Oh my. ALEKS brings back terrible memories, but I hope you managed to do this. You should’ve drawn a line splitting the angle perfect in two. I’m not exactly certain how to use the tool as I’ve never really gotten to to that topic, but I hope you did well. :)

A girl scout troop sold cookies. If the girls sold 5 more boxes the second week than they did the first, and if they double the

valina [46]

Answer:

Boxes sold first week = 104

Boxes sold second week =x+5= 104+5=109

Boxes sold third week = 109 times 2= 218

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of boxes sold in first week

the girls sold 5 more boxes the second week

So number of boxes sold in second week is x+5

they double the sales of the second week for the third week

So number of boxes sold in third week is 2 (x+5)

Total boxes sold is 431

$x+x+5+2(x+5)=431$

$x+x+5+2x+10=431$

$4x+15=431$

subtract 15 from both sides

$4x=416$

divide by 4 on both sides

$x=104$

Boxes sold first week = 104

Boxes sold second week =x+5= 104+5=109

Boxes sold third week = 104 times 2= 218

One bag of rice that weighs 4.5 pounds will have enough rice if a recipe calls for 60 ounces of rice. (1 pound = 16 ounces)

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the bag of rice is 4.5 pounds, and there are 16 ounces per pound, multiply 16 x 4 = 64. Now what is half of 16? 8! So divide 5/8 = 0.625.

So in the end, yes the bag of rice will have enough rice. Here's my math:

16 x 4 = 64

5 / 8 = 0.625

So, you will have 64.625 ounces of rice which is plenty for your recipe!

I really hope this helps you!

Help find the value of x

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

x = 82

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom angle is the same as the angle next to x + 6

A straight angle is 180 degrees.

You add the given angles: (x + 6) + (x + 10) = 2x + 16

180 = 2x + 16

- 16 -16

164 = 2x

x = 82
