so if you take away 1/4 from 3/4 you will get 2/4
3/4 - 1/4 = 2/4 or 1/2
so the male elephant weights 1/2 a ton more than the female
Answer:
Width of the rectangle = 10 feet
Length of the rectangle = 25 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + width)
Let
Width of the rectangle = x feet
Length of the rectangle = 3x - 5 feet
Perimeter of the rectangle = 70 feet
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + width)
70 = 2{x + (3x - 5)}
70 = 2{x + 3x - 5}
70 = 2(4x - 5)
70 = 8x - 10
70 + 10 = 8x
80 = 8x
Divide both sides by 8
x = 80 / 8
= 10
Width of the rectangle = 10 feet
Length of the rectangle = 3(10) - 5
= 30 - 5
= 25 feet
the answer is b. I'm pretty sure at least because the square root it roughly 5.91 and that's between 5 and 6.
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The Angle Addition Postulate states that the measure of an angle formed by two or more angles which are placed side by side is the sum of the measures of the two angles.
Therefore:
∠MON = ∠MOP + ∠NOP (angle addition postulate)
Substituting values gives:
124 = (2x + 1) + (2x + 1)
124 = 2x + 2x + 1 + 1
124 = 4x + 2
subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation:
124 - 2 = 4x + 2 - 2
4x = 122
Dividing through by 4:
4x / 4 = 122 / 4
x = 30.5
Therefore ∠MOP = 2x + 1 = 2(30.5) + 1 = 62°, ∠NOP = 2x + 1 = 2(30.5) + 1 = 62°
∠MOP = 62°, ∠NOP = 62°
