Let x be the mass of the paperbacks and y be the mass of the textbook.
20x + 9y = 44.4 ----------- (1)
25x + 10y = 51 -------------(2)
(1) x 10:
200x + 90y = 444 --------(1a)
(2) x 9:
225x + 90y = 459 --------(2a)
(2a) - (1a):
25x = 15
x = 0.6 -------- sub into (1)
20 (0.6) + 9y = 44.4
12 + 9y = 44.4
9y = 44.4 - 12
9y = 32.4
y = 3.6
So the paperback's mass is 0.6 pounds and textbook is 3.6 pounds
Answer:
Answer:
5:6 --> 10:12
Step-by-step explanation:
A good way to think of this is to provide a perspective: there are 5 boys every time there is 6 girls. So if there is 10 boys, that means there would be 12 girls (because 5 *2 = 10 and 6*2 = 12).
tl:dr: 5 *2 = 10 so 6*2 = 12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
12x - 3 = 180 - (7x - 26) supplementary angles
19x = 209
x = 11
m∠DEC = 12(11) - 3 = 129°
m∠BCE = 7(11) - 26 = 51°
M∠ADE = 129 - 72 = 57° exterior angle rule
m∠EDB = 180 - 57 = 123° supplementary angles
m∠DBC = 57° corresponding angle to ADE
<span>the total number of sit ups = 7(60 + 5)
= 7 * 60 + 7 * 5
= 420 + 35
= 455
