Answer: 600
Step-by-step explanation: Cancel the common factor of 10 to get 600.
If the temperature drops 3 degrees ever hour, and she monitors it for 5 hours, then the equation would be 3 x 5 = 15. So the temperature ultimately has dropped 15 degrees during the past 5 hours.
The numbers are "x" and "y",
we suggest this system of equations.
x+y=24
x-y=15
solve by reduction method.
x+y=24
x-y=15
-----------------
2x=39 ⇒x=39/2=19.5
x+y=24
-(x-y=15)
-------------------
2y=9 ⇒y=9/2=4.5
The numbers are 19.5 and 4.5
To check
19.5+4.5=24
19.5-4.5=15
In a parallelogram opposite angles are congruent, that means:
Angle L = Angle N, replace L & N by they respective value, then
3x-25 = 2x-10 ==> x=15 , Now plug the value of x in any of the 2 sides
3(15) -25 =20°
hence Angle L =- Angle N = 20°
Now let's calculate Angle M. In a parallelogram the adjacent angle are supplementary, that means their sum = 180°, then
Angle N + Angle N = 180°==> Angle M = 180°-20° = 160°
