Answer:

x is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Form the diagram, you can see that UV is parallel to TS, this means that <UVS = < UTS

Given

<UVS = 5x + 38

<UTS = 12x - 28

Since the sum of opposite angle of a quadrilateral is 180 degrees, hence;

5x + 38 + 12x - 28 = 180

Collect like terms

5x + 12x - 28 + 38 = 180

17x + 10 = 180

17x = 180-1-

17x = 170

x = 170/17

x = 10

hence the value of x is 10

Carol has 1 5/8 cups of yogurt to make smoothies. Each smoothie uses 1/3 cup of yogurt. What is the maximum number of smoothies

nikdorinn [45]

Answer: The answer is 4.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that -

The number of cups of yogurt that Carol has to make smoothies is given by

$c_y=1\dfrac{5}{8}=\dfrac{13}{8},$

and the number of cups of yogurt that each smoothies uses is given by

$c_s=\dfrac{1}{3}.$

Let 'n' be the number of smoothies that Carol can make with the available yogurt, then we have

$n\times c_s\leq c_y\\\\\\\Rightarrow n\times \dfrac{1}{3}\leq \dfrac{13}{8}\\\\\\\Rightarrow n\leq\dfrac{39}{8}\\\\\\\Rightarrow n\leq 4\dfrac{7}{8}\\\\\\\Rightarrow n=4.$

Thus, the maximum number of smoothies is 4.
