Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
i took the quiz
Because the 2 sides of the triangle are the same, they are both 21, the two bottom angles would also be the same.
The 3 inside angles of a triangle must equal 180 degrees.
The top angle is given as 38, so the remaining two angles must equal 180 - 38 = 142 degrees.
Since the 2 bottom angles would be the same, divide 142 by 2 to get x.
X = 142 / 2 = 71 degrees.
Adults = 9
Children = 2
Let x be the number of adults.
11-x is the number of children.
22x + 15(11-x) = 228
22x + 165 - 15x = 228
22x - 15x = 228 - 165
7x = 63
7x / 7 = 63 / 7
x = 9 number of adults.
11 - x = 11 - 9 = 2 number of children.
To check:
22x + 15(11-x) = 228
22(9) + 15(11-9) = 228
198 + 30 = 228
228 = 228
(not my answer btw)
<em>2x - 5 + 3x = 35
</em>
<em>simplify
</em>
<em>5x - 5 = 35
</em>
<em>add 5 to both sides
</em>
<em>5x - 5 + 5 = 35 + 5
</em>
<em>simplify
</em>
<em>5x = 40
</em>
<em>divide both sides by 5
</em>
<em>5x/5 = 40/5
</em>
<em>simplify
</em>
<em>x = 8
