Answer:
x = 34
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a right angle. This means that the square to the bottom right is 90 degrees. There is also an angle that is 124, but that is a linear pair to the angle on the inside. This means that 124+__=180 degrees
180-124= 56
So now we know 2 angles, which are 90 degrees and 56 degrees. Because we know that the sum of the angles of a triangle equal 180 degrees, we can subtract 90 and 56 from 180 to get our answer, 34.
Answer: its D) 24
Step-by-step explanation:
For your answer i have checked and it is correct it is D) 24
Assuming the man works 8 hours straight without breaks:
25% is the same as 1/4 of something.
So, we just have to figure out what 1/4 (one quarter) of 8 equals.
You can think of it as a pizza cut into 8 slices. One slice is equivalent to one hour for the patrolman.
If we take away 1/2 (half) of the pizza, we have 4 slices, right? Since we start with 8 slices, half of that equals 4 slices. In other words, 50% (half) of the pizza = 4 slices.
Now, 25% (one quarter) of the pizza will equal half of what is left:
If we know that 50%=4 slices (or 4 hours), then 25% must be 2 slices (or 2 hours).
That's it! 25% of 8 hours = 2 hours.
***So, the patrolman spends 2 hours each day completing paperwork.***
Lets check our work:
We know 8 hours (or 8 slices)= 100%
(We know this because
8 slices = 1 whole pizza, or 100% of a pizza. Similarly,
8 hours = 1 whole shift or 100% of the man's shift ).
So
25% + 25% + 25% + 25% = 100%
If 100% of the mans shift = 8 hours:
2+2+2+2 = 8
It checks out!
