Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the equation:

6n+26= 296

Subtract 26 from both sides:

6n+26-26= 296-26

Simplify:

6n= 270

Divide 6 by each side to get n by itself:

6n/6= 270/6

Simplify:

n= 45

The recipe only needs 60 oz of rice ∴ True, you will have enough, with 12 oz left over.

If a 42.9 ft tall flagpole casts a 253.1 ft long shadow then how long is the shadow that a 6.2 ft tall woman casts?

blsea [12.9K]

We will have to use proportions:
$\frac{42.9}{253.1} = \frac{6.2}{x}$
Cross multiplying we get
$42.9x = 6.2 \times 253.1$
Now divide:
$x = \frac{6.2 \times 253.1}{42.9}$
Solve to tenths place we get
$x = 36.6$
The woman casts a 36.6 ft long shadow.

What is the value of x? <br><br> Enter your answer in the box.<br><br> x =___

Zanzabum

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows an equilateral triangle (because all angles are congruent). All sides in equilateral triangle are congruent, so

$4x-10=5x-22=3x+2$

Solve the equation

$4x-10=5x-22\\ \\4x-10-4x=5x-22-4x\\ \\-10=x-22\\ \\-10+22=x-22+22\\ \\12=x$

Check this value:

$4x-10=4\cdot 12-10=48-10=38\ units \\ \\5x-22=5\cdot 12-22=60-22=38\ units\\ \\3x+2=3\cdot 12+2=36+2=38\ units$

Thus, $x=12$
