The answer is C.
because 2 of the angles are congruent, and one of the sides is, so you use AAS to prove that the triangles are congruent. and then by the def. of congruence, the other sides are congruent also
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2x = 1/7x + 5
1/2x - 1/7x = 5
7/14x - 2/14x = 5
5/14x = 5
x = 5 * 14/5
x = 14
Answer:
The salt concentration of the mixed solution = 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
First assuming that the concentration of salt given is on a vol% basis.
First solution has 0.7 gallon of 5% salt
Amount of salt in this solution = 5% × 0.7 = 0.035 gallon
Second solution has 0.3 gallon of 22% salt
Amount of salt in this solution = 22% × 0.3 = 0.066 gallon
Total amount of salt in the resulting solution = 0.035 + 0.066 = 0.101 gallon
Total volume of the resulting solution = 0.7 + 0.3 = 1.00 gallon
Concentration of the mixture of salt = (0.101/1) = 0.101 = 10.1% = 10% to the nearest percent
Hope this Helps!!!
9x + 5 = 68
9x = 63
x = 7
Cole put seven books on each shelf.
We are going to make simultaneous equations.
x will be our $3 ice cream and y will be our $5 ice cream
Equation1 ---- x + y = 50 (the sum of all the ice creams they sell)
Equation 2 ---- 3x + 5y = 180 Sum of all the $3 and $5 ice creams is $180
Since we can't solve for both variables we will put one of the variables in terms of the other.
Take x+y=50 and subtract y from both sides. (I could have done subtracted x - it did not matter). Now we have x= ₋ y +50 (negative y +50)
Now I am going to take equation 2 and replace the x with -y +50
3 (-y +50) + 5y = 180
Now I will use the distributive law on the 3 and what's in the parentheses:
-3y + 150 + 5y = 180
Now I will combine like terms (the -3y and the 5y)
2y + 150 = 180
Now subtract 150 from both sides of the equation
2y = 30
Divide both sides by 2
and get y= 15 They sold 15 ice creams that cost $5 each
Since equation 1 is x+y=50 we can replace y with 15
x + 15 = 50 Now subtract 15 from both sides x = 35
Since x represents the $3 ice creams, they sold 35 of those.
Check:
35 X 3 = $105
15 x 5 = + <u>75
</u> $180
