The toy shop stocks tricycles and go-carts.

Mandarinka [93]

Total number of wheels in the toy shop = 37 wheels

Number of wheels for tricycles = 3

Number of wheels for go-carts = 5

Since the total number of tricycles and go-carts are not given, we solve this question using Assumption.

Let's assume: We have 4 tricycles and 4 go-carts

(4 x 3) + (4 x 5)

= 12 + 20

= 32 wheels. This assumption is wrong.

Let's assume: We have 4 tricycles and 5 go-carts

(4 x 3) + (5 x 5)

= 12 + 25

= 37 wheels. This assumption is correct.

Therefore, we have 4 tricycles and 5 go-carts in the toy shop.

Can you help please asap

natita [175]

Answer:

23.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First the shaded area is 28 but there is a triangle so we have to solve the area of the triangle. (formula for triangle: B x H x 1/2) 3 times 3=9 divided by 2=4.5

28-4.5=23.5

Two complementary angles are represented by x and x+14 . find the value of x

qaws [65]

Answer:

$x=38\textdegree$

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that complementary angles <em>always </em>add up to 90°.

We know that the two complementary angles are represented by (x) and (x+14). In other words:

$(x)+(x+14)=90$

So, let's solve for x.

First, combine like terms:

$2x+14=90$

Let's isolate the x by subtracting 14 from both sides:

$(2x+14)-14=(90)-14$

The left cancels. Subtract on the right:

$2x=76$

Divide both sides by 2:

$\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{76}{2}$

The left side cancels. Divide on the right:

$x=38\textdegree$

So, the value of x is 38°.

And we're done!

The polygon abcdef in the coordinate plane shown with area of 18 square units.

<h3>What is a regular polygon?</h3>

A polygon is a geometric figure with a finite number of sides in two dimensions. On the sides or edges of a polygon, straight-line segments are joined end to end to form a closed shape. The vertices, also known as corners, are the points where two line segments meet and form an angle.
