Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Nick gets amount N, Angad amount A, and June amount J.

Here's what we know:

A+N+J=140

A=2*N

N=3*J.

Let's plug these values in.

N=3*J, so A+N+J=140 can now be A+3*J+J=140.

A=2*N, and N=3*J, so A=2*3*J=6*J. Then, A+3*J+J=140 is now 6*J+3*J+J=140, so 10*J=140 and J=14. N = 3*J=42 and A=2*N=84. Checking this, 14+42+84=140, so we are good to go!

The area of rectangular field is 1440 sq meters and perimeter is 152 metre. Out of length or breadth which one is to be decrease
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

If Length is decreased by 10% then it would become a square.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Area of Rectangular field = 1440 sq. m

Perimeter = 152 m.

We need to find which one needs to be decreased by what percentage to make it a square.

Solution:

Let length be denoted by 'l'.

Also Let width be denoted by 'w'.

Now we know that Area of rectangular field is given by Length times width.

framing in equation form we get;

l\times w = 1440 \ \ \ \ equation\ 1

Also we know that Perimeter of rectangular field is given by 2 times sum of  Length and width.

framing in equation form we get;

2(l+w) =152\\\\l+w =\frac{152}{2}\\\\l+w=76\\\\l=76-w \ \ \ \ equation \ 2

Now Substituting equation 2 in equation 1 we get;

l\times w =1440\\\\(76-w)w=1440\\\\76w-w^2=1440\\\\w^2-76w+1440 =0

Now we will find the root by factorizing the same we get;

w^2-36w-40w+1440=0\\\\w(w-36)-40(w-36)=0\\\\(w-36)(w-40) =0 \\

Now solving for each to find the value of 'w' we get;

w-36 =0\\\\w=36\\\\also \\\\w-40=0\\\\w=40

So We can say that;

Width = 36 m and Length = 40 m

Now we need to find out of length or breadth which one is to be decreased by what percentage to make it a square.

We know that square has all sides same.

So from the data we found we can say that if length is decreased by 4 then length and breadth(width) both will be equal.

So to find percentage decreased we will divide length to be decreased by total length and then multiply by 100.

framing in equation form we get;

percentage decreased = \frac{4}{40}\times 100 = 10\%

Hence If Length is decreased by 10% then it would become a square.

Solve the equation: <br><br> 9 (x − 9)−3 = −4 (2x + 4)<br><br> 4<br><br> -4<br><br> 100<br><br> 68
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Applying BODMAS here;

We first solve what is in the brackets:

9x - 81 -3 = -8x - 16

We then put the like terms together:

9x + 8x = -16 + 81 + 3

We then do the addition:

17x = -16 + 84

We then do the subtraction:

17x = 68

Simplifying this gives:

x = \frac{68}{17} = 4

In a scale drawing a plane has a length of 35 centimeters. The actual length of the plane is 87.5 feet. What is the scale of the
ICE Princess25 [194]
If 35 cm  represent the length of the plane which is 87.5 ft of the actual plane length. let 1 cm be x ft. 
35 cm = 87.5 ft
1 cm = x ft
cross multiply this and the answer is 2.5 ft. Therefore, the scale drawing is 1 cm is 2.5 ft.

Help me asap please how to find the measure of angle c​
Trava [24]

Answer: Angle C measures 132.5 degrees

Step-by-step explanation: What we have here is an irregular polygon with six sides. Two sides have been identified as 90 and 130. And the other sides are yet unknown. We shall start by computing the total sum of the interior angles of the six sided polygon.

The formulae for computing the interior angles of a polygon is given as (n - 2) x 180,

Where n stands for the number of sides of the polygon

Therefore in this diagram, sum of the interior angles equals

(6 - 2) x 180

= 4 x 180

= 720 degrees

That means the addition of all the given angles equals 720. This can be expressed as follows;

90 + 130 + (x + 10) + x + x + x = 720

220 + x + 10 + 3x = 720

By collecting like terms we now have

4x = 720 - 220 - 10

(Note that if a positive value crosses to the other side of an equation it becomes negative and vice versa)

4x = 490

Divide both sides of the equation by 4

x = 122.5

Therefore, since angle C is (x + 10)

C = 122.5 + 10

C = 132.5 degrees
