Answer:

x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this is an isosceles triangle the angle 2x+3 is the same as the missing angle. The angles in triangles add up to 180 degrees. 180-110=70.

Because the two angles are the same you can divide 70 by 2 to get 35.

35=2x+3.

35-3=2x+3-3

32=2x

32/2=2x/2

16=x

Since the triangle is an isosceles triangle, it’s base angles are equal which means two angles are 2x+3 and other angle is 110
Then
2x+3+2x+3+110=180(sum of angles of triangle)
4x+6=180-110
4x+6=70
4x=70-6
4x=64
x=64/4
x=16

The ratio of boys to girls in a school are 2:3 there are 1100 pupils in the school how many are boys ?

uranmaximum [27]

First of all you do 2+3=5 then 1100/5 is 220
so 2*220=440
3*220= 660
so that means 440 boys and 660 girls
it depends on which order the boys and girls are put

Sarawong is carrying six pages of math homework and four pages of english homework. a gust of wind blows the pages out of his ha

Eduardwww [97]

The sample space of the experiment (i.e. the total number of ways he can pick 7 random pages out of a total of 6 + 4 = 10 pages) is given by:

$^{10}C_7=120$

If he picks at least 5 pages of maths homework, this means that he either picked 5 pages or 6 pages of maths homework.

The number of ways he can pick 5 or 6 maths homework is given by:

$^6C_5+{ ^6C_6}=6\times1=6$

Therefore, the probability that he recovers at least 5 pages of his math homework is given by:

$\frac{6}{120} = \frac{1}{20}$

What is the mean of the data set? 12 18 26 12 32 A. 12 B. 18 C. 20 D. 22

Alexeev081 [22]

The mean of n numbers is the sum of these numbers divided by n.

$12, 18, 26, 12, 32 \\ \Downarrow \\
\hbox{the mean: } \frac{12+18+26+12+32}{5}=\frac{100}{5}=20$

The mean of the data set is 20.

How many 1/3 cup servings are in a box of cereal that contains 7 5/6 cups of cereal? Show you work? Please

Slav-nsk [51]

First off, let's convert the mixed fraction to "improper", and then check "how many times does 1/3 go into 7 and 5/6?"

$\bf \stackrel{mixed}{7\frac{5}{6}}\implies \cfrac{7\cdot 6+5}{6}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{47}{6}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{\quad \frac{47}{6}\quad }{\frac{1}{3}}\implies \cfrac{47}{6}\cdot \cfrac{3}{1}\implies \cfrac{47}{2}\implies 23\frac{1}{2}$
