( 'x' is not 144 .)
The supplement of an angle is (180 - x) .
The problem says that (2/3) of 'x' is equal to (180 - x) .
180 - x = 2/3 x
Multiply each side by 3 :
( Note: 3 x 180 = 540 .)
540 - 3x = 2x
Add 3x to each side:
540 = 5x
Divide each side by 5 :
<u>x = 108°</u> .
AB- 3in.
BC- 5in.
CD- 7.2in.
sorry i don't really have an explanation I just looked at the picture and i guess imagined it in my head? lol sorry but here are the answers I hope that helps at least a little bit :))
We have points (-3, 4), (-1, 2), (4, -3) and (6,-5)
Let's verify it's a line by calculating the slopes between successive points.
Slope is change in y over change in x.
(2 - 4)/(-1 - -3) = -2/2 = -1
(-3 - 2)/(4 - -1) = -5/5 = -1
(-5 - -3)/(6 - 4) = -2/2 =-1
Yup. We have a line of slope -1 through point (-1, 2)
y - 2 = -1(x - -1)
y = -x - 1 + 2
y = -x + 1
That's the linear equation for the table.
Answer: Linear equation: y = -x + 1 slope = -1
95/5= 19 (the rate; each person needs 19 kg of food)
So,
You need to multiply that by 23 to get the amount you need for 23 people.
19*23= 437 kg
437 kg is sufficient for 23 people.
I hope this helps!
