1/2.54 = 90/x
Cross multiply
(1)x = (2.54)(90)
x would equal 228.6
The answer would be 90 in/ 228.6 cm.
Answe
Step-by-step explanation:
The interior angles of a triangle add up to 180. We know from the photo that there is a 90° angle and an 18° angle, and 90-18 is 72, so the other interior angle is 72°. The question is asking you to find the value of side x, so you'll need to use sin.
sin (72°) = x/16
x ≈ 15.2
Short Answer: y = 36°
Remark
What an interesting question!! The first thing you have to do is find out what the interior angle of a regular pentagon is. After you have done that, you can calculate y.
Method.
The exterior angles of a regular figure add up to 360°.
Step One
Find out the size of the exterior angles of a regular pentagon.
There are 5 such angles. They add up to 360°
5x = 360 Divide by 5
x = 360 / 5
x = 72°
Step Two
Find out the value of the interior angles of a pentagon.
Method
The interior and exterior angles add up to 180°
Exterior Angle + Interior Angle = 180°
Exterior angle = 72 degrees
72° + Interior Angle = 180° Subtract 72 from both sides.
Interior Angle = 180° - 72°
Interior Angle = 108°
Step Three
Solve for y.
There are 3 tiles each with an angle of 108° that are placed together. So y + 3 interior angles = 360°
y + 3*interior angles = 360°
y + 3*108 = 360
y + 324 = 360 Subtract 324 from both sides.
y = 360 - 324
y = 36°
y = number of days
35.50 + 18.25 y = 163.25
18.25 y = 163.25 - 35.50
18.25y = 127.75
y = 127.75 / 18.25
y = 7
so Martin has hired the machine for 8 days
( first day paid 35.50), then 7 days for 18.25
Answer:
20 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the total allowance of fat
16 grams is 80% of his total allowance
x * 80% = 16
Change percent to a decimal
x *.8 = 16
Divide each side by .9
.8x/.8 = 16/.8
x = 20
