Step One
Find RST
The two base angles are given as equal and one of the is 28. So is the other one.
SRT = 28
STR = 28
All triangles have interior angles that add up to 180 degrees.

RST + SRT + STR = 180
28 + 28 + RST = 180
56 + RST = 180 Subtract 56 from both sides.
RST = 180 - 56
RST = 124

Step two
Find the exterior angle
The exterior angle = Sum of the two remote interior angles (RST + SRT)
The exterior angle = 28 + 124
The exterior angle = 152

Step Three
Find the value of x
2*x = 152 Divide by 2
x = 152 / 2
x = 76

There is a quicker way of finding the exterior angle. I didn't see it until I had written step two.
The exterior angle + STR = 180 degrees. They are supplementary.
The exterior angle + 28 = 180
The exterior angle = 180 - 28
The exterior angle = 152

If I have 5 potatoes weighing a total of 1 kg what would each potato weigh?
aleksley [76]
From the information given, we don't know how much each potato weighs. All we know is that when you add up all 5 of them you get one kilogram.
If all five have exactly the same weight then it's 200 grams.

Idk exactly what your question is asking, but I think you are doing genetics? If you are then you are talking about a punnet square. All four boxes should be heterozygous(Cc). Hope this helps.

Finish the chart for<br> y= 1/2x
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

So we know that y=1/2x. So we apply this equation on each x.

x=-2, so y=1/2*-2 which is -1. so y = -1

x=0, so y = 1/2 * 0 which is 0. so y=0

x=2, so y = 1/2*2 which is 1. so y=1

Hope this helps :))

Answer:

2x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you're going to double x^2, you just need to multiply it by 2. You can just put the 2 in front of the x^2 because the order of operations says to do exponents before multiplication.
