Answer:
The three unknown angles X, Y , and Z are:
X = 40, Y = 20, and Z = 120
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's name X the measure of the first angle, Y the measure of the second one, and Z that of the third one.
Then we can create the following equations:
X = 2 Y
Z = 100 + Y
and
X + Y + Z = 180
So we use the first equation and the second one to substitute for the variable X and Z in the thrid equation:
2 Y + Y + (100 + Y) = 180
4 Y + 100 = 180
4 Y = 80
Y = 80/4 = 20
Then X = 40, Y = 20, and Z = 120
Answer:
yes; 1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The length to width ratios of the rectangles are ...
A: 12/8 = 1.5
B: 15/10 = 1.5
C: 30/15 = 2.0
__
Rectangles A and B have the same aspect ratio, so are similar. Rectangle B is a scaled copy of A with a scale factor of 10/8 = 1.25.
Reduce each ratio to its minimum expression to find if they are equal.
35:28

10:8

Since both ratios reduce to 5:4, they are equivalent.
Another way to check a:b is equivalent to c:d, is that a*d = b*c
In this case, this will be true if 35 times 8 is equal to 10 times 28:

Since both products are equal, then the ratios are equivalent.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is simply a units conversion problem. It gives us for the number of passengers, the number of seats per carriage and the number of carriages per train. To change the units from passengers to trains without changing the value, we use the multiplicative identity (that is, 1).
350000 passengers
(350000 passengers) * 1
(350000 passengers) * ((1 carriage)/(32 passengers)) * ((1 train)/(15 carriages)
[note: passengers and carriages cancel. Leaving only trains]
(350000)*(1/32)*(1/15) trains [note: I write this way to paste into MS Excel]
729.1667 trains [oh, but don’t just round this number either up or down]
729 full trains can carry 729*32*15 = 349920 passengers
730 full trains can carry 730*32*15 = 350400 passengers
Now, we can say that 730 trains are adequate to carry 350000 passengers.
