Answer:
a = 16
w = 125
x = 120
y = 55
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>FINDING 'a'</u>
31 = a + 46 / 2
62 = a + 46
16 = a
<u>FINDING 'w'</u>
* This section looks Non-Isosceles trapezoid so I will be following the rule according it
w + 55 = 180
w = 125
<u>FINDING 'y'</u>
y = 55
- Because of corresponding angles
<u>FINDING 'x'</u>
* In this case it looks like we are still dealing w/ an non-isosceles trapezoid.
x + 60 = 180
x = 120
Hope this helped ^^
(Please inform me of any mistakes or misunderstandings!)
The correct equation that models for this problem is x over y or x/y.
Let the following values be:
x - would be the money or commissions that Duncan earned.
y - would be the 20 percent that he gives his assistant
When you subtract and add what is in the parentheses you would get -15 so I’m guessing he didn’t go from left to right when working inside the parentheses but when you solve the whole problem out you would get the answer: -41.25 If I missed something or you need me to show the work just let me know but I hope this helps !
if there is any there should not be tho
2:3:4 gives 9 equal parts.
1.20 divided by 9 is 0.133.
2 * 0.133 would be 0.266m
3 * 0.133 would be 0.399m
4 * 0.133 would be 0.533m
To check this calculate 0.533 + 0.399 + 0.266 would be 1.198m (close enough)
