Answer:
270
Step-by-step explanation:
Jones turns out 200 relays to Smith's 180. You set up that basic ratio and make a proportion out of it.
S/J = 180/200
Now you make your proportion
S/J = x/300
But the 2 ratios much remain the same.
180/200 = x / 300 Multiply both sides by 300
180*300/200 = x Multiply the numerator together.
54000/200 = x Do the division
270 = x
Smith will have turned out 270 relays.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the number be x
so according to the question ur equation is
4x=5<x^2
4x-5=x^2
4-5=x^2/x
-1=x
Answer:
75 boys
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula-Girls:Boys=Girls:Boys
5:6=_:90
90×5=450
450÷6=75
Answer:
27 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The easy way is by remembering the formula (a-b)/2=c, where a is the larger angle, and b is the smallest angle. (90-36)/2=27.
The longer, more drawn out answer goes as follows. See the image to understand the notation I use:
- AOE + BOD + BOA + DOE = 360
- AOE + BOD = 90 + 36 = 126
- BOA + DOE = 360 - AOE - BOD = 234
- Since the sum of a triangle's angles is 180, ODE = (180 - DOE) / 2
- Likewise, OBA = (180 - BOA) / 2
- Since CDE is 180, CDO = 180 - ODE = 180 - (180 - DOE) / 2
- Likewise, CBA is 180, so CBO = 180 - OBA = 180 - (180 - BOA) / 2
- The interior angles of the irregular polygon CBOD add up to 360, so CBO + CDO + BOD + BCD = 360.
- Substituting what we already found, 180 - (180 - BOA)/2 + 180 - (180 - DOE)/2 + 36 + BCD = 360
- Cleaning it all up, we get 180 + (BOA + DOE)/2 + 36 + BCD = 360
- As we found in line 3, BOA + DOE = 234, so substituting that in, 180 + 117 + 36 + BCD = 360
- Finally, solving for BCD (360 - 36 - 117 - 180) we get our answer, 27
Note: The long drawn out method shown above is a way to derive the formula for the secant theorem. You do not need to use this method every time. Just remember, large angle minus small angle, all divided by 2. That is it.
The answer is C. 5 1/2 hours. Hope this helped. :)
