Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of pounds of oranges in the full box.

On a field trip, students ate 3/10 of a box of oranges. This means that the students ate 3/10 × x = 3x/10 pounds of oranges.

Altogether they ate 6 pounds of oranges. This means that

3x/10 = 6

3x = 6×10

3x = 60

x = 60/3 = 20

The full box contained 20 pounds of oranges

Each tenth of the model is 2 pounds because a tenth of 20 pounds is 20/10 = 2 pounds

What is the value of y? Enter your answer in the box. y = An isosceles triangle with vertices labeled A, B, and C. Side B C is t
masha68 [24]

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

An isosceles triangle ABC with AB = AC.

∠A = (4y+10)\°

∠B = 75\°

∠C = (3x)\°

We know that, for an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite equal sides are also equal to each other.

Therefore, ∠B = ∠C

⇒ 75 = 3x

⇒ x=\frac{75}{3}=25

∴ ∠C = 3\times 25=75°

Now, the sum of all the interior angles of a triangle is always 180°.

\angle A + \angle B + \angle C=180\\(4y+10)+75+75=180\\4y+10+150=180\\4y+160=180\\4y=180-160\\4y=20\\y=\frac{20}{4}=5

Therefore, the value of 'y' is 5.
