Answer: B) 4 & 1/6
Nice work on getting the correct answer.
============================================================
Explanation:
x is opposite the marked acute angle
5 is opposite the corresponding acute angle
So x and 5 are proportional to each other. We can form the ratio x/5
Similarly, 10 and 12 are proportional to one another. We can form the ratio 10/12.
Set those ratios equal to each other and solve for x
x/5 = 10/12
12x = 5*10 ... cross multiply
12x = 50
x = 50/12 ...... divide both sides by 12
x = (25*2)/(6*2)
x = 25/6
x = (24+1)/6
x = 24/6 + 1/6
x = 4 + 1/6
x = 4 & 1/6 which shows why <u>choice B</u> is the answer.
Side note: 25/6 = 4.167 approximately
Answer:
X + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no definite working. The first container is what I call the base because everything is a little above the first container, X. They are basically asking you what is the total of the four jars bigger than X. In other words how many steps more to climb before the top floor while you are on the first step. So then you add the other numbers like 0.5 etc which will give you X +3. Hope it helps.
