Answer: x=72, y=26
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a line is 180°, we can do:
2x+10+y=180
2x+y=170
Since a triangle is 180° also, we can do:
x+y+82=180
x+y=98
If we subtract x+y=98 from 2x+y=170, we get:
2x+y=170
x+y=98
x=72
If we insert x=72 into x+y=98, we get:
72+y=98
y=26
We can check our answer by inserting x=72 and y=26 into x+y+82=180
72+26+82=180
98+82=180
180=180
Answer:
1.40 litres; order of operations
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A:
First, write it out in the full form.
#1 (.75 litres of blackberry juice + .60 litres of blueberry juice + .25 litres of guava juice) - .20 litres drank = 1.4 litres of juice remaining in the jar
Part B:
Removing the wordy descriptions from the expression, we get the following:
#2 (.75 + .60 +.25) - .20
or, by adding the numbers in the parentheses first:
#3 (1.60) - .20 = 1.40
#4 1.40 litres of juice left in the jar
The order of operations was used in moving from step #2 to step #3, as operations within the parentheses were conducted before subtracting the .20 litres of juice which were drank.
X miles per hour - <span> speed of the boat in still water
(x - 2) - speed up the river
(x + 2) - speed down the river
</span>
=
30 * (x + 2) = 38 * (x - 2)
30x + 60 = 38x - 76
- 8x = - 136
x =
17 miles per hour - <span>
the speed of the boat in still water.</span>
