Find the value of x in the triangle shown below
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

it is an isosceles triangle as two sides are equal i.e 3.3 so angles opposite to equal sides are also equal so 39 plus 39 plus x = 180°

78 plus x =180

x=180-78

x=102°

Two groups of staff at a store are making flowers to decorate the entrance. If Group A were to do it alone, it would take them 1
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

\dfrac{6750}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of flowers. If Group A were to make x flowers alone, it would take them 10 hours to complete the task, then they make \dfrac{x}{10} flowers in an hour.  If Group B were to make x flowers alone, it would take them 15 hours to complete the task, then they make \dfrac{x}{15} flowers in an hour.

The groups decided to work together. They can make \dfrac{x}{10}+\dfrac{x}{15}=\dfrac{x}{6} together in an hour and it takes them \dfrac{x}{\frac{x}{6}}=6 hours. Group B took a break for 1 hour and 40 minutes (1\dfrac{2}{3} hour), then Group B works

6-1\dfrac{2}{3}=4\dfrac{1}{3} hours.

Thus,

\dfrac{x}{10}\cdot 6-\dfrac{x}{15}\cdot 4\dfrac{1}{3}=300,\\ \\\dfrac{3x}{5}-\dfrac{13x}{45}=300,\\ \\14x=300\cdot 45=13500,\\ \\x=\dfrac{13500}{14}=\dfrac{6750}{7}.
