A Springer Spaniel weighs 20 kilograms 490grams. A Cocker Spaniel weighs 7,590 grams less than a Springer Spaniel. A Newfoundlan
d weighs 52 kilograms 656 grams more than a Cocker Spaniel. What is the difference, in grams, between the weights of the Newfoundland and the Springer Spaniel?
It is important that the units of measurement for the masses will be expressed in one unit only. For the purpose of illustration in this problem, we express the masses in kilograms. Hence, the mass of Springer Spaniel is equal to 20.49 kg. With this concept, we determine the mass of Cocker Spaniel.
Mass of Cocker Spaniel = 20.49 kg - 7.59 kg = 12.9 kg
From this calculated mass, we determine the mass of the Newfoundland,
Mass of Newfoundland = 12.9 kg + 52.656 kg = 65.556 kg
The difference of the weights of Newfoundland and Springer Spaniel, D = 65.556 kg - 20.49 kg = 45.066 kg
There are 180 degrees in a triangle, so what you want to do from there is make an equation 35 + 65 + 2x = 180 from there add like terms 100 + 2x = 180 then subtract 100 from 180 to get 2x alone 100 - 100 + 2x = 180 - 100 2x = 180 from there divide 2 from 180 and get the answer x = 78 degrees
