Answer:

x = 11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of any triangle must add up to 180°. Since we have the expressions for each angle: 5x, 8x, and (2x +9), we can solve for the variable of 'x' by adding the expressions together and setting them equal to 180:

5x + 8x + (2x +9) = 180

Combine like terms: 15x + 9 = 180

Use inverse operations: 15x + 9 - 9 = 180 - 9

15x = 171 or x = 11.4

Check: 5(11.4) + 8(11.4) + 2(11.4) + 9 = 57 + 91.2 + 22.8 + 9 = 180

Answer:

1.9 Liters (L) per conatiner

Step-by-step explanation:

If we add the 2.25 L of Orange Juice, 4.75 L or Pineapple Juice, and the 2.5 L of Grape Juice we get 9.5. Since there are 5 different containers we need to divide 9.5 by 5 which is 1.9L of smoothie in each container.
