Answer:
= 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The shape ABCDEF is an irregular polygon.
The sum of the interior angles of any regular or irregular polygon = (n - 2) x 180 (where n is the number of sides of the polygon).
Therefore, the sum of the interior angles of shape ABCDEF = (6 - 2) x 180 = 720°
So to find the value of , we need to add together all the interior angles and equal it to 720, then solve for .
Before we do that, we need to determine angle F.
From inspection, we can see that angle F and 52° are a linear pair. We know that a linear pair of angles add up to 180°, so F + 52 = 180 ⇒ F = 180 - 52 = 128°
Therefore:
A + B + C + D + E + F = 720
(10 - 5) + 108 + (8 - 3) + (14 - 25) + 133 + 128 = 720
Collect like terms:
10 + 8 + 14 - 5 + 108 - 3 - 25 + 133 + 128 = 720
Combine like terms:
32 + 336 = 720
Subtract 336 from both sides:
32 = 384
Divide both sides by 32:
= 12

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the weights of the large and small boxes, respectively. The problem statement gives rise to the system of equations ...
x + y = 85 . . . . . combined weight of a large and small box
70x +50y = 5350 . . . . combined weight of 70 large and 50 small boxes
We can subtract 50 times the first equation from the second to find the weight of a large box.
(70x +50y) -50(x +y) = (5350) -50(85)
20x = 1100 . . . . simplify
x = 55 . . . . . . . divide by 20
Using this in the first equation, we can find the weight of a small box.
55 +y = 85
y = 30 . . . . . . . subtract 55
A large box weighs 55 pounds; a small box weighs 30 pounds.
