.
30°:
drawing the triangle on a graph, you can see that point C is 4 units above point B, so we know that one side of the triangle is 4. Once we find the other "leg" of the triangle (the one that's parallel to the x-axis), we can just add that value to B to find the x coordinate of A.
If angle C is 30°, using the side ratios of a 30-60-90 triangle, that side is "a√3", and the side we're looking for is a. So, to find a, we just divide 4 by √3. In that case, point A is 4/(√3) units to the right of -2√3. We can rationalize 4/(√3) like this:
(4√3)/3
and then add that to 2√3:
(4√3)/3 + -2√3
(4√3)/3 + (-6√3)/3 = (-2√3)/3
We know that the x-coordinate of A is (-2√3)/3, and the y-coordinate is -1 because B is a right angle and we're just moving horizontally. So, if C is 30° and A is 60°, point A is at ((-2√3)/3, -1).
60°:
in this case, the leg we know is "a" and the leg we're looking for is "a√3". So, we can multiply 4 by √3 to get the distance from B:
4 x √3 = 4√3
4√3 + -2√3 = 2√3
So the x-coordinate of A here is 2√3, and the y-coordinate is still -1: (2√3, -1).

Answer:
#1: 10 bags
#2: 5 1/2 pounds
#3: 5 bags
Step-by-step explanation:
for number one you just count all the x
for number two I added all the pounds of the bags
for number 3 (im not sure if my answer was right for this one) theres only 5 x's on 1/2. so I think the answer is 5.
