Brian gets 5x and Colin gets x amount.

Brian gets 60 more than Colin, so you get:

5x - x = 60

Simplify to get:

4x = 60

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 15

Brian gets 5x = 5(15) = 75

Colin gets x = 15

75 + 15 = 90

The total amount they get is £90

Find the area of a sector with a central angle of 120° and a diameter of 7.3 cm. Round to the nearest tenth.

Andru [333]

Answer: $14cm^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

diameter=7.3cm

radius= $\frac{diameter}{2}$

= $\frac{7.3}{2}$

=3.65cm

angle =120°

area= $\frac{angle (tita)}{360}$ × $\frac{\pi r^{2} }{1}$

= $\frac{120}{360}$ × $\frac{22}{7}$ × $3.65^{2}$

= $13.95cm^{2}$

≅ $14cm^{2}$

What is 347,168 round to then thoudands

Finger [1]

Answer:

347,168 rounded to the nearest ten thousands would be 350,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

When rounding to the nearest ten thousands, you rely on the thousands place value to indicate whether to round up or down. 5 or higher give it a shove, 4 or less let it rest. 7 is in the thousands place meaning we round up. 4 is in the ten thousands place meaning it becomes 5. 347,168 rounded to the nearest ten thousands would be 350,000.

Please help don’t understand

The angles opposite equal sides are also equal. The sum of angles in a triangle is 180. So 2x + 27 + 2x + 27 + 3x + 28 = 180.

7x + 82 = 180
7x = 98
x = 14

Now plug x into each angle to find their measures.
