Answer:

4.5 pounds of apples

2.5 pounds of grapes

Step-by-step explanation:

a = # of apples

(a - 2) = # of grapes

1.68a + 2.48(a - 2) = 13.76

1.68a + 2.48a - 4.96 = 13.76

4.16a = 18.72

a = 4.5; Apples

(a - 2) = 2.5;  Grapes

Find the value of x in the triangle listed here. If you could show me the steps, I would appreciate it.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

71°

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle shown is an isosceles triangle. Isosceles triangles have two equal sides and two equal angles. When all 3 angles are added, it should have a sum of 180°. The tip of the triangle is the part of the triangle with the smallest degree/angle. So the two remaining angles are the same amount.

180°=38°+x+?

180°=38°+71°+71°

Both missing angles are the same degree, and when both are added to 38, it has a sum of 180. x is equal to 71°.

The number of square feet of the carpet is the area of the carpet

The number of square feet of outdoor carpet is 32 feet

<h3>How to determine the number of square feet</h3>

To do this, we simply divide the carpet to regular shapes.

The outdoor carpet can be divided to the following shapes from top to bottom

  • Rectangle of 4 ft by 2 ft
  • Rectangle of 6 ft by 2 ft
  • Rectangle of 6 ft by 2 ft

So, the area of the outdoor carpet is:

Area = 4 * 2 + 6 * 2 + 6 * 2

This gives

Area = 32

Hence, the number of square feet of outdoor carpet is 32 feet
