Question:

James has 14,500g of sand in his sandbox. He brings home another 7,400g of sand from the beach to add to his sandbox. How many kilograms of sand does James have in his sandbox now?

Answer:

The quantity of sandbox James has is 21.9kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Initial quantity of sandbox = 14,500 g

Additional quantity = 7,400 g

Required

Total quantity of sandbox in kg

Tp get the total quantity of sandbox, we simply add in the initial and additional quantity of sandbox together;

This is represented mathematically as follows;

Total = Initial Quantity + Additional Quantity

Total = 14,500 g + 7,400 g

Total = 21,900 g

But the question says the answer should be in kg

1000 g is equivalent to 1 kg

21,900 g will be equivalent to \frac{21,900}{1,000} kg

21,900g = \frac{21,900}{1,000} kg

21,900g = 21.9 kg

Hence, the quantity of sandbox James has is 21.9kg

Answers:

x = 6

Each angle is 45 degrees

The diagram is shown below

=========================================================

Explanation:

Vertical angles are always congruent

Set the two expressions equal to each other and solve for x.

5x+15 = 3x+27

5x-3x = 27-15

2x = 12

x = 12/2

x = 6

As a way to check the answer, replace x with 6 in each expression. We should get the same thing on both sides

5x+15 = 3x+27

5*6+15 = 3*6+27

30+15 = 18+27

45 = 45

Each angle is 45 degrees, so the answer is confirmed.

---------

The diagram is shown below. There are infinitely many ways to draw out the diagram. In the version I drew, the angles aren't vertically aligned but instead they are opposite one another in this X configuration. So the vertical angles could be vertically aligned, but they don't have to be.

In short: draw an X shape and mark any two opposite angles to form the vertical angles.
